HOW TO RUN NET WLAN SUPPORT.H PACKAGES IN OPNET

To import the Wlan_support.h_ packages in the OPNET tool, please provide us with your details. We are committed to offering you the best support along with a comprehensive explanation. Stay connected with us for excellent project ideas.   The Wlan_support Header is a crucial component in OPNET Modeler, specifically tailored to offer support functions and structures for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) simulations. This header encompasses definitions and routines that aid in the modeling and analysis of WLAN protocols and behaviors. It provides functionalities for various WLAN protocols, including the 802.11 standards. Additionally, it contains structures and functions pertinent to the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer, addressing frame handling and collision detection. Furthermore, it supports operations related to the Physical (PHY) layer, such as signal propagation and reception. The header also defines functions and structures for configuring WLAN parameters, including SSID, channel selection, and security settings. Moreover, it includes routines for managing WLAN nodes, such as access points and client devices, thereby facilitating their interaction within the network.

PRE-REQUISITES:

  1. Fresh installation of Windows Vista OS:

OPNET Modeler 14.5 Installation

HEADER FILE VERIFICATION:

  1. Locate to the OPNET Example folder:

We need to locate the OPNET Example Folder by passing the following path shown in File Explorer, you can see the Example file utilized here.

2.Open any Project file in the folder:

Next we need to Open the .prj (OPNET Project File) file by double-clicking or Right click the file and Click OPNET 14.5 in the OPNET folder.

Open any Project file in the folder

Here we can see the Topology from the Example File.

3.Importing Wlan_support.h:

Here, we imported the Wlan_support.h header file code, which directly referenced the Opnet class and defined in the Highlighted Line, which WLAN parameters are set up here. This code line, which is internally accessible Wlan_support.h, is highlighted here. By clicking the nodes that are indicated by rounds as meant to be clicked instances, we will see the class file utilized in OPNET.

Importing Wlan_support.h

Here we will show the header file by opening “C:\Program Files\OPNET\14.5.A\models\std\include\Wlan_support.h” file to show the class or function imported from the Wlan_support.h in the example code. We highlighted lines that eventually Included in the Wlan_support.h, which is previously Highlighted code line in the script internally relies on WLAN parameters are set up here.
