> The Network Simulator ns-2: Frequently Asked Questions
>
> (This FAQ is also on the web at
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-faq.html.)
>
> * _Where do I get ns?_
>
> From the ns web site at
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns.html and
> the download page
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-tests.html.
>
> * _What platforms does ns run on and what kind of hardware do I
> need?_
>
> Please see "where to start" on the building ns web page:
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-build.html#start.
>
> * _What should I do if I have trouble downloading/extracting ns?_
>
> This question is answered in detail at
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html#downloading.
>
> * _What should I do if I encounter problems building ns?_
>
> Check:
> 1. the README that comes in the distribution (very brief),
> 2. the "installation problems, bug fixes and help" web page
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html,
> 3. the archives of the ns-users mailing list
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-lists.html,
> 4. post a bug report (see below)
>
http://www.isi.edu/cgi-bin/nsnam/reportbug.cgi.
>
> * _What do I do after I successfully build ns?_
>
> + Put the path to your ns executable into your PATH environment
> + Put the path to your otcl into your LD_LIBRARY_PATH
> environment
> + Put the path to your tcl library into your TCL_LIBRARY
> environment
>
> * _Where can I find documentation for ns?_
>
> All documentation is linked from the main ns web page
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/. Documentation includes a tutorial
> (originally from Marc Greis) and a reference manual (ns notes and
> documentation).
>
> * _Words, words, words... that documentation is nice, but where are
> some sample scripts I can start from?_
>
> Many sample scripts can be found in the ns distribution in
> ~ns-2/tcl/ex and ~ns-2/tcl/test.
>
> * _What protocols does ns support?_
>
> A lot! Almost all variants of TCP, several forms of multicast,
> wired networking, several ad hoc routing protocols and propagation
> models (but not cellular phones), data diffusion, satellite, and
> other stuff. See the documentation (described above) for details,
> or download ns and look.
>
> * _How do I know that ns correctly implements these protocols?_
>
> Ns has validation tests that cover many protocols, see
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-tests.html. However, ultimately
> users are responsible for verifying that ns is accurate for their
> purposes---since we cannot foresee all the ways ns may be used, we
> cannot test all cases with all inputs.
>
> * _Are there any contributed/additional protocols not in the main
> distribution?_
>
> Yes, please see the contributed code web page
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-contributed.html. The mailing list
> archives can also be helpful (see below).
>
> * _How should I get started doing something (like implementing a new
> protocol or trying an experiment)?_
>
> We recommend that you look through the tutorial (see
> documentation, above), then start with an example program that is
> most similar to yours (in the tutorial, or in tcl/ex or tcl/test
> in the distribution), and then start changing things.
>
> * _What should I do to compile ns to reflect my changes if I've
> modified some .cc or .h files?_
>
> go to ns directory and run "make" or "make depend; make"
>
> * _How do I subscribe to the ns-users mailing list? How do I search
> old list archives? I can't take any more---how do I get off this
> list?_
>
> To subscribe or unsubscribe, see
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-lists.html. The list archive is at
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-lists.html.
>
> * _What if I have a question that's not answered here?_
>
> If you've checked the installation problems and bug fixes web page
> (
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html) and there's no
> answer to your question, you may want to file a bug report or post
> a question to the ns-user's mailing list.
>
> First, you should check the archive of the list at
>
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-lists.html. Your question may
> already be answered there.
>
> If not, you can post a bug report using the web form at
>
http://www.isi.edu/cgi-bin/nsnam/reportbug.cgi.
>
> If your question is NOT about ns implementation bugs, you may wish
> to post to the list. First you should subscribe. Subscription
> instructions are at

> _Please note that mail sent to the list is publicly distributed

>
> When posting bug reports, please _always_ include information
> including at least (the bug report form includes spaces for
> these):
> + what version of ns you're using,
> + what operating system you're running on (not just Linux or
> Solaris, but RedHat version 7.0 or Solaris 2.4---send us the
> output of "uname -a"),
> + what specific behavior you see (if ns doesn't compile, what's
> the specific error; if TCP does something strange, what
> exactly did it do [send a pointer to a packet trace]),
> + what behavior you expected to see (if ns doesn't compile this
> is obvious, but if TCP does something strange, why is it
> strange, where is the TCP spec violated?),
> + pointers to your script detailed output files,
> + a statement that "yes, I've read the FAQ, ns-problems page,
> and manual and I couldn't find the answer there" (or a
> statement about why you didn't do that yet :-)
>
> A reminder about mailing list etiquette:
> + Please check the web pages and list archives before posting
> your question.
> + Please keep the body of your post to simple ASCII, not HTML.
> + Please do _not_ send large attachments (if what you have is
> bigger than a few kilobytes, put it on a web page and send a
> URL)
> + Before posting a question like "did people see my post" or
> "the list seems down", please check the archives (you can
> answer this question more accurately by checking yourself
> rather than asking).
> + Please don't post subscribe/unsubscribe requests directly to
> the list, use the lists' information page. (see the web page
> mentioned above for details).
