NS2网络仿真的历程

NS2网络仿真的过程

NS2网络仿真的过程可以总结为:
1、初始化
    创建ns simulator
    创建.tr文件(记录仿真结果)
    创建.nam文件(记录仿真过程)
    设置结束函数
    设置仿真中所需的参数
2、创建仿真拓扑
    创建节点
    创建并设置链路
    设置链路各链路在nam中的排列方式
3、创建流量
    探测流量:向网络中添加的额外流量,通过对这些流量进行统计分析可以获得端到端性能参数,在ns2中可以通过设置CBR、UDP、TCP等形式的流量实现。
    背景流量:用于模拟网络中已经存在的流量,可以有TCP、UDP、短时TCP等多种形式。(添加准则:尽量能够反映实际网络中流量的特性)
4、设置步骤
    设置流量的产生、结束
5、结束仿真

我们可以对照下面的例子来看看仿真过程:

#Create a simulator object
set ns [new Simulator]

#Define different colors for data flows
$ns color 1 Blue
$ns color 2 Red

#Open the nam trace file
set nf [open out.nam w]
$ns namtrace-all $nf

#Define a 'finish' procedure
proc finish {} {
        global ns nf
        $ns flush-trace
	#Close the trace file
        close $nf
	#Execute nam on the trace file
        exec nam out.nam &
        exit 0
}

#Create four nodes
set n0 [$ns node]
set n1 [$ns node]
set n2 [$ns node]
set n3 [$ns node]

#Create links between the nodes
$ns duplex-link $n0 $n2 1Mb 10ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n1 $n2 1Mb 10ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n3 $n2 1Mb 10ms SFQ

$ns duplex-link-op $n0 $n2 orient right-down
$ns duplex-link-op $n1 $n2 orient right-up
$ns duplex-link-op $n2 $n3 orient right

#Monitor the queue for the link between node 2 and node 3
$ns duplex-link-op $n2 $n3 queuePos 0.5

#Create a UDP agent and attach it to node n0
set udp0 [new Agent/UDP]
$udp0 set class_ 1
$ns attach-agent $n0 $udp0

# Create a CBR traffic source and attach it to udp0
set cbr0 [new Application/Traffic/CBR]
$cbr0 set packetSize_ 500
$cbr0 set interval_ 0.005
$cbr0 attach-agent $udp0

#Create a UDP agent and attach it to node n1
set udp1 [new Agent/UDP]
$udp1 set class_ 2
$ns attach-agent $n1 $udp1

# Create a CBR traffic source and attach it to udp1
set cbr1 [new Application/Traffic/CBR]
$cbr1 set packetSize_ 500
$cbr1 set interval_ 0.005
$cbr1 attach-agent $udp1

#Create a Null agent (a traffic sink) and attach it to node n3
set null0 [new Agent/Null]
$ns attach-agent $n3 $null0

#Connect the traffic sources with the traffic sink
$ns connect $udp0 $null0  
$ns connect $udp1 $null0

#Schedule events for the CBR agents
$ns at 0.5 "$cbr0 start"
$ns at 1.0 "$cbr1 start"
$ns at 4.0 "$cbr1 stop"
$ns at 4.5 "$cbr0 stop"
#Call the finish procedure after 5 seconds of simulation time
$ns at 5.0 "finish"

#Run the simulation
$ns run

该例子运行结果如下:
