NS2.33 + Ubuntu + Sun xVM VirtualBox的安装

1.安装 Sun xVM VirtualBox。

2.建立New Virtual Machine，用“ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso”安装Ubuntu8.04；（Ubuntu8.04可到http://www.ubuntu.org.cn/products/GetUbuntu下载）。

3.建立VM tools。

4.升级Ubuntu8.04。

以上因人而异

5.下载ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz。（下载地址http://downloads.sourceforge.net/nsnam/ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz?modtime=1206990403&big_mirror=0）。

6.复制“ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz”到 /home/”your username”。我的username为neo

7.安装NS2

8.进入终端：输入sudo -i切换到root账号。

apt-get install build-essential

(for gcc and some essential)

apt-get install tcl8.4 tcl8.4-dev tk8.4 tk8.4-dev

(for tcl and tk)

apt-get install libxmu-dev

(for nam)

9.cd /home/”your username”

tar xvfz ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz

(解压 ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz)                可以直接右击压缩文件 Extract Here 进行解压

10.cd ns-allinone-2.33                           解压后的路径名称（我的是caoxu）

./install

(安装 ns-allinone-2.33)

11.Wait a while。你将会看到如下信息！

Ns-allinone package has been installed successfully.
Here are the installation places:
tcl8.4.18: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/{binincludelib}
tk8.4.18: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/{binincludelib}
otcl: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/otcl-1.13
tclcl: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/tclcl-1.19
ns: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/ns-2.33/ns
nam: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/nam-1.13/nam
xgraph: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/xgraph-12.1
gt-itm: /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/itm edriver sgb2alt sgb2ns sgb2comns sgb2hierns

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please put /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/bin:/home/tnt/ns-allinone2.33/tcl8.4.18/unix:/home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/tk8.4.18/unix
into your PATH environment; so that you'll be able to run itm/tclsh/wish/xgraph.

IMPORTANT NOTICES:

(1) You MUST put /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/otcl-1.13 /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/lib
into your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
If it complains about X libraries add path to your X libraries
into LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
If you are using csh you can set it like:
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
If you are using sh you can set it like:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=

(2) You MUST put /home/tnt/ns-allinone-2.33/tcl8.4.18/library into your TCL_LIBRARY environmental variable. Otherwise ns/nam will complain during startup.

After these steps you can now run the ns validation suite with
cd ns-2.33; ./validate

For trouble shooting please first read ns problems page
http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html. Also search the ns mailing list archive
for related posts.

12.cd ..

仔细看这个命令，表示返回到上一层目录，也就是你的 /home/”your username” ，不要敲错，目录是不能错滴！

gedit .bashrc

在文件最后编辑如下信息

export PATH=$PATH:/home/”your username”/ns-allinone-2.33/bin:/home/”your username”/ns-allinone-2.33/tcl8.4.18/unix:/home/”your username”/ns-allinone-2.33/tk8.4.18/unix

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/”your username”/ns-allinone-2.33/otcl-1.13:/home/”your username”/ns-allinone-2.33/lib

export TCL_LIBRARY=$TCL_LIBRARY:/home/”your username”/ns-allinone-2.33/tcl8.4.18/library

 

中间用冒号隔开

 

路径的设置相当重要，安装的时候错了好几次（比如permission denied 或者 找不到路径，打不开nam……），现把源文件贴出来（我自己机子上的):

  # ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells. # see /usr/share/doc/bash/examples/startup-files (in the package bash-doc) # for examples # If not running interactively, don't do anything [ -z "$PS1" ] && return # don't put duplicate lines in the history.

修改完后进行重载  source .bashrc

以下全部无关紧要，有空玩玩也可以

13.现在你可以log-out Ubuntu以便重载环境变量。

14.验证NS2。进入终端输入cd /ns-allinone-2.33/ns-2.33，./validate（这可能会花一段时间）。

验证结束你将会看到如下信息：

These messages are NOT errors and can be ignored:
warning: using backward compatibility mode
This test is not implemented in backward compatibility mode

validate overall report: all tests passed

15. sudo apt-get install gawk

(for gawk)

16. sudo apt-get install gnuplot

(for gnuplot)

17.结束，OK。
