Comparative study of RIP, OSPF and EIGRP protocols using Cisco Packet Tracer

Determined by the development of new types of routing protocols, the process of designing of the new topologies had radically changed the last years. At the modern time this designing process should take into account all the existing services and also the ones that could be implemented in the future if we keep in mind the fact that at present we witness an amazing development of the traffic generated by the various applications. The study is focused on the comparative analysis of the routing protocols RIPv2 (Routing Information Protocol), OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) and EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) using the soft Cisco Packet Tracer.
