Abstract:

 

This paper presents a discrete event system specification (DEVS)-based  comparative performance analysis between the open shortest path first (OSPF)  protocol and the routing information protocol (RIP), together with the  border gateway protocol (BGP), using DEVS-Suite. In order to evaluate the  OSPF and RIP's scalability performance, several network models are designed  and configured with the OSPF and RIP, in combination with the BGP.    Evaluations of the proposed routing protocols are performed based on the  metrics, such as the execution time, convergence time, turnaround time,  throughput, and efficiency across an increasing size and complexity through  the simulated network models. The evaluation results show that the OSPF  routing protocol provides a better scalability performance than the RIP  routing protocol for Internet applications.
