Re: [ns] Understanding Trace File
Hi Kumarendra
If you take a look at the wireless node schematic in ns-manual (chapter
15) you have the objects called Src/Sink, RTagent and MAC. The trace
file shows you the packets arrival and departure time from these
entities, respectively referred as AGT, RTR and MAC in trace file.
For your second question, I do not really know about the new trace file,
but in the older one the -1 value as a destination node stood for a
broadcast packet.
Hope it helps
