Thank you, it helped me a lot.
I run the example in the way you see here and it worked fine.

 # NS_LOG="PacketSink=level_all|prefix_time|prefix_node" ./waf --run scratch/simple-global-routing

but I like to know is there any way to limit the log to an specific time interval ?

Hi,

I am not aware of any method to do that. For sure this command line configuration will not work for the time interval. 

You might try the Simulator::Schedule and the LogComponentEnable method but I think this is only configured before the simulation starts, you can't stop it afterwards.

You can always create a script to post-process your trace file and crop it for the time interval you are interested.

I haven't tried it but you should be able to Schedule LogComponentEnable to turn on/off logging when you want. (IIRC the enabled state is checked on each invocation of NS_LOG)
