OMNeT++ (Objective Modular Network Testbed in C++) is a modular, component-based C++ simulation library and framework, primarily for building network simulators. OMNeT++ can be used for free for non-commercial simulations like at academic institutions and for teaching.OMNEST is an extended version of OMNeT++ for commercial use cases.
OMNeT++ itself is a generic modular simulation framework without models for like or . The main computer network simulation models are available in several external frameworks. The most commonly used one is INET which offers a variety of models for all kind of network protocols and technologies like for MANET, WSN, IPv6, etc. INET also offers a set of mobility models to simulate the node movement in simulations. The INET models are licensed under the LGPL or GPL.
