How to use Ping app with Other Network Protocols (Flooding, AdaptiveProbabilisticBroadcast)

[Edgars Pabērzs]

Hi,

I was reading the User's Guide about Other Network Protocols, but never figured out how to use simple Ping app together with these protocols. My network consists of several AdhocHosts, Ipv4NetworkConfigurator, RadioMedium, and I use GlobalARP.

I tried:

• Added a Flooding submodule for the Ipv4NetworkLayer module and changed the PingApp.networkProtocol to Flooding. This kind a worked and ICMP requests were flooded towards destination, but when destination's Icmp module sent back the replay it used the Ipv4 module instead of Flooding and tried to route back the message. The replay get dropped, because there is no routing. I was hoping to send the replay in the same manner as request (flooding). How to do this?

• On other option I tried to use generic (SimpleNetworkLayer), defined Flooding as network protocol (**.generic.np.typename = "Flooding") and changed the PingApp.networkProtocol, but when running the simulation the PingApp always shows error "Unknown protocol".  

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Take a look at the Flooding config in examples/inet/hierarchical99/networklayer.ini. In this example, one host pings another in a hierarchical network using flooding as the network layer protocol while both IPv4 and IPv6 are disabled.
