Re: [ns] run examples in ns2
you should add relevant directories to the environment variables, otherwise bash could not locate where ns is.

[ns] Where can I find SCTP module for ns-2.26?
Hi everyone, I'm looking for SCTP module for ns-2.26. I know sctp is now integrated into newer versions of ns-2 distributions. But I need the patch for ns-2.26. I googled it but found none. I tried to move the sctp-related codes in ns-2.31 to ns-2.26 but I failed. It will cause segmentation fault during simulation. Can anyone help me? Thanks a lot!

Re: [ns] TCP segment size vs. IP packet size
1) It's the size in Bytes of the TCP payload, excluding TCP header and IP header. eg. If you set packetSize_ of the TCP Agent to be 1000, then the actual size of the IP datagram is 1040. You can validate this from the trace file. 2) I don't think it matters anything. Queue limit is measured in packets. The size of the packet doesn't affect anything. 3) I'm not sure about it. Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2007 15:15:21 +0200 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ns-users@ISI.EDU Subject: [ns] TCP segment size vs. IP packet size Hi, I need some help distinguishing cases when NS is thinking about TCP segments vs. when it's thinking about IP packets, since it seems to me that they're used almost interchangeably. In particular: 1) Is packetSize_ in TPC agents the IP packet size or TCP segement size? 2) When using a command like $ns queue-limit $n0 $n1 100, is the queue limit expressed as the number of TCP segments or IP packets? Does the distinction even make sense in this case? 3) When simulating web traffic (such as in tcl/ex/web-traffic.tcl) using a command like $pool create-session 1 $numPage 0.2 $interPage $pageSize $interObj $objSize is objSize in TCP segments or IP packets? Again, is the distinction meaningful here? -- Jasin _ 用 Live Search 搜尽天下资讯! http://www.live.com/?searchOnly=true

[ns] a question about Nils-Erik Mattsson's DCCP module
I'm using Mattsson's DCCP module under ns-2.26. But when I simulate DCCP in large BDP networks, I sometimes get the following error and the program exits: DCCPAckVector::sendAckVector - Failed to add ack vector to option: err -1, size 256 I took a look at the source code and found that the error stems from the length of the options exceeding DCCP_OPT_MAX_LENGTH(=255 by default). So I set the macro to be 1023, hoping that would solve the problem. But when I run the simulation again after modifying the macro, I get some other errors: 21.610164, DCCP/TCPlike(_o216)::send_packetRecv() - No ack vector on acknowledgment! 21.610184, DCCP/TCPlike(_o216)::processOption() - ECN check failed! The only change I made to the source code is just setting the value of the macro bigger. I don't know what's wrong. Can anyone help me? _ 用 Live Search 搜尽天下资讯! http://www.live.com/?searchOnly=true

Re: [ns] segmentation fault
segmentation fault usually stems from illegal access to the memory. check your code to see whether you illegally try to access some memory when it is already deallocated. usually it's because using pointers incorrectly.
