Kannan,
Thanks for your reply.
I need to implement a protocol somewhat like DV.
To implement the protocol,
1). I have to setup my own routing packets.
2). The nodes should send the packets to their neighbors periodically.
I tried to understand how DV works. However, the two files rtProtoDV(.h,
.cc) are small. I don't know where DV is really implememted. Neither do I
know whether this is a good way.

The documentation itself is a good technical report. However, it is
difficult to undertand for new users, especially lack of examples. I just
read Marc Greis's tutorial. It is much easy to understand. I hope there
are such kind of tutorials for each part of NS.
