The ns-3 topology generator project aims to provide a quick and easy way to create ns-3 topology. It provides intuitive GUI so you can add nodes, link, applications, ... and generates C++ simulation code for ns-3.

This tool has been written by Pierre Weiss and Sebastien Vincent, University of Strasbourg.

Prerequisites

You need Qt 4 libraries to compile and use ns-3 topology generator.

Installation

To build the project:

$ qmake
$ make

Usage

To use it, simply run:

$ ./ns-3-generator

To generate the API documentation (you need doxygen tool): $ doxygen Doxyfile

The HTML generated documentation is located in doc/html/ directory of sources.

Configurations may be saved to an XML file and later loaded.
