TraceGraph Helpppppp!!!

Dear all,

I was trying to use trace graph to plot graph for my simulation. However, it seems like there is something i have not understood about it. Everytime i try to plot the graph say for one of my tracefiles and i do trgrpah <name of file> on the terminal it does launch the tracegrpah window but it doesn't plot anything. Now what i have done is create a .ip file but what i am not sure about is do i need to write my own awk file to make it plot a graph say for the delay or throughput.

I am sure you can tell that i am way losttt so please please any help on tracegraph would be appreciated. I would be more happy if some one can tell me the basics in plotting a trace graph or the things i need to do or don't!

Anticipating for your kind cooperation, I would like to thank you very much thank you!

Best regards!!

to use the trace graph you have to do some operations:

- get the information taht you need from the trace file (*.tr) exemple delay, loss ratio by using either awk langage or Perl langage. and you will put this results by redirection on a file (*.xgr)
- you go under ns-allinone/bin and you put this command :
./xgraph *.xgr (you have to look if there is some needed options)...

that is the general principle of using xgraph..

NB : i hope that i help you, because i have just began using ns..

good luck
