Abstract

A Network simulator is used in different areas such as academic research, industrial development, and Quality Assurance (QA) to design, simulate, verify, and analyze the performance of different networks protocols. Network simulators are also particularly useful in allowing the network designers to test new networking protocols or to change the existing protocols in a controlled and reproducible manner. NS2 is often growing to include new protocols. NS2 is an object-oriented simulator, written in C++, with an OTcl interpreter as a front end. In this paper we discuss NS2 simulator in detail.
