Paper describe the analysis of dynamic routing protocols EIGRP, OSPF and their combination i.e.OSPF-EIGRP for the scenario which have increasing number of workstations from 3 to 50 in steps working on three dissimilar applications (Database, E-mail, and HTTP).Initially three individual workstations were considered which then replaced by LANs of 10, 25 and 50 in order to appraise the recompense of one scenario over the other.Simulation is carried out with the help of Optimized Network Engineering Tool (OPNET) which gives the better edge over the other network simulation tools available.The assessment is based on the two parameters namely E-mail Upload Response Time and HTTP Page Response Time.The results concluded that overall best performance can be achieved with the help of EIGRP protocol for the given scenario.
