Installing NS-MIRACLE to NS-2.33

Download: 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.
