NAME OF THE STUDENT: Jess John ROLL NO.: 33

AIM Use a simulator (Eg. NS2) to understand the functioning of network
simulation tools.
LEARNING The students will be able to install ns2 and use TCL display
OBJECTIVE animation of network flow.
LEARNING The Students will be able to set up an NS2 Simulator and study
OUTCOME functions of packet tracer.
COURSE CSL 502.1: Identify the important networking commands in Linux and
OUTCOME understand their function.
CSL502.3: Use Network tool NS2 simulator to simulate and
explore networking algorithms and protocols.
PROGRAM PO1,PO2,PO3,PO4,PO5,PO9,PO10,PSO1,PSO2,PSO3
OUTCOME
BLOOM'S Apply.
TAXONOMY LEVEL
THEORY NS2 is an open-source simulation tool that runs on Linux. It is a discrete

event simulator targeted at networking research and provides substantial
support for simulation of routing, multicast protocols and IP protocols,
such as UDP, TCP, RTP and SRM over wired and wireless (local and satellite)
networks.Nam is a Tcl/TK based animation tool for viewing network
simulation traces and real world packet traces. It supports topology layout,
packet level animation, and various data inspection tools.
❖ Installation Procedure
1.Install it by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo apt-get install -y nam

2.Run the following command in your terminal to install ns-2
sudo apt-get install -y ns2
3.Check your installation
1.gedit add.tcl
Simple addition of two nos using TCL.
set a 20 set b 30
set c [expr $a+$b]
puts $c
3.Run in the terminal using ns-2:
ns add.tcl
❖ Write a program performing network simulation using NS2.
