Installing INET Framework into OMNET++
Download: Inet Framework
Download: Inetmanet Framework
To install:
You should have a working OMNeT++ installation, version 4.0 or later.
It must be compiled with dynamic NED loading enabled (WITH_NETBUILDER=yes setting).
1. Make sure your OMNeT++ installation works OK (e.g. try running the samples)
and it is in the path (to test, try the command "which nedtool").
2. Change to the INET directory.
3. Type "make" to build the inet executable (debug version). Use "make MODE=release" to build release version.
Problem:
-lpcap is not found
Solution:
yum install libpcap-devel
Problem:
make: warning: Clock skew detected. Your build may be incomplete.
Solution:
cd directory
# Remove output files
make clean
# Put timestamps on all files equal to current time
find . -exec touch {} \;
# Rebuild all output files
make
Finally, try running the demo simulations. Change into examples/ and type
"./rundemo".
Problem:
Error during startup: Cannot load library '../../../src//libinet.so': ../../../src//libinet.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
For INET:
Solution:
SELinux blocks the library from running. Free the library with the command:
chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/home/user/inet/out/gcc-debug/src/libinet.so'
For INETMANET:
The problem occurs due to "makefile"
1. Copy everything from "Makefile_dll" and replace all of "Makefile"
2. Execute "buildMakefiles" shell file with the command: sh buildMakefiles
3. Finally, compile with the command: make
4. You probably need this as last step:
chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/home/user/inetmanet/out/gcc-debug/src/libinet.so'
Then you should be able to run the demo in the examples;

Installing NS-MIRACLE to NS-2.33
Download: NS-MIRACLE-1.2.2
Download: Paper on NS-MIRACLE-1.2.2
NS-MIRACLE: Multi-InteRfAce Cross-Layer Extension library for the Network Simulator
NS-MIRACLE is a set of libraries designed to enhance the functionalities provided by the Network Simulator ns2. It provides an efficient and embedded engine for handling cross-layer messages and, at the same time, enables the coexistance of multiple modules within each layer of the protocol stack. For instance, multiple IP, link layers, MACs or physical layers can be specified and used within the same node. The NS-MIRACLE framework facilitates the implementation and the simulation of modern communication systems in ns2; moreover, due to its modularity, the code will be portable, re-usable and extensible.
Installation of NS-MIRACLE:
1. Unpack the nsmiracle package at /home/username and cd into the newly created directory:
Command:
tar xzf nsmiracle-1.2.2.tar.gz
cd nsmiracle-1.2.2
2. In the /nsmiracle-1.2.2, do the following:
Command:
./configure --with-ns-allinone=/home/username/ns-allinone-2.33 --prefix=/home/username --disable-static --with-dei80211mr=/home/username/ns-allinone-2.33/dei80211mr-1.1.4
3. After that, execute as following:
Command:
make
make install
4. Lastly, check that your installed NS-MIRACLE is working by running the example found in /home/username/nsmiracle-1.2.2/samples
Command:
cd samples
ns link_with_errors_cbr.tcl
You should get the result as shown if NS-MIRACLE is installed successfully:
Simulating........................................done!
Packet Error Ratio : 0.050000
Throughput : 68360.897567
Tracefile : /tmp/link_with_errors_cbr.tcl.tr
NOTE:
- remember to adapt all paths to your needs, unless you're using /home/username.
- make sure that the tests run by ./configure have been successful, in particular the tests for ns-allinone
- after running make install, make sure that the path in which library have been installed is in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

My current dilemma....
I am using NS-MIRACLE, the extension of NS-2 in order to create multi technology nodes. My intention is to create nodes with two interfaces, which are UMTS interface and WLAN interface respectively.
For long I have been analyzing the sample codes in NS-MIRACLE, but still I am unable to create my dual interface nodes yet. HELP!~~ @ @

Installing NS-2 in Fedora 10
Download: ns-allinone-2.33
I have used VMWARE with Fedora 10 to install NS-2 for my convenience. The steps are as below:
Pre-installation NS-2:
1. Make sure FEDORA 10 is updated completely at the autoupdate.
2. Have the following install at TERMINAL. You must be the "root" to do this:
yum install autoconf
yum install automake
yum install gcc-c++
yum install libX11-devel
yum install xorg-x11-proto-devel
yum install libXt-devel
yum install libXmu-devel
yum install tk
yum install tcl
yum install make
yum install perl
yum install gnuplot
Installation for NS-2 in FEDORA 10:
1. Unzipped NS-2.33 file:
tar -xvzf ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz
2. Go into ns-2.33 directory:
cd ns-allinone-2.33
3. Install ns-2.33
./install
4. Set environment:
gedit ~/.bashrc
Replace the following to your .bashrc file, double check your own installation path and version. Set the environment at "cd /home/username" as a user and not the "root":
# .bashrc5. If your environment is set properly, you should be able to run the command "ns" and get the result "%".
