Re: [ns] Node out of range (ns-2.1b6)

[Gerald Jeampierre <jeampier@eikon.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de>]

Actually I had understood that the expanded space is theoritically on by
default with ns 2.1b6. Since I got the message error "node out of range..." I
mentionned, I tried to use "$ns set-address-format expanded" and  "Node
expandaddr" and also got the 'deprecated' messages. In a nutshell, my problem
is I cannot put more than 128 nodes in my topology using ns 2.1b6 even if it
should be possible.

If someone had the same problem or has an idea, where it could come from...,
please tell me!!

Thank you
