Routing protocols behaviour under bandwidth limitation
Dunãrea de Jos, Galati Romania · 2012
Nowadays, network stability is a very important factor in the communications environment. Many companies depend on the fast collaboration between the different departments and a fast reliable network is a must to meet the strict projects deadlines. Any large network uses a routing protocol to route packets between users. In the case of distant offices, a limited bandwidth link is acquired to connect the distant office to the headquarters. By simulating in a commercial environment the routing protocol's behavior under bandwidth limitation, it can be seen that end-to-end connectivity between users can be lost because of the routing protocol's packets that are discarded by the bandwidth limited links.
