good day everyone , i hope you all having a great time .. dear all you have been very helpful i have a request , i need to install the nist-mob in my ns2 but im using ns-2.29 version so in order to complete the installation in need to configured some files manually and i really don't know how , i do have the steps on how to do it but is just not clear to me , can you please walk me through these steps .

II- Version This documentation is based on the following versions: - pre-release2 of the wimax model developed by NIST - ns-2.29/ns-2.30/ns-2.31 III- Installation using the patch file The patch file is only provided for ns-2.31. Use manual installation for other versions. a- Using the ns-allinone installation step1: install the patch by running "patch -p0 <patch-ns-2.31-041707" from the ns-allinone-2.31 directory. step2: re-run "./configure ; make clean ; make" in the ns-2.31 directory. b- From the ns-2.31 directory step1: install the patch by running "patch -p1 <patch-ns-2.31-041707" step2: re-run "./configure ; make clean ; make" in the ns-2.31 directory. IV- Manual installation The source code provided works with some earlier versions (ns-2.28 for example). The following steps need to be followed to install the wimax extension: step1: add the wimax directory in the ns installation step2: add the tcl/wimax directory step3: add the tcl/lib/ns-wimax.tcl file step4: add the mac/mac-stat.h file step5: edit Makefile.in and: * add -I ./wimax to the list of directories to include (in the definition of INCLUDE) * add the object files before the last line (@V_STLOBJ@) of the OBJ_CC list: wimax/ofdmphy.o \ wimax/mac802_16pkt.o \ wimax/serviceflowqos.o \ wimax/serviceflow.o \ wimax/serviceflowhandler.o \ wimax/connection.o \ wimax/connectionmanager.o \ wimax/peernode.o \ wimax/mac802_16.o \ wimax/mac802_16SS.o \ wimax/mac802_16BS.o \ wimax/sduclassifier.o \ wimax/destclassifier.o \ wimax/mac802_16timer.o \ wimax/wimaxneighborentry.o \ wimax/neighbordb.o \ wimax/scheduling/wimaxscheduler.o \ wimax/scheduling/bsscheduler.o \ wimax/scheduling/ssscheduler.o \ wimax/scheduling/ulsubframetimer.o \ wimax/scheduling/dlsubframetimer.o \ wimax/scheduling/burst.o \ wimax/scheduling/contentionslot.o \ wimax/scheduling/contentionrequest.o \ wimax/scheduling/contentiontimer.o \ wimax/scheduling/dlburst.o \ wimax/scheduling/ulburst.o \ wimax/scheduling/framemap.o \ wimax/scheduling/phypdu.o \ wimax/scheduling/profile.o \ wimax/scheduling/subframe.o \ wimax/scheduling/scanningstation.o \ wimax/scheduling/wimaxctrlagent.o \ * add the ns-wimax.tcl entry before (@V_NS_TCL_LIB_STL@): tcl/lib/ns-wimax.tcl \ step6: edit the file common/packet.h and add a new packet type PT_WIMAXBS into the packet_t enumeration and "name_[PT_WIMAXBS]="wimaxCtrl";" to the class p_info step7: edit the file tcl/lib/ns-lib.tcl and add the line "source ns-wimax.tcl" step8: edit the file tcl/lib/ns-packet.tcl and add "802_16" to the list defined in the list of packets (look for "foreach prot") step9: re-run "./configure ; make clean ; make" in the ns-2.31 directory. V- Compilation options After using the patch or manual installation, you need to recompile the code. To do so, execute "make clean; ./configure ; make" in the ns-2.31 directory. To debug the wimax code, edit the Makefile and add the -DDEBUG_WIMAX switch in the DEFINE entry. VI- Running examples There are 3 examples located in the tcl/wimax directory: - wimax1.tcl: example where one or more MNs communicate with a sink node through a BS. - test-be.tcl: shows multiple nodes communicating via one BS. When synchronizing traffic or increasing the number of nodes, bandwidth requests collide and packets are dropped. - l2handover.tcl: a MN is loosing connection with its current BS and scans to find another point of attachment. - datarate.tcl: shows an evaluation of the performance in 802.16 for different modulations. (run sh datarate802.16 to run the scripts or specify the 2 parameters:profile and cyclic prefix) VII - Version history prerelease-092206: Initial pre-release prerelease-041507: Updated pre-release - Updated install document. - Increased robustness for failure during scanning or handover. - Extended support for MIH. - Renamed class NeighborEntry to WimaxNeighborEntry to fix name conflict with another class defined in diffusion3 directory. - Fixed bugs to enable computation of statistics (printed when "Mac/802_16 set printf_stats_ 1" is used). - Updated l2handover script where RXThreshold_ was not properly set. Updated script to also show scanning/handover configuration. - Fixed traces to show reception of management packets. - Developed new scheduler using bandwidth requests. - Move state machines from schedulers to MAC classes - Provides patch and source for ns-2.31. thank you all for everything . best regards
