How to connect a NS3 node to my local blockchain

Question

I have a local blockchain on my system where all the nodes are containers and these containers are created on the same system. Now, I want to connect every node with each other in NS3 simulation. How to do this?

Answer 1

To connect all your nodes with all your other nodes you have to first setup virtual networks using Linux Containers.

You can learn how to do that here: https://www.nsnam.org/wiki/HOWTO_Use_Linux_Containers_to_set_up_virtual_networks

You can also refer and use the source code provided here to implement it:
