NST32031-Practical For Wireless Network: Department of ICT Faculty of Technology South Eastern University of Sri Lanka

The document describes how to set up and run a simulation of a peer-to-peer network connection using the ns-3 network simulator. It includes code to create two nodes, connect them with a point-to-point link, install networking stacks, assign IP addresses, set up an echo server and client, and run the simulation. It also provides instructions for running the simulation and viewing it with the NetAnim network animator tool.
