If you mean the software from here:
http://www.eawag.ch/forschung/siam/s...order/index_EN
I suggest you fill in the order form and read the manual when it arrives. Then, when you know which Linux distributions the manual refers to you can look to their websites for help. If you then run into problems you can ask here and i am sure people will help you.

Welcome to LQ.

Aquasim for ns-2.30, post # 8 here ..
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...asim-855532/#8

Fedora 18, ns2 prerequisites : # yum install \
gcc-c++ compat-gcc-34-c++ automake autoconf libtool patch libXmu-devel

Note : A 32bits Fedora should be preferred.
A 64bits OS will create an 'ns' with reduced functionality.

#knudfl..........#5..........

i have a doubt...

1) you mean to say that for installing the Aqua-sim_ns230 i also need to install ns-allinone-2.30.

knudfl · 01-23-2013, 02:28 AM

# 6

Short :
When you do 1), 2), 3), you will have an 'ns-allinone-2.30' with Aquasim.

The details : Please read the thread linked in post # 5.

I had downloaded Fedora 18(32 bit) from http://download.fedoraproject.org/pu...6-Live-KDE.iso
but when i was doing installation it shows problem in "bootloader installation".... how it could be like this because it is their( fedora projects)own site....... disgusting ..

John VV · 01-25-2013, 01:02 PM

please read and study the install instructions

Read The "bleep" Manual ( RTFM )

the fedora install instructions ARE on the fedora site
but if you can not be bothered to find them
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/index.html
--- the install guide ---
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/...ide/index.html

Linux is not windows
you need to learn how to use the operating system ( just like you had to learn how to use MS windows )

exploreuwsn · 02-01-2013, 06:52 AM

one problem is solved.... i have installed fedora 13...

Now the second problem is how to install the BSNL EVDO 800m data card for accessing the internet..
Third problem is how to install the Aquasim in fedora 13.......(I have downloaded Aqua-sim_ns230 from https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7S2...GQ2/edit?pli=1)

# 10 : Please edit your posts. Bold writing is not appreciated.
Makes the text less readable.

Installing Aquasim. See posts # 5 and # 7.

Fedora 13 is old and unsupported. Please don't use it. Install Fedora 17 (or 18).
Then your internet issue may be solved ?

# 10.

There is actually a version of ns-2.30 with included Aquasim
... from "Aquasim" http://obinet.engr.uconn.edu/wiki/index.php/Aqua-Sim
>>> Aqua-Sim-1.0 Release http://ubinet.engr.uconn.edu/aqua_pa...ua-Sim-1.0.tgz

The install is : 1) tar xvf Aqua-Sim-1.0.tgz
2) cd Aqua-Sim-1.0/
3) export CC=gcc34 CXX=g++34
4) ./install

# 10.

The third option : You don't have to build Aquasim.
Now there is an rpm package for Fedora 13 .. 18 (and for CentOS 6)

Package, aquasim-ns-2.30-1.el6.i686.rpm
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7S2...it?usp=sharing
... providing /usr/local/bin/ns-aqua

Can be installed with : 1) cd Downloads/
2) su <enter-password>
3) yum install aquasim-ns-2.30-1.el6.i686.rpm

The examples in ns-2.30/underwatersensor/uw_tcl/, please do :
$ ns-aqua hop_by_hop_VBF_example.tcl
etc. etc.

#13

download Aqua-Sim from http://obinet.engr.uconn.edu/wiki/index.php/Aqua-Sim

knudfl · 02-12-2013, 02:59 PM

# 14 : I guess you mean the same "source code package" as mentioned in #12.
( It's the same URL.)

The package aquasim-ns-2.30-1.el6.i686.rpm is a binary package, 3.5 MB,
.. like any other application you can install with 'yum'.

rpm -ql aquasim-ns
/usr/local/bin/ns-aqua
/usr/local/lib/Aquasim/bin/tclsh8.4
.
/usr/local/lib/Aquasim/lib/libtcl8*
.
