Re: Wireless Network Emulation in Virtualized Environment with ns-3

Hi Chasm

Have you studied the NS-3 documentation?

Does anyone have any good resources on emulating a 802.11 wireless network using ns-3 in a virtualized Linux environment for the purpose of experimenting with various wireless tools?


Specifically, I need to be able to:

- Create a virtualized wireless network topology (including nodes, links, queues, routing, etc.)

- —Create a simulated Data Demand on the Network (simulating traffic from web browsers, FTP transfers, Peer-to-Peer Searching and Downloads, On--Off Data Sources, etc)

- Control the Simulation

- Interact with the emulated wireless network (simulation) from a separate Linux box that is able to monitor traffic, etc.


Resources that  I have found that are similar to what I am trying to do are:
