I still don't get it, in line 456 of route-proto.tcl, there's following
statement:
    $proto($node) add-peer $nbr [$rtproto set addr_]
To my knowledge, here addr_ should be the variable of $rtproto, which
is an routing agent (DV).

where's this "bind" called? I only find it in mip.cc, not in agent.cc.

Thanks.

But even running a simple simulation like .../ex/simple-rtg.tcl, you'll
get the following messages:

can't read "addr_": no such variable
    while executing

I think the problem is related to the "addr_" variable.
