OpenThread Network Simulator (OTNS) simulates Thread networks using OpenThread POSIX instances and provides visualization and management of those simulated networks.
Note: this is a fork of the OpenThread OTNS project by IoTconsultancy.nl with some additional features:
- Support for more accurate RF simulation of the OpenThread node. Requires the OpenThread platform
ot-rfsimto be selected, which specifically supports RF simulation. This project is included as a Git submodule. - Selectable radio (RF propagation) models.
- Control of logging display from OT-node, using
logandwatchCLI commands. Logging to file per OT-node. - Animations with duration scaled to the actual time duration of a packet in flight (at low simulation speed only).
- Various UI look & feel improvements.
