#Create four nodes

#Setup a TCP connection

#Setup a CBR over UDP connection

#Detach tcp and sink agents (not really necessary)
$ns at 4.5 "$ns detach-agent $n0 $tcp ; $ns detach-agent $n3 $sink"

#Call the finish procedure after 5 seconds of simulation time
$ns at 5.0 "finish"

#Print CBR packet size and interval
puts "CBR packet size = [$cbr set packet_size_]"
puts "CBR interval = [$cbr set interval_]"

#Run the simulation
$ns run

TO EXECUTE THE CODE:

1.save the file with extension .tcl   (like  first.tcl)

2.type ns <filename>.tcl in terminal  (ns first.tcl  if you have saved the file with name first.tcl)
