Obtaining the NIST Net emulation package

New! Our regular software repository is temporarily offline. In the meantime, here is a temporary link to a copy of the current distribution:
nistnet.2.0.12.tar.gz.

No need to bother filling out the form below for now, since there's nothing available to read what you type....

So that we may have some idea of the interest in this package, we ask that you fill out the following form to download the code. All the data requested is for internal informational purposes only and will not be distributed outside of NIST. All fields are, of course, optional. For some semi-relevant information, see the NIST Privacy Statement/Security Notice. After filling out the form, you will be given a link to download the code.

Quoting from the NIST Net FAQ:

This software was developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology by employees of the Federal Government in the course of their official duties. Pursuant to title 17 Section 105 of the United States Code this software is not subject to copyright protection and is in the public domain.

In other words, you are free to use this software for any purpose desired, non-commercial or commercial, with no payment or even acknowledgement required. (Though not acknowledging usage is a bit on the rude side, isn't it?)

As is usual for software released in this way, there is absolutely no warranty of any sort. While we are continuing to develop the software and appreciate notice of any problems (to nistnet-dev@antd.nist.gov), we can make no guarantees!

* Please note that the list of countries comes from ISO 3166-1. I am not making political statements here! If you do not like the way ISO 3166-1 lists your country, you may instead put your preferred designation in the comment field above.

By requesting this code, you signify your understanding of these conditions.

Here's a generic NIST disclaimer that you may also want to look at.
