The objective of this thesis was to create a network emulator, suitable for evaluatingsolutions in a small-cell wireless mesh SDN backhaul network environment, by integratingexisting software. The most important efforts in this process have been a transparentintegration of Mininet and ns-3 at both the data and the control plane, with ns-3 servingas the front-end. The goal has been to design the system such that solutions revolvingaround fast failover, resilient routing, and energy efficient small cell management may beevaluated. The constituent components include an augmented ns-3 WiFi module withmillimeter wave communication capabilities; a socket API suitable for remote-controllermanagement, as well as the network emulator Mininet. Mininet in turn integrates OpenvSwitch, virtual hosts in the form of Linux network namespaces, and OpenFlow controllers.The work has also included a brief evaluation of the system, which revealed that the designhas a fundamental flaw. / SOCRA

Diploma thesis deals with creating four laboratory tasks using simulation tool OMNeT++ and Inet Framework extension. Subject matter of these designed tasks is focused on routing protocols, providing quality of service, computer networking technologies used in local area networks and comparison of active networking devices. First task contains the comparison of behaviour and routing techniques between protocols RIPv2 and OSPFv2, including the effect of dividing OSPF network into smaller areas. Second task is focused on various techniques for controlling quality of service, namely FIFO queue, PQ and WFQ. Main goal is the comparison of results, that define quality of network services. Third task compares networking technologies, Ethernet and WLAN, parameters of transmission. Fourth task offers comparison of networking devices, hub, switch and router. This paper also contains required theory of network technologies and software tools used for executing simulations.
