Re: [ns] Way to access "node" object through an attached agent?

[George Riley <riley@ece.gatech.edu>]

Here's a snippet that I believe does what you want:

    # Create agents and traffic sources
    set u($i) [new Agent/UDP]
    $ns attach-agent $s($i) $u($i)
    set n($i) [new Agent/Null]
    $ns attach-agent $t($i) $n($i)
    $ns connect $u($i) $n($i)
puts "Agent node is [$u($i) set node_]"
puts "Agent node id is [[$u($i) set node_] id]"
puts "Agent port is [$u($i) set agent_addr_]"
