NO Ad-Hoc Routing Agent (NOAH)

NO Ad-Hoc Routing Agent (NOAH)NOAH is a wireless routing agent that (in contrast to DSDV, DSR, ...) only supports direct communication between wireless nodes or between base stations and mobile nodes in case Mobile IP is used. This allows to simulate scenarios where multi-hop wireless routing is undesired. NOAH does not send any routing related packets.

It has been updated to work with ns-2.26 - ns-2.30 and with non-Mobile IP scenarios. (For older versions of ns-2, take a look at but this version does not contain the bugfixes for non-Mobile IP scenarios.)

Further update to allow static multi-hop routes. The routes can be set up using the routing command which takes as parameters the number of destinations and then as many tuples of destination and next hop address. The following example sets up static routing for a line of nodes:

# setup static routing for line of nodes
for {set i 0} {$i < $val(nn) } {incr i} { set cmd "[$node_($i) set ragent_] routing $val(nn)" for {set to 0} {$to < $val(nn) } {incr to} { if {$to < $i} { set hop [expr $i - 1] } elseif {$to > $i} {
set hop [expr $i + 1]
} else {
set hop $i
}
set cmd "$cmd $to $hop"
}
eval $cmd
}
