Summary:Active networks are programmable networks. These networks provide the facility of executing code inside intermediate nodes. As compared to existing networks, these networks make user more powerful. User has the capability to perform computations of his own choice during the transmission of data. In this paper, the focus is on the simplest approach to develop an active network node. The design of node provides the facility of programmability to the node.
