This package contains the latest version of ns-3 which aims
at being a replacement for ns-2. Currently, ns-3 provides a

+number of simple network simulation models:

- arp support at the bottom of the stack

- OnOff traffic generator
Our focus to date has been on getting an overall software
framework in place. The framework is there to make adding
new models as simple as possible:
- - an extensive tracing system can be used to connect
- any number of arbitrary trace sources to any number
- of trace sinks. This tracing system is decoupled
- from the act of serializing the trace events to a
- file: users can and should provide their own
- trace handling routines.
+
+ - an extensive callback-based tracing system
- simple file trace serialization support is included
to both text and pcap files.
+ - an attribute system for configuring parameters in the
+ models
+
- adding new MAC-level models simply requires subclassing
the pair of classes NetDevice and Channel.
