Performance Evaluation of IPv4 and IPv6 Routing Protocols on Wired, Wireless and Hybrid Networks
A routing protocol is used to determine the optimal path to forward the packets from source to destination. A separate set of protocols is designed for IPv4&IPv6 network such as RIP, OSPF-v2, RIPng, OSPF-v3, and AODV. IPv4 is replaced by IPv6 (next generation internet protocol), but both the protocols are not suitable for each other, due to this they need to coexist for a long time. In this paper, the performance is evaluated for different routing protocols for IPv4 and IPv6 over wired, wireless and the hybrid network. Simulations are carried out on EXata/Cyber 2.1 Simulator/Emulator. The performance of routing protocols is measured on the basis of throughput, jitter, end-to-end delay and packet delivery ratio (PDR). By the simulation, on the basis of throughput and PDR performance of AODV (IPv4) is very good as compared with other routing protocols. It has been observed that due to the size of the IPv6 header, which is larger than IPv4 header the performance of routing protocols downgrades.
