Abstract :
Network Simulator 2 (NS2) is one of the more used network simulator across the globe. However, NS2 is often associated with a steep learning curve for new users. Therefore an effort to automate the process of using NS2 using a graphical user interface (GUI) has been initiated. The paper describes the tool kit GUI known as Internet protocol quality of services toolkit (IPQit). It provides an easy to use GUI for both network topology creation and post-processing of NS2. Its usage is mainly intended for educational purposes. It supports quality of services (QoS) technology.
