    Ubuntu/Debian/Mint, for other operative systems view ns-nam installation. You can download other the
    version only changing he version numbers on the links.(For this example the version is 3.XX)
    Step 1: Download ns-allineone3.XX

    1 tar xjf ns-allinone-3.XX.tar.bz2

    Step 4: Open the console and install the next libraries:


    1 sudo apt-get install gcc g++ python python-dev python3 python3-dev
    2 python3-setuptoolsv mercurial bzr gdb valgrind gsl-bin libgsl0-dev
    3 libgsl0ldbl git flex bison tcpdump sqlite sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev libxml2
    4 libxml2-dev libgtk2.0-0 libgtk2.0-dev uncrustify doxygen graphviz imagemagick
    5 texlive texlivelatex-extra texlive-generic-extra texlive-generic-recommended
    6 texinfo dia texlive texlive-latex-extra texlive-extra-utils qt5-default
    7 openmpi-bin openmpi-common openmpi-doc libopenmpi-dev texi2html
    8 texlive-generic-recommended python-pygraphviz python-kiwi gdb valgrind
    9 python-pygoocanvas libgoocanvas-dev pythonpygccxml uncrustify
    10 doxygen graphviz imagemagick python3-sphinx dia gsl-bin libgsl-dev
    11 libgsl23 libgslcblas0

    Support for ns-3-pyviz visualizer. For ns-3.28 and earlier releases, PyViz is based on GTK+ 2,
    GooCanvas, and GraphViz:

    92 NS-3 INSTALLATION

    1 apt-get install python-pygraphviz python-kiwi python-pygoocanvas libgoocanvas-dev ipython

    For Ubuntu 18.04, python-pygoocanvas is no longer provided. The ns-3.29 release and later upgrades
    the support to GTK+ version 3, and requires these packages:
    1 apt-get install gir1.2-goocanvas-2.0 python-gi python-gi-cairo python-pygraphviz
    2 python3-gi python3-gi-cairo python3-pygraphviz gir1.2-gtk-3.0 ipython ipython3

    Step 5: Open the directory ns-allinone-3.XX


    1 $ cd ns-allinone-3.XX

    Step 6: Use the command ls to view the ns-3 archives


    1 $ls

    Step 7: Enter the next command in the terminal on the directory ns − allinone − 3.XX
    1 $./build.py --enable-examples --enable-tests

    If debugging is correct, you see the next message in your console:


    1 "Build finished successfully"

    Step 8 : Now debugging with the command .waf (go to ns 3.XX directory) and type:
    1 $ ./waf -d debug --enable-examples --enable-tests configure

    Step 9: Run the command .waf again


    1 ./waf

    Step 10: Make the test on all packets, with the following command
    1 ./test.py

    Additional Features:

    A GTK-based graphic modules configuration system


    1 apt-get install libgtk2.0-0 libgtk2.0-dev

    To experiment with virtual machines and ns-3


    1 apt-get install vtun lxc

    Support for openflow module (requires some boost libraries)


    1 apt-get install libboost-signals-dev libboost-filesystem-dev
