Generating data traffic and mobility scenarios

SetdetA script has been provided which generates
these movements automatically in a separate file
To generate this, use the setdest script present in ns/indep-utils/cmu-scen-gen/ directory.
Examples:setdest -v 1 -n 20 -p 2.0 -M 10.0 -t 200 -x 500 -y 500 > scen-
20_v1.tcl setdest -v 2 -n 20 -s 1 -m 1 -M 10.0 -t 200 -P 1 -p 2.0 -x 500 -y 500
> scen-20_v2.tcl
Cbrgen.tclGenerates traffic automatically in a
separate filescript present in ns/indep-utils/cmu-
scen-gen/ directoryns cbrgen.tcl [-type cbr|tcp] [-nn nodes] [-
seed seed] [-mc connections][-rate rate] >output.tcl
Example: ns cbrgen.tcl –type cbr –nn 50 –seed 1 –mc
10 –rate 4 > cbr-50-10-4
A Typical DSR trace format (1/3)
s 606.210364161 _39_ RTR --- 1306 DSR 44 [13a a 27 800] ------- [39:255 8:255 255 8] 2 [0 0] [0 0 0 0->0] [1 1 8 39->10]
s: means send606.210364161: time stamp_39_: node idRTR: means router message1306: uid of this packetDSR: DSR agent44: size in the common header hdr_cmn()
[13a a 27 800] MAC detail: 13a: means the expected transmission time ( note that packet size is large, 44 bytes, 314second?) a: means the receiving node: 10 27: means the sending node is 39 800: IP header: 0x0800, (ETHERTYPE_ARP is 0x0806)
DSR Trace Format (2/3)
[39:255 8:255 255 8] IP detail: src address: IP 39 means 0.0.0.39
port 255 dst address: IP 8 means 0.0.0.8 port 255 TTL: 255 Next-hop: 8
TTL (time to live ) you can use it to know the number of hops
DSR Trace Format (3/3)2 [0 0] [0 0 0 0->0] [1 1 8 39->10] DSR
detail:2: num_addrs()[0 0] route-request option, this is not a route
request, the second 0 is labeled for sequence number
[0 0 0 0->0] route-reply option: [ " route-reply?" "Rreq seqno" "reply length" "dst of src route", "src of the src route"]
[1 1 8 39->10], 1: shows this is a route error 1: number of route errors 8: tp notify node 8. 39->10: link 39-10 is broken
Calculating Routing Overhead & PDRRouting overhead =
sum of routing packets / sum of data packetsPDR = Packet Delivery Ratio PDR =
sum of packets sent/ sum of successfully received packets
How to extract the number of Routing packets
$cat out.tr |grep "^s.*MAC.*DSR" | wc –lData packets
$cat out.tr |grep "^s.*MAC.*cbr" | wc –l
Routing Overhead (AWK code)BEGIN {dsrpktno = 0; dsrbyte = 0;
cbrpktno = 0; cbrbyte = 0; }{ $1~/s/ && /DSR/ && /MAC/ { dsrpktno ++
; dsrbyte+=$8 ;}$1~/s/ && /cbr/ && /MAC/ { cbrpktno ++ ; cbrbyte+=$8; }
} END { print ( dsrpktno/cbrpktno, dsrbyte /cbrbyte) }
PDR (AWK code)BEGIN {Scbr=0; Rcbr=0; }{ $1~/s/ && /cbr/ && /AGT/ { Scbr ++ ;}
$1~/r/ && /cbr/ && /AGT/ { Rcbr++ ;}}
END { print ( “PDR=“,Scbr/Rcbr) }
