How to learn ns3?

[Mukul Shukla]

Dear All,

I am new to ns3 and want to know how to learn ns3? What are the pre-requisite tools that I should know to start working in ns3? As the ns3 is totally built on c++. how much depth in C++ programming is required?

Thanks.

Start here: http://www.nsnam.org/docs/release/3.12/tutorial/singlehtml/index.html

ns-3 is very C++ heavy. I suggest going through a good C++ book if don't have any background in it.

 

Thanks.

Dear Lalith

Kindly do suggest me a good c++ book to build up the background. As I have some background of C++ (not very good though), I will go through the tutorial pointed by you. Kindly also let me know what C++ concepts are sufficient to start building the basic simulations?

Thank you for help.

Well, the only C++ book I've ever used is: http://www.amazon.com/C-Complete-Reference-Herbert-Schildt/dp/0072226803

I doubt it's the best out there, but it should teach you the basics needed to start hacking on ns-3. About basic simulations, you won't need more than basic C++ to go about it (just some lines inside a main() block).

 

Thank you for help.

hey mukul if you r using GNOME .....then you shoul have some pre-
requisite ......

I have grabbed the book "C++ Complete Reference", but it will take sometime to learn all the details of c++. But meantime I want to know what are Pythonbindings? I have read that it can be used to write simulation scripts in Python. Can somebody help to understand more about the python bindings. Also point me to some basic simulation scripts written in python.

Thanks.

You can call C++ functions from Python programs using ns-3's Python
modules. For example, take a look at these files:
examples/tutorial/first.py
examples/wireless/mixed-wireless.py
examples/wireless/wifi-ap.py
examples/routing/simple-routing-ping6.py

Regards,

Vedran

But where can I find more details about python bindings? Exactly, I want to read about writing simulation scripts using python bindings. I also want to know how to install python bindings? Does it get automatically installed while installing ns3? Is there any tutorial about python bindings?

Hi Mukul,

I want to work on NS3 for my project.
I am assuming since this post is approx. 3 yrs old u must be knowing NS3 quite nicely by now.
Could you help me by guiding me regarding NS3.

Hi..ma'am..
        I want to learn ns3. i started by simulating the examples, but i didn't understand much what is happening. i had gone through nsnam website. but i could not found where to start. my aim is to understand the tracing system in ns3. so that i can plot graph (Packet loss vs Distance) using gnu in the process of wifi channel implementation.
