Routing Protocol for Lossy Networks (RPL)

RPL protocol for Internet of Things is called as Routing Protocol for Low Power Lossy Networks. The following video depicts the use of RPL in Contiki OS with COOJA Framework. The simulation was carried out using sky motes.  These are the modules that are used as firmware. ~contiki-2.7/examples/ipv6/rpl-border-router/border-router.c (This firmware is used for one of the sky mote) ~contiki-2.7/examples/skywebsense/skywebsense.c (this is programmed with other 5 nodes) Please refer the video for more details.

Network Simulator 2 - presentation Slides

I have gone across more than 80 institutions in the country to give hands on session, workshop, seminars related to network simulator 2. Mostly I will try different simulations, different models for simulation, etc. But basically, every researcher/students needs some basics to get to know about ns2. These slides make you understand the basics of ns2. Still in the country, there are so many universities uses ns2 as their simulated platform for the networking course, wireless networks course, etc. reading these slides make you know the basics of ns2. These slides can be downloaded from my slideshare profile. Introduction to Network Simulator 2 Introduction to ns2 from Pradeep Kumar TS, PhD Installation of Network Simulator 2 Installation of ns2 from Pradeep Kumar TS, PhD Wired and Wireless Network Examples in ns2 Wired and Wireless Examples in ns2 from Pradeep Kumar TS, PhD OTCL and C++ Linkages in ns2 OTcl and C++ linkages in NS2 from P...

Error: Meta size 4064 too large (max = 1000)

Error: Meta size 4064 too large (max = 1000) When using Mannasim Simulator for ns2, you may encounter this error when you are trying to run a tcl file with LEACH protocol. Here is a small workaround for the solution. To install mannasim, please go here . To overcome the above error, open the file ~ns-2.35/common/packet.h and change the following line struct hdr_rca {        int msg_type_;        char meta_[1000]; to struct hdr_rca {        int msg_type_;        char meta_[5000]; Since I get 4064 as meta size, i changed it to 5000, if you get more than 4064, then accordingly you can increase the meta size and compile it.  Here is the important step to compile   ~ns-2.35 $] ./configure --with-tcl-ver=8.5 ~ns-2.35 $] make Sometimes simply typing make will compile, but the .object files would not be created. So use the above two steps. Here is the screenshot. Mannas...

Installing Kali Linux Tools in Ubuntu or Linux Mint

Kali linux is a debian based and its not easy to configure it on a typical PC. If the machine is UEFI based, then Kali is tough to customize. So what is the alternative....? Here is the answer: Katoolin Its the name of the package system for installing the entire kali linux tools (Penetration Testing) in Ubuntu or Debian based system. Here I am trying to install inside my Linux Mint OS Used: Linux Mint 18.2 Sonya Prequisites: Python 2.7 Always perform these steps after the installation of ubuntu or Linux Mint $] sudo apt update $] sudo apt install build-essential autoconf automake libxmu-dev $] sudo apt install git $] git clone https://github.com/LionSec/katoolin.git $] sudo cp katoolin/katoolin.py /usr/bin/katoolin $] sudo katoolin This will give various options as shown below Fig 1 Katoolin Fig 2 Katoolin Select the option '1' to add Kali repositories and update After it is done, Select "2" -> update If you want to go to the prev...
