Generally a network simulator is used to analyse the performance and behaviour of a network. The Simulation software plays a vital role in real-world implementation. The hardware setup of network topologies are very costly and strenuous to modify often. The simulators act as the protocols for a system. The simulators in network such as Ns-2, Ns-3, OMNeT++, NetSim, J-SIM, REAL, OPNET, OMNEST, QualNetTraNS, NTCUns etc. It is quite a tedious process to select network simulator that is based up on the requirement for a users specified job. This paper gives a comparison and a general analysis of various network simulators.
