Routing Algorithms
Routing as we can say is selecting the best path in the network to transfer data from one point to another. And Routing algorithm on a router in computer networks decides on which incoming line a packet should travel and thus creating the routing decision. It depends on various factors like stability, robustness, simplicity, correctness, fairness and optimality.
Routing algorithms are based on two classes namely. Adaptive : In this the routing process is adapted based on any changes made to the topology or traffic.
Eg: Hierarchical, Link State, distance vector, broadcast and multicast. Non Adaptive: In this process the routing decisions are mostly computed in advance and will be downloaded to the routers at the boot

This is a level 2 routing system and we can use 3-to 4 level of these kind of routings aswell.
2. Link State Routing Protocols: It calculates the best paths to network by constructing the topology of the entire network area and then map the best path from this topology or map of all the interconnected networks. The inputs of LS algorithm i.e network topology and the link costs are known before hand. This can be achieved by having each broadcast link-state packets to every node in the network and thus each link-state containing the cost of its attached links. This is termed as link-state broadcast.
In LS algorithm, every router must do some the following things, Find the clients and record the IP address Gauze the delays and cost of every client. Build a LS packet to send this packet to each and every the router on the network. And then find the shortest path on every router.(Sink tree)
3. Distance Vector Routing: DV algorithm is distributed as it receives information of one or more nodes which are directly attached to it and distributes the same back to its neighbors. It is said to be asynchronous because as it does not need all of the nodes to operate in lockstep with one other. And it is iterative because as this process continues as long as there is no information to be exchanged between the neighbors.
In this routing there are two vectors called a delay node and a successor node, so router ihas
Di =[di1…diN]T and Si=[Si1…SiN]T dij = current estimate of
3: Network Layer: The use of network layer is switching and routing technologies. It demonstrates logical path and virtual circuits for transferring data from one node to
// - FTP/TCP flow from n0 to n3, starting at time 1.2 to time 1.35 sec.
The Router protocols implemented will be a OSPF which stands for (open shortest path first). Because of the large network being introduced this protocol will be the most useful. This protocol operates on Internal Gateway Protocols by routing the most direct path and using the bandwidth most optimally. This not only reduces the use of
the routing protocol is simply flooding, S will broadest the data packets and then these data packets are rebroadcasted by every neighbor of S, and
In a figure all ways from S to D incorporate hosts that are outside the request zone. Accordingly, there is no surety that a way can be discovered comprising just of the hosts in a picked request zone. In this manner, if a route is not found inside of a suitable timeout period, our convention Wows S to start another route disclosure with an extended request zone – in our simulations, the extended zone incorporates the whole system space. in this case the inactivity in deciding the route to D be longer.
23. The process used by a router to accept a packet on one interface and forward it out another interface.
5. Loading state – In this state one neighbor sends LSRs (Link State Requests) for every network about whom it does not know. The other neighbor replies with the LSUs (Link State Updates) which will have information about requested networks. After all the requested information has been received, the same process will be going to repeat for all other neighbor.
In the location-based routing, sensor nodes are distributed randomly in an interesting area. They are positioned mostly by utilizing of Global position system. The distance among the sensor nodes is evaluated by the signal strength obtained from those nodes and coordinates are computed by interchanging information among neighbouring nodes. Location-based routing networks are;
Ranges of Addresses – Class A, Class B and Class C and the private ranges
In this example, we have three routers A, B and C. C’s E0 is directly connected to 192.168.3.0. And C’s routing table is (192.168.3.0; 0; E0) which shows that 192.168.3.0 is 0 hop away. RIP (Routing Information Protocol), running on C, tells B that 192.168.3.0 is reachable through C with a distance of 0. B adds 1 hop to the distance and enters the route to 192.168.3.0 into its own routing table which becomes (192.168.3.0; 1; S1). Now RIP is running on B and tells C that 192.168.3.0 is 1 hop away. Similarly, C adds 1 hop to the distance and enters the route to 192.168.3.0 into its own routing table which becomes (192.168.3.0; 2; S1).
This protocol use Dijkstra algorithm. It maintains a complex data base, also called as link state database, which contains full information about the remote routers and the exact network topology. The goal from this protocol is to provide similar information about network connection to each router, so each router can calculate the best route to each network this is happen when each router generates information about itself and pass these information to other routers in the network so each router make a copy of this information without changing it.
(b) Redirection with modified hop count: This type of attack is targeted against the AODV protocol in which a malicious node can increase the chances that they are included on a newly created route by resetting the hop count field of a RREQ packet to zero. [17]
A group of wireless sensor nodes (devices) dynamically constructs a temporary network without the exercise of any pre-existing network infrastructure or centralized administration. The main goal of ad-hoc networking is multihop broadcasting in which packets are transferred from source node to destination node through the intermediate nodes (hops). The main function of multi hop WSN is to enable communication between two terminal devices through a bit of middle nodes, which are transferring information from one level to another level. On the foundation of network connectivity, it dynamically gets to determine that which nodes should get included in routing, each node involved in routing transmit the data to further
The purpose of this paper is to provide a better understanding of switching and routing used in a network environment and familiarize the reader with various hardware and software associated with there functions. This paper will look at some switching concepts that will include store and forward switching, cut through switching, fragment free switching, and V-Lan. This paper will also cover routing concepts, along with some comparisons including routed vs. routing protocols, Classful vs. classless protocols, and distance vector vs. link state protocols.
Using the provided network diagram, write a program that finds the shortest path routing using the Bellman-Ford algorithm. Your program should represent the fact that your node is U. Show how the iterative process generates the routing table for your node. One of the keys to your program will be in determining when the iterative process is done.
