Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes dynamically forming a temporary network without the aid of any established infrastructure or centralized administration.The mobility of nodes in MANETs results in frequent changes of network topology making routing in MANETs a challenging task.Routing protocols in MANET helps node to send and receive packets.Some studies have been reported in the literature to evaluate the performance of the proposed routing algorithms.This paper evaluates the performance of reactive (DSR) routing protocols in MANETs based on Average end-to-end delay, Throughput using OPNET 14.5.The performance DSR routing protocols is evaluated with respect to throughput and end-to-end delay under different traffic load using OPNET simulator.
