Have a look at simpy.

Although it doesn't do the protocols you mention, it is a very good 
(imho)simulation toolkit in which it would be relatively easy to build 
whatever protocols you need.

I am using it for a traffic management simulation project, and have found it 
very easy to get going and be productive, and my one technical question to 
the simpy mail list was answered with three good suggestions in an hour.

The only drawback may be speed.
