Simulating routing protocols between two university campuses to replicate a video conference application

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2016 im Fachbereich Informatik - Angewandte Informatik, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In this study, traffic was generated to replicate a video conference application and simulate routing protocols between routers representing virtual CPUT campuses.

In this modern age where everything depends on the internet, the importance of using available network resources to our advantage efficiently especially routing packets is starting to be appreciated. Routers are an essential part of the rapid growth of the internet and in the general networking community.

Routers mainly direct packets or messages to a desired destination using routing protocols and transport protocols. It is important for one to configure their router using the most appropriate routing protocol to suit their needs.
