To import NET-DEVICE.H packages in NS3 read out the ideas that are listed in this page, if you want more guidance then contact us. The NetDevice class is the main interface for network devices. It includes methods to send and receive packets, set device settings, and manage device states. This class serves as a base for different network devices like Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and LTE, allowing a consistent way to work with various network interfaces. It also provides features for packet handling, addressing, and device communication in the NS-3 network stack. Developers focusing on network device creation and simulations in NS-3 need to understand net-device.h.
Our developers focus on creating and simulating network devices in NS-3, providing top-notch guidance for installing Net-device.h.
Read out the installation of Net-device.h.
PRE-REQUISITES:
- Fresh installation of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS:

2.NS-3.35 Installation:
Screenshot:

HEADER FILE VERIFICATION:
- Locate to the ns3.35/src/fd-net-device/examples/ folder:

2.Copy the dummy-network.cc file to scratch folder:
Next, we need to copy the dummy-network.cc file from ns3.35/src/fd-net-device/examples/ folder to the ns3/scratch folder.
Screenshot:

Next, we need to paste the dummy-network.cc file to the ns3/scratch folder.

3.Open the Terminal:
Next, we need to launch the terminal by right clicking the mouse in the ns3 location.

4.NS-3.35 Configuration && Building Process:
Next, we need to configure and build the ns3 folder to make the copied files to the scratch need to store in configuration.
Command: “./waf configure && ./waf build”

5.Importing Net-device.h:
Here we imported the Net-device.h header file in this example program.
Screenshot:

Here we highlighted the code line that NetDevice pointer which is the part of the Net-device.h that we will show class file that used in this code via network folder which represents Network module.
Screenshot:

Screenshot:

Here we will show the header file by opening Net-device.h file to show the class imported from the Net-device.h in the example code.

6.Executing the Example Net-device Program:
Then we need to run the Example Net-device program to view output of the program.
Command: “./waf –run dummy-network”
Screenshot:

Here we shown the output of the example Net-device program by using Net-device.h.
