Estudio comparativo de los protocolos eigrp y eigrp open usando gns3

Abstract

EIGRP is the enhanced interior gateway routing protocol developed by Cisco Systems and has been around for many years due to its stability, speed of convergence, and the performance it provides when working in production networks. A few years ago Cisco Systems decided to make its protocol compatible with equipment from other manufacturers, so EIGRP was released for standardization bodies to work on what is currently known as EIGRP Open, released in RFC 7868. In educational environments, there has been an interest in experimenting with the advantages that a multiplatform protocol such as EIGRP Open would bring to computer networks. Some works have emerged from this interest that have served as a reference for the realization of this project. Through a process of searching and gathering information, it has been identified that the EIGRP code has been embedded in a Linux image by means of the Quagga suite, the same one used in this project, thus initiating the idea of conducting a comparative study. of the EIGRP and EIGRP Open protocols, for the routing of IP version 4 packets, a network topology based on Ethernet links is subsequently designed in which the configurations are possible.
