In this DIY we will learn how to install Network Simulator (NS)‐2.35 in Ubuntu 13.10 OR Ubuntu
14.04. If you found yourself here then I assume you already know about the NS, so I will skip
the introduction part. And if you don't then you may want to follow this link.

vailable_her… Step 1: Setting up the Prerequisites
Shoot down your troubles.
1. First of all, download Network Simulator (NS‐2.35) from here.I assume you have downloaded
Follow
it into your '/home/user_name/Documents' directory.
2 [Optional]. Now we have to update the Ubuntu with its latest components. Open up a
terminal and run these commands:
1 sudo aptget update
2 sudo aptget distupgrade
3 sudo aptget update
Make sure that your Ubuntu is fully updated ( i.e. there should be no pending updates in your
Ubuntu Software Center and in Software Updater).
3. Before installing the NS we have to install some essential packages required by the NS. So
run the following commands:
1 sudo aptget install buildessential autoconf automake
2 sudo aptget install tcl8.5dev tk8.5dev
3 sudo aptget install perl xgraph libxtdev libx11dev libxmudev
4 sudo aptget install gcc4.4

Image 1. Replace erase.
Image 2. With this>erase.
NOTE: If you don't make the above stated change then you will see an error while installing
the NS (image 3).
Image 3. Error (Please Follow the Previous Step).
3. Now its time to finally install the NS. Open up a terminal and move to the directory where
you have extracted the package, in our case its '/home/user_name/Documents' and install NS
using the following commands (image 4):
1 cd /home/user_name/Documents/nsallinone2.35
2 sudo ./install
It will take around 15 minutes so have patience.
Image 4. Installation in Progress.
Step 3: Set the Environment Variables
1. Assuming everything went well in the previous step and you have successfully installed your
NS. Now that NS is installed, there are some environment variables that need to be added to
your profile. This can be done by editing the .bashrc file. Open a new terminal and open the
file using:
1 sudo gedit .bashrc
NOTE: You may want to create a backup of the .bashrc before editing, the easiest way is to
copy the file to a different location. Later you can replace the edited .bashrc with the copied
one in case something goes sideways or if you want to remove the NS.
2. Add the following lines AT THE END of the file. Be sure to change "/path_to" to the path of
where you have extracted the NS (e.g. '/home/user_name/Documents').
# LD_LIBRARY_PATH
OTCL_LIB=/path_to/nsallinone2.35/otcl1.14/
NS2_LIB=/path_to/nsallinone2.35/lib/
USR_Local_LIB=/usr/local/lib/
export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$OTCL_LIB:$NS2_LIB:$USR_Local_LIB
# TCL_LIBRARY
TCL_LIB=/path_to/nsallinone2.35/tcl8.5.10/library/
USR_LIB=/usr/lib/
export TCL_LIBRARY=$TCL_LIBRARY:$TCL_LIB:$USR_LIB
# PATH
XGRAPH=/path_to/nsallinone2.35/xgraph12.2/:/path_to/nsallinone
2.35/bin/:/path_to/nsallinone2.35/tcl8.5.10/unix/:/path_to/nsallinone
2.35/tk8.5.10/unix/
NS=/path_to/nsallinone2.35/ns2.35/
NAM=/path_to/nsallinone2.35/nam1.15/
export PATH=$PATH:$XGRAPH:$NS:$NAM
Save the file and restart the system, alternatively you can just reload the .bashrc as:
1 source ~/.bashrc
Step 4: Validate the Installation
You need to validate NS to check if everything is OK but keep in mind that it will take a lot of
time (about 1:30 hrs). Open up a terminal and move to the directory
‘/home/user_name/Documents/ns‐allinone‐2.35/ns‐2.35/' and run:
1 ./validate
And That is it ! You can now run ns from a terminal window by executing: ns
If you received the "%" sign, it means that NS is running (image 5). Congratulations !!
Image 5. Installation Successful.
* Uninstalling the NS
If you want to remove the NS from your system then follow these steps:
1 Delete the directory 'nsallinone2.35'.
2 Delete the ns related files from '/user/local/bin'.
Edit the '.bashrc file' and remove the paths that you have added during the
3
installation.
4 Restart the system and run following commands one by one:
5 sudo aptget autoremove
6 sudo aptget clean
* Some Common Problems
1. Many people are getting the following error when they run the ns after the installation:
Image 6. Error: 'ns' is currently not installed.
If you get this error then kindly ensure that you have set the path (as in step 3) correctly and
try restarting the system. If the error persists then try running the ns from '/ns‐allinone‐
2.35/ns‐2.35/bin/'.
You can start working on NS now, the standard Marc Greis' tutorial on NS can be found here.
Another tutorial is 'NS by example' by Jae Chung and Marc Claypool, and is available here.
P.S.
I am not working on ns anymore, if you face any problems then feel free to contact, comment
but it's guaranteed that I would be able to help you. Also go through the comments before
making your query. Thank you!
Have Fun !!

Hii..
I followed the steps mentioned above to install NS2. But after validating, if i give "ns"
command in my terminal i get the below message,
"The program ns is currently not installed , you can install it by sudo aptget install ns2"
Can you please provide some suggestion on the same
Thanks...!!!

I would like add couple of screen shots o the same regarding my installation and validation
report.. But i am not sure of how i can add the screen shots here..

Hii...
The solution to the mentioned error is
""
thats the message you get when your ns installation is not complete. You can write the
following command and run it.
sudo aptget install ns2 nam xgraph
Provide the password. It will download some packaged online and install ns2.
You surely need internet connectivity for that. Otherwise, your problem cannot be resolved.

Thank you very much for posting the steps in this Blog.. I was able to install NS2 really
fast.. :)

Any time I try to run the nam executable I get a segmentation fault:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
when i searched for this issue, one website had mentioned
to copy nam1.15 directory from /home//Documents/nsallinone2.35 to /usr/local/bin
and restart the terminal.
i did it , but i m still getting the same error..
Do u have any suggestions on the same..
Thanks and regards,

Hii
You can try this
1. Update your nam version
$ sudo aptget install reinstall nam libotcl1 libtclcl1
if it still shows error please follow following steps:
a) Delete the nam1.15/ folder and any other / folder.
b) $ sudo aptget remove nam
download the following nam and install

to get rid of pearl error i tried to do the following and tried to reinstall nam1.1510 but it

However, I do not see any nam folder created in /home/deepthi/Documents/naallinone
2.35/ directory. but nam* file is created in /usr/local/bin
i tried to install the pacth manually by using command > sudo dpkg i nam_1.1510*.deb
but still did not work , it does not show any error but no folders of nam are created as
required ..
when i run the executable nam .i,e, $nam
it gives the below message,
bash: /usr/local/bin/nam : No such file or directory
but i see some folders and file in /usr/local/lib/nam1.15 of today's date and time
i am not sure if it is of old installation or the new nam pacth one.
i tried to creat a link from /usr/local/bin/nam to /usr/local/lib/nam1.15,
but it did not help since when i again run the executable nam .i,e, $nam
it give the below message,
bash: /usr/local/bin/nam : is a directory.
Any help would be appreciated..!!!
Also please let me know how to upload screen shots , it will help me to explain better..

i have done all the steps above but receiving the following error at the end
The program 'ns' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo aptget install ns2
Reply

Please do not try to install ns by 'sudo aptget install ns2'. First of all you have to
undo all the changes you have made so far. So delete the 'nsallinone2.35'
directory, remove the path you have set in the .bashrc file restart your system
and run the following commands one by one
1. sudo aptget upgrade
2. sudo aptget update
3. sudo aptget autoremove
4. sudo aptget clean
Again restart your system and install the ns from the beginning. You may want to
look at the next comment by "Deepthi" for more information.
Goodluck.
@ Shabeer
check if u have set ur enivnoment variables properly in .bashrc file and make
sure you have executed source ~/.bashrc after changing,
if u r still facing problem after doing the above step
try again by adding
export TCL_LIBRARY=$TCL_LIBRARY$TCLIB:$USRLIB
insted of
export TCL_LIBRARY=$TCLIB:$USRLIB
in ur .bashrc file and load it by "source ~/.bashrc" command.
if the problem still persist.
make sure ur ubuntu has all the softwares updated ( i.e, there should be no
pending software update in you Appstore), also execute sudo aptget update and
sudoapt get upgrade
do not install ns2 by typing sudo aptget insatll, for me this created
segementaton fault (core dump) error when executing nam
Reply
hii,
Thanks for the reply
i am finally able to run the nam executable ... !!!! :) :)
This is what i did,
I unistalled ns2 ,
since i was running ubuntu on a virtual machine. i deleted ubuntu and reinstalled it on my
VM ware
i updated ubuntu software from the app store it took some time.
i also executed sudo aptget upgrade,sudo aptget update, as u suggested..
then as suggested in link > http://askubuntu.com/questions/467901/segmentationfault

coredumpedinns2ubuntu1404
i downloaded ns22.35 again from the link >
http://garr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/nsnam/allinone/nsallinone2.35/nsallinone
2.35.tar.gz.
for installation of ns2 i followed the similar steps as u mentioned
this time i did not execute "sudo aptget install ns2 nam xgraph" from terminal since i was
able to run ns and nam command after updating .bashrc file.
As per the link mentioned above , i suppose segmentaion fault error was because i
installed it by terminal using command "sudo aptget install ns2 nam xgraph" .
and also updating ubuntu before ns2 installation also helped i suppose.
Thank You for ur suggestions.
Best Regards,
Deepthi

It seems that you have some problem with your installation. You may consider to
reinstall your ns from the beginning. For instruction on removal of ns and other
steps to follow pls have a look at previous comments.
Good luck.

FYI..
The uninstallation process is pretty simple. Please follow these steps:
1. Delete the directory 'nsallinone2.35'.
2. Delete the ns related files from /user/local/bin
3. Edit the .bashrc file and remove the paths that you have added during the installation.
4. restart the system and run following commands one by one
After these restart your system and proceed the installation as usual.

You should change to permission of the ns directory for your current user. You

Not able to get output ? As in nam file in empty or nam file is not running
automatically ? If its not running automatically then you have to include 'exec
nam namefile.nam' in your tcl script.

Hello...
It seems like there is some problem with the path that you have set, kindly
ensure that you have set the path correctly. Also are you getting a '%' when you
simply run the 'ns' ?

Pls double check your locations and paths that you are giving. In the case of
Miss Divya she has missed some path variables.

It happens sometimes. Pls uninstall the ns, follow the following steps and start
the installation from the beginning
1. Delete the directory 'nsallinone2.35'.
2. Delete the ns related files from /user/local/bin
3. Edit the .bashrc file and remove the paths that you have added during the
installation.
4. restart the system and run following commands one by one

i am unable to uninstall ns2
i del the drc
no files were in usr/local/bin
edit .bashrc
restart system and run autoremove and clean cmds
but still when i type ns it shows %
plz help.......................
Dhyan Singh Monday, November 17, 2014 9:33:00 PM
Seems like ns executables are still in your system. pls run this command on a
terminal
locate i "ns.*"
it will return the every location which contains a ns executable file. delete these
files and proceed further.

3. Before installing the NS we have to install some essential packages required by the NS.
So run the following commands:
1 sudo aptget install tcl8.5dev tk8.5dev

Hi
I installed ns2.35 in ubuntu 12.04 LTS. It works. I changed the type of DSR cache from
mobicache(the default cache) to linkcache. then recompile ns2. It gives me the following
error
dsr/linkcache .cc: fatal error: list.h: no such file or directory.
I used locate list.h and this is its directory
/usr/src/linuxheaders3.2.029/include/linux/list.h
I tried to pass this directory then use #include "list.h" but it doesn't work. it gives another
error
poisson.h no such file or directory
Please help me

this error "No rule to make target mannasim/accessPointApp.o,needed by 'ns'.Stop" So
what should I do? and thanks in advance

Hi,
I have extracted the tar of nsallinone2.35.
Downloaded the implementation of mptcp from
https://code.google.com/archive/p/multipathtcp/source/default/source.
Copied the mptcp and mptcpfull files in ns2.35/tcp and trace files in ns2.35/trace.
Made changes in Makefile accordingly.
I then build/install the ns2.35 using ./install command. Confiured and validated; everything
worked perfectly.
But now when I execute the mptcp script, I get this error
invalid command name "Agent/TCP/FullTcp/Sack/Multipath"
while executing
