OMNeT++ is an extensible, modular, component-based C++ discrete-event simulation framework for building network simulators. A .ned file is one of the source files used by an OMNeT++ project.
The file describes network elements such as modules, parameters, gates, and connections, allowing OMNeT++ to construct the network model for simulation. NED files remain part of the current OMNeT++ project workflow and are normally used together with the project's other model and configuration files.
On Windows, open the .ned file in the OMNeT++ IDE to view and edit the network description with its language-aware tools. Because NED is a text-based language, the file can also be viewed in a text editor, but OMNeT++ is needed to use it as part of a simulation project.
A .ned file is a source description for an OMNeT++ network model, so it is not normally converted to another file format. Keep it as a text-based NED file and use it directly in the OMNeT++ project.
