ftp application

[mohamed...@gmail.com]

dear all,i appreciate your help
i want to install ftp application with a packet size=256 bytes and inter-arrival-time=16.625 to install it in 10 ue in lte
after i searched this group i found that most people simulate ftp with bulksend helper application but the set attribute does not support setting packet size or inter-arrival time(packet interval)
the question is how to set packet size and inter-arrival-time for bulksend and if it is not possible what is the kind of application i can use to implement my scenario

Hi,

If you want to model your FTP application with a constant packet size and inter-arrival, then you are modelling it as a CBR, which in NS-3 can be implemented with OnOffApplication with OffTime=0.

However, as others suggest, FTP application has generally variable inter-arrival and packet size and a BulkSend is advised.

At the bottom line, it's your system and your design decisions. 

Regards,
