Performance comparison of MAC protocols using OPENT Aim To simulate OPNET for Performance comparison of MAC protocols Procedure

1. 2. 3. 4. Create a New Project Create the Network for switched LAN star topology Create a topology with 15 nodes connected to the switch Create the necessary traffic for all the 15 nodes in the topology constant packet size, exponential interarrival time, etc.., 5. Enable the statistics like delay experienced, total bytes sent, received and lost. 6. Configure and Run the simulation 7. Duplicate the scenario 8. Select the Ethernet topology 9. With the same parameters, run the topology. 10. Compare the graphical output.

OUTPUT

RESULT Thus a procedure is written to compare the performance of MAC protocols using OPNET. Performance comparison of Routing protocols using OPENT Aim To simulate OPNET for Performance comparison of Routing protocols Procedure
1. Create a New Project 2. Create the configure any network

3. Assign the type of the protocol used by setting the cost metric 4. Set corresponding bandwidth for the links 5. Create any traffic from any of the two routers 6. Select the protocol used as OSPF 7. Configure the simulation 8. Duplicate the scenario 9. Change the type of protocol used as RIP 10. Configure the simulation and run it. 11. Compare the graphical output of the two routing protocols

OUTPUT

RESULT Thus a procedure is written to compare the performance of routing protocols using OPNET. Study of TCP/ UDP using OPENT Aim To simulate OPNET for Performance comparison of TCP/ UDP protocols Procedure

1. 2. 3. 4.

Start up OPNET IT Guru Academic Edition. Select the File tab => New... Choose Project and click on OK. Change the Project Name to xx_TCP_vs_UDP (where xx are your initials). Set the Scenario Name to TCP and click on OK. 5. In the Initial Topology window, select Create Empty Scenario and click on Next. 6. In the Choose Network Scale window, select World and click on Next. 7. In the Choose Map window, choose world and click on Next. 8. In the Select Technologies window, click on Next.In the Review window, click on OK. 9. Create the configure any network 10. Create any application layer traffic for the nodes to communicate 11. For TCP e-mail transfer 12. For UDP video conferencing 13. Select the output statistics as traffic received, traffic send, throughput, etc.., 14. run the simulation and compare the graphs OUTPUT

RESULT Thus a procedure is written to compare the performance of TCP/ UDP protocols using OPN
