Reason: First post was not clear so I didn't get reply.

You need to read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature, along with the LQ Rules about text speak (and not using it). We are happy to help you with specific questions, but there doesn't seem to be one here.
If you don't HAVE NS2 (or 3) installed, your next step is to obviously INSTALL IT. After that, you need to write a script with the appropriate awk statements to process the data. There are ample sets of documentation, links for scripts and software, and instructions on how to use such things if you look for them.
Thank u for responding to my post it gives me confidence. Pls d documentation scripts you said where can I get them.I mean web address. Thank u.
Again, you need to read the LQ Rules about **NOT USING TEXT SPEAK** It's "you" not 'u', "Please" not 'pls", and read the "Question Guidelines" about doing basic research first.
Again, we are happy to help, but we aren't going to do things for you. You can perform your own Google searches and find what you need. We are't going to look things up and send you links.
Distribution: PCLinuxOS2023 Fedora38 + 50+ other Linux OS, for test only.

@Nana hadiza, welcome to LQ.

using Ns2 .. I must install Ubuntu
ns2 requires a "Linux OS" installed to a hard disk partition.
( Not an install into Windowsİ or into a virtual machine.)
Ubuntu will work with some ns2 simulations, not all.
Recommended for adding old code is CentOS 6.10, 32bits http://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/cent...86-LiveDVD.iso
