[ASK] About MANET (adhoc routing protocol)

kucrut69 · 05-27-2013, 08:28 AM

I am new member and newbie in networking on linux. I confused about how to install and implement protocol adhoc on linux OS. I have some questions about it. So sorry if my questions are repost from another thread.

NOTE: I won't using NS or another simulator software. I will implement adhoc protocol in real life.

1. What is the best linux OS to implement adhoc protocol?
2. How to configure adhoc protocol (DSDV or else) on linux OS above?

Thx for your attention.

Following link could help you configure wireless ad-hoc network.

It just how to turn on wifi and creating a wireless adhoc. I need to implement one or more adhoc protocols like DSDV and AODV.

You can modify existing AODV code to meet your requirement.

How to modify it?
Is it using some code or what? I am a very newbie for that.

How to modify it dependent on the requirement but in general, you can download existing AODV free-ware source code and install it. After playing for a while, you should find out what doesn't match the requirement.

Oh okay. Thanks for your help.

Is it only AODV that available for free download? How about DSDV?
I'm sorry for many questions I ask.

The DSDV is a little touch, maybe no C but there is TCL. You can try that, I never try it.

I don't using simulator like NS2 or another. I would like to implement them to my OS. I got dead-end for this.

"MANET adhoc routing protocol" → → `Mobile Ad hoc Networking`.

There's a reason why simulators are used : You don't have to set up e.g. :
one or more transmitters (Radio stations), a number of routers / computers etc.
to test / use e.g. a "Mobile Ad hoc Network".

If you want to implement DSDV, have to know the protocol. The package is very good reference for learning.

Yes it is. But there so many paper that simulating MANET on NS2. So I have an idea to implement it in real life.
Do you think I can do it?
Thanks for your answers.

Yes I do. I know the ways of working of DSDV but I don't know how to implement it on linux or another OS.

nini09 · 06-06-2013, 02:36 PM

For interface with Linux or OS, it should be same as AODV. You can refer AODV code.
