I am research student and I have to simulate a network with different routing protocols (e.g. AODV, DSR etc) communicating with each other via a router/gateway. I have simulated a network with same protocol e.g. AODV, DSR and now have to customize a node (router) which will receive messages from different protocols and forward them to destination nodes running different protocols. e.g. source node A (using AODV), destination node B (using DSR) and router node can receive data from node A and send to node B. The simulator I am using is OPNET.
Does OPNET supports this type of behaviour with a node (router) running multiple protocols. If you have experienced/simulated this type of behaviour, can you help me in this regard.
Please send the project/document at hamidhsn at hotmail.com
Many Thanks
