See this command:

Description: Discrete event simulator targeted at networking research
Provides substantial support for simulation of TCP, routing,
and multicast protocols over wired and wireless (local and satellite)
networks.
Ns-2 is written in C++ and an Object oriented version of Tcl called OTcl.
.
Ns began as a variant of the REAL network simulator in 1989 and has
evolved substantially over the past few years. In 1995 ns development
was supported by DARPA through the VINT project at LBL, Xerox PARC,
UCB, and USC/ISI. Currently ns development is support through DARPA
with SAMAN and through NSF with CONSER, both in collaboration with
other researchers including ACIRI. Ns has always included substantal
contributions from other researchers, including wireless code from the
UCB Daedelus and CMU Monarch projects and Sun Microsystems.

Research survey suggest me to install ns-2.30 package only.We can't use ns-2.35 or and ns version?

And how can i know ns-2.30 is installed or not?

Please give me answer with explanations.Thanks in advance

Welcome to LQ.

You can have as many ns-allinone-2* as you want, installed at the same time.
But : Do never add any *PATH text to .bashrc. Not required.

AquaSim:

Code:

cd [aquasim]/ns-2.30/ 
cp ns ns-aquasim 
sudo cp ns-aquasim /usr/local/bin/

cd underwatersensor/uw_tcl/
ns-aquasim hop_by_hop_VBF_example.tcl

The Ubuntu package ns2 : /usr/bin/ns
... and you can have only one 'ns', other extra protocols must be named: ns-[any-name]
The ns-2.30, 'make install' : /usr/local/bin/ns (if the ns230 build was OK.)

Other ns2, example ...
/home/[name]/ns2/a/ns-allinone-2.35/
/home/[name]/ns2/b/ns-allinone-2.35/
/home/[name]/ns2/c/ns-allinone-2.35/
/home/[name]/ns2/d/ns-allinone-2.35/
etc. etc. ... no limit.

The usable Ubuntu nam package only exists for Ubuntu 17.04.

Other Ubuntu versions :
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-4175524760/#2
cd Downloads/
sudo gdebi [nam-package].deb

AquaSim is OK when the hop_by_hop_VBF_example.tcl creates some files:
hop_hop_vbf.nam ~190kB, hop_hop_vbf.tr ~199kB
... A few other examples may also work with Ubuntu.

Any questions? Then please specify Ubuntu version, architecture.
This command will reply with i686 or x86_64 : uname -a
