1.at first stay
into your home directory(/home/ashrafi/-- here ashrafi is my home folder)
Step1: Download
ns-allinone-2.34 package from this <site>. I will be using ns version
2.34.
Step2: Place the
ns-allinone-2.34.tar.gz file in your home folder(/home/ashrafi in my case).
Right click on the package and extract the contents in the same home folder.
[N.B (step 4-8
you need to connect internet to update and install these)]
Step3: Next, open
the Terminal(Applications–>Accessories–>Terminal in ubuntu)

after completing
install
Step7: sudo
apt-get install g++ make autoconf automake libtool libxmu-dev
Step8: sudo
apt-get install g++-4.3
Edit Makefile.in
found at this location ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13/Makefile.in as follows:
in terminal write
command
Step9: clear
Step10: cd
ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13
if step10 doesn't
work only then write(10.1)
Step10.1: cd
otcl-1.13/
Step11: ls
Step12: gedit
Makefile.in
Now
Edit Makefile.in
found at this location ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13/Makefile.in as follows:
Find the line
that says:
CC= @CC@
and change it to:
CC= gcc-4.3
and press save button
after change it
back to terminal
Step13: sudo su
Step14: cd ..
Step15: ./install
after
successfully install ns-allinone-2.34 pakage without any error back to terminal
Step16: clear
Step17: su
ashrafi
Step18:
gedit ~/.bashrc
Step19:
Append the following lines to the file
~/.bashrc
just go to end of
the file and press enter and copy following instuction and paste it in there,then
press save button
# LD_LIBRARY_PATH
OTCL_LIB=/home/ashrafi/ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13

# Note: the above
two lines starting from XGRAPH should come in the same line

NAM=/home/ashrafi/ns-allinone-2.34/nam-1.14/
PATH=$PATH:$XGRAPH:$NS:$NAM
Step20: now back
to terminal and write down
source ~/.bashrc
Step21: ns
Step22: %exit
Step23: nam
[note that:
download
wireless-tcp and save as wireless-tcp.tcl
i've given below
the code u've to copy it and paste in a notepad then save as wireless-tcp.tcl

in home folder/ashrafi/ns-allinone-2.34 just
press Ctrl+L u'll see the directory like
