Abstract

This paper presents comparison study based on link utilization in the networks running over RIP (Routing information Protocol), OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) and Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS). Poor link utilization in case of RIP and OSPF is identified. A detailed simulation study is performed over MPLS network where we have shown MPLS network has utilized most of links resulting in congestion avoidance, low queuing delays.
