16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	16	ns-3 is an evolving system and there will be API or behavioral changes
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	17	from time to time. Users who try to use scripts or models across
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	18	versions of ns-3 may encounter problems at compile time, run time, or
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	19	may see the simulation output change. </p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	20	<p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	21	We have adopted the development policy that we are going to try to ease
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	22	the impact of these changes on users by documenting these changes in a
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	23	single place (this file), and not by providing a temporary or permanent
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	24	backward-compatibility software layer. </p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	25	<p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	26	The goal is that users who encounter a problem when trying to use older
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	27	code with newer code should be able to consult this file to find
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	28	guidance as to how to fix the problem. For instance, if a method name
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	29	or signature has changed, it should be stated what the new replacement
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	30	name is. </p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	31	<p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	32	Note that users who upgrade the simulator across versions, or who work
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	33	directly out of the development tree, may find that simulation output
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	34	changes even when the compilation doesn't break, such as when a
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	35	simulator default value is changed. Therefore, it is good practice for
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	36	_anyone_ using code across multiple ns-3 releases to consult this file,
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	37	as well as the RELEASE_NOTES, to understand what has changed over time.

16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	40	This file is a best-effort approach to solving this issue; we will do
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	41	our best but can guarantee that there will be things that fall through
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	42	the cracks, unfortunately. If you, as a user, can suggest improvements

7717 cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	54	<li> IPv6 support for TCP and UDP has been implemented. Socket functions
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	55	that take an address [e.g. Send (), Connect (), Bind ()] can accept an
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	56	ns3::Ipv6Address or a ns3::Address in addition to taking an ns3::Ipv4Address.
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	57	(Note that the ns3::Address must contain a ns3::Ipv6Address or a ns3::Ipv4Address,
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	58	otherwise these functions will return an error).
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	59	Internally, the socket now stores the remote address as a type "ns3::Address"
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	60	instead of a type "ns3::Ipv4Address". The IPv6 Routing Header extension is not
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	61	currently supported in ns3 and will not be reflected in the TCP and UDP checksum
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	62	calculations per RFC 2460. Also note that UDP checksums for IPv6 packets are
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	63	required per RFC, but remain optional and disabled by default in ns3 (in the
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	64	interest of performance).

cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	67	When calling Bind () on a socket without an address, the behavior remains the
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	68	same: it will bind to the IPv4 "any" address (0.0.0.0). In order to Bind () to
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	69	the IPv6 "any" address in a similar fashion, use "Bind6 ()".

cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	72	The prototype for the RxCallback function in the Ipv6EndPoint was changed.
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	73	It now includes the destination IPv6 address of the end point which was
cfa1741013dd Add support for IPv6 transport protocols Ken Renard <kdrenard2@gmail.com> parents: 7698 diff changeset	74	needed for TCP. This lead to a small change in the UDP and ICMPv6 L4

7581 6ac3fa410583 spectrum API change Nicola Baldo <nicola@baldo.biz> parents: 7553 diff changeset	165	<li> In the spectrum module, the parameters to SpectrumChannel::StartTx () and SpectrumPhy::StartRx () methods are now passed using the new struct SpectrumSignalParameters. This new struct supports inheritance, hence it allows technology-specific PHY implementations to provide technology-specific parameters in SpectrumChannel::StartTx() and SpectrumPhy::StartRx(), while at the same time keeping a set of technology-independent parameters common across all spectrum-enabled PHY implementations (i.e., the duration and the power spectral density which are needed for interference calculation). Additionally, the SpectrumType class has been removed, since now the type of a spectrum signal can be inferred by doing a dynamic cast on SpectrumSignalParameters. See the <A href="http://mailman.isi.edu/pipermail/ns-developers/2011-October/009495.html" >Spectrum API change discussion on ns-developers</A> for the motivation behind this API change.

3ebeb7bf3c15 added support for radiotap and prism headers Nicola Baldo <nbaldo@cttc.es> parents: 4475 diff changeset	1132	To accommodate support for the radiotap and prism headers in PCAP traces, the interface for promiscuos mode sniff in the wifi device was changed. The new implementation was heavily inspired by the way the madwifi driver handles monitor mode. A distinction between TX and RX events is introduced, to account for the fact that different information is to be put in the radiotap/prism header (e.g., RSSI and noise make sense only for RX packets). The following are the relevant modifications to the WifiPhy class:
