custom protocol stack implementation, ad-hoc network

[cody.ray]

I am writing a custom protocol stack for a disruption-tolerant network that I am designing. However, once I finish the protocol itself, I wish to implement it. Thats where the tricky part comes in. I dont know how to implement a protocol stack. I know in windows you can import a protocol, but I don't know how to write it, and I've googled for hours and not found anything, but maybe I'm just a sloppy googler..
Any suggestions? Thanks....
