Dear Friends

My name is Goklas Giovanni Sitompul, I'm a student from Indonesia. I'm doing research on FSR protocol performance on a VANET network using NS2.35. But, I have not managed to find a patch file that can be used for the simulation. Do any of you have the patching file to run FSR simulation in ns2.35? If so, may I ask for the file? Or any other help maybe. I need it ASAP.

Thanks..

Goklas.

Hi.

Google, ns235 fsr
https://www.google.com/webhp?hl=all&gws_rd=ssl#hl=en&q=ns235+fsr

The first hit is ... the patch FSR_ns235.patch
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/fsr-protocol-4175610147/
Post #4 in the link is a build example. Simulation examples: post #5, post #7.

Note : I have a text saying "tools_is-compiled-with-g++34" : ns-2.35/tools/**.
I.e. you may need to install the {Redhat gcc34, g++34} : gcc-3.4.6.

Example gcc-3.4.6, Ubuntu 12.04 ... Ubuntu 17.10 , amd64

I have followed the instruction from this link:

But, when I execute ./install , I got this error:

Missing OS information : Ubuntu 12.04, Is it 64 or 32bits ?

No new instructions say gcc41, g++41 : See the time stamp.
Please read my above posts : g++34 !

It is 32bits

I already installed gcc-3.4 and g++-3.4

Now my gcc --version is:

gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 (Ubuntu 3.4.6-6ubuntu5)

But when I ./install , I still got this error:

Ubuntu 12.04 : No issues with FSR. All files can be compiled with the default gcc, g++.

12.04.5 :

tar xvf ns-allinone-2.35_gcc5.tar.gz
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S255p3kFXNVVlxR0ZNRGVORjQ/view?usp=sharing
cd ns-allinone-2.35/
./install

... and the new executable 'ns' is created i ns-2.35/

cd ns-2.35/
cp ns ns235-fsr
sudo cp ns235-fsr /usr/local/bin/

My latest post ( 2 hours ago ) is about the 32bits Ubuntu 12.04.5, which is the OS you have.

I have all versions installed, and made an OK result with both Ubuntu 12.04 versions.

Instead of building ns-allinone-2.35, you can install /usr/local/bin/ns-FSR-32 :
Download the Ubuntu package 'fsr-ns_235-ubuntu12_i386.deb'
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S255p3kFXNZWNQSmVGdHgtemc/view?usp=sharing

The package install :
$ cd Downloads/
... and click the package, and the 'Package Installer' will install it.

Simulation : $ ns-FSR-32 fsr.tcl
etc. etc. examples from FSR-examples-11.17.tar.gz

The original FSR + 802.15.4 is : fsr-zigbee.tcl → "Fisheye State Routing".
Please read the files. Some have links / INFO text as a headline.

All other examples : FSR and/or 802.15.4 examples.
Some are FSR suggestions : 10.tcl → Follow the links → Please read the file.
10.tcl line 3 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/invalid-command-name-agent-consbuffer-4175412391/#8

Conclusion : Not all examples are perfect. Not all examples are FSR.
..... But all examples are meant for anybody to improve.
