// This ns-3 example demonstrates the use of helper functions to ease 
// the construction of simulation scenarios.
// 
// The simulation topology consists of a mixed wired and wireless
// scenario in which a hierarchical mobility model is used.
//
// The simulation layout consists of N backbone routers interconnected
// by an ad hoc wifi network.
// Each backbone router also has a local 802.11 network and is connected
// to a local LAN.  An additional set of (K-1) nodes are connected to
// this backbone.  Finally, a local LAN is connected to each router
// on the backbone, with L-1 additional hosts.
//
// The nodes are populated with TCP/IP stacks, and OLSR unicast routing
// on the backbone.  An example UDP transfer is shown.  The simulator
// be configured to output tcpdumps or traces from different nodes.
//
