In this study we present a simulation based comparative performance analysis between OSPF and EIGRP for real time applications by using Optimized Network Engineering Tools (OPNET) and Graphical Network Simulator (GNS3). In order to evaluate OSPF and EIGRP's performance, we have designed three network models where the first, second and third Network model are configured, respectively with OSPF, EIGRP and combination of EIGRP and OSPF. This study shows the estimation of proposed routing protocols based on the quantitative metrics such as Convergence Time, Throughput, End to End delay, Jitter and Packet Loss through the simulated network models. The evaluation results show that EIGRP routing protocol provides a better performance than OSPF routing protocol for real time applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
