http://isi.edu/nsnam/ns/doc-stable/node208.html should be the answer. On the
other hand you can generate a pseudo-random number via the shell $((RANDOM))
and pass the number as an argument to the TCL script.

ns your-scenario.tcl $((RANDOM))

and in you tcl script (your-scenario.tcl) you can get the argument via

set rand_number [lindex $argv 0]

>thanks!

You are welcome!
