The paper describes the proposal of a general framework used to emulate network routing protocols for ad hoc or sensor networks. The emulation is performed using a cluster of hosts with Linux operating system. The platform is developed in the user space, without need of kernel modifications. The emulator can be used to emulate many different routing protocols, in quite different wireless environments, such as the mobile scenario of the ad hoc networks or the static behavior of the sensor networks. We have tested this approach by porting an existing routing protocol to our platform.

Abstract
The paper describes the proposal of a general framework used to emulate network routing protocols for ad hoc or sensor networks. The emulation is performed using a cluster of hosts with Linux operating system. The platform is developed in the user space, without need of kernel modifications. The emulator can be used to emulate many different routing protocols, in quite different wireless environments, such as the mobile scenario of the ad hoc networks or the static behavior of the sensor networks. We have tested this approach by porting an existing routing protocol to our platform.File in questo prodotto:
