Abstract :
This paper focuses on the current problems of NS2´s application in the computer network teaching, and introduces a drag-and-drop GUI nsBench which makes NS-2 simulation development and analysis faster and easier for students and researchers without losing the flexibility or expressiveness gained by writing a script. It is beneficial for student to directly understand the principles of network protocol. Thus, the teaching quality can be improved and an application example is provided.
