In our university, how can we set up NetSim such that each student can have their own copy and work on NetSim? Is such a licensing model available? Hopefully some very low-cost options.
Yes, a licensing model is available that allows each student to have their own copy of NetSim and work on it individually. The licensing model is called “per-seat licenses”, which allows for multiple users to access the same version of the software, but each user has their own license. This allows each student to have their own copy of NetSim, which they can configure and use independently.
The cost of a per-seat license of NetSim for a university in India depends on the number of licenses purchased. Generally, a single license of NetSim costs around $100 USD, with discounts available for larger license orders. Please contact the NetSim sales team for more information on pricing.
Look at the cloud licensing model (https://www.tetcos.com/netsim-cloud-access.html) whereby students can connect (from anywhere) and run NetSim on their laptops.
If I recall, the cost depends on the number of licenses purchased by the univ. It may be around $100 for a small number (~10) of licenses and will drop considerably if you choose a large number of student licenses. For exact details you can email them via their contact page on website.

I agree with you, but i think, they are looking for a free license.
Yes it may be possible to get a very low cost license for teaching (academic) version of NetSim.
The R & D (standard) version may however be expensive.
Yes, such licensing is indeed possible. We choose the cloud licensing option for this in our university. Ver convenient. Also some ideas on what to teach and available labs https://www.researchgate.net/post/Lab_experiments_for_wireless_networking_course
