             <p><strong>OMNeT++</strong> is a simulation platform for discrete-event systems. Even though it is primarily targeted at simulating computer networks and
 distributed systems, it cannot be used without any extensions for wireless communication. For this kind of simulations, external model frameworks have to be included.
 Currently, there are two prominent model frameworks which cover whole model suites for according focus of wireless research.
 These are the Mobility Framework and the <strong>INET</strong> Framework. As INET provides all models necessary for simulating Vehicle-2-X communication,
 it is selected for the integration to Eclipse MOSAIC.</p>
 <p>For more information on the <strong>INET</strong> extension you should look closer on the
 <a href="https://inet.omnetpp.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a>.</p>

 <h3 id="omnet-federate-configuration">OMNeT++ Federate Configuration</h3>
 <p>To use OMNeT++ as network simulator in an Eclipse MOSAIC simulation, open <code>&lt;scenarioName&gt;/mosaic/mosaic_config.xml</code> and enable OMNeT++:</p>
 <pre><code class="language-xml">&lt;federate id=&quot;omnetpp&quot; active=&quot;true&quot; /&gt;
 </code></pre>
 <p>Now, when you run this scenario, Eclipse MOSAIC will automatically start the Eclipse MOSAIC OMNeT++ Federate.</p>
 <p>The main configuration of the Eclipse MOSAIC OMNeT++ Federate is done within the configuration files <code>omnetpp.ini</code> and <code>omnetpp_config.json</code> in the scenario:</p>
 <pre><code class="language-FOLDER">└─ &lt;scenario_name&gt;
    └─ omnetpp
       ├─ omnetpp.ini ...................... OMNeT++ federate configuration file
       └─ omnetpp_config.json .............. Ambassador configuration file
 </code></pre>
 <p>The whole OMNeT++ specific configuration is done via the <code>omnetpp.ini</code> file. It covers static parts for the
 simulator coupling such as the specific Eclipse MOSAIC Event Scheduler and the ScenarioManager. Furthermore,
 logging configurations and the typical parameters for the communication layers (MAC, PHY and Radio
 Channel) are addressed. The communication parameters are different for vehicles and RSUs. Please refer
 to the OMNeT++ documentation on the OMNeT++ homepage for further information about the structure
 of the <code>omnetpp.ini</code> file.</p>
