Background of the Study
Routing protocols are essential for determining the most efficient path for data to travel across a network. In educational institutions like Federal University, Birnin Kebbi, the performance of network routing directly impacts the speed and reliability of communications, academic resources, and online services. Poorly optimized routing can result in network congestion, packet loss, and high latency, which can significantly degrade the user experience for students, staff, and faculty.
Optimizing routing protocols helps improve network performance by reducing congestion, improving bandwidth utilization, and enhancing the overall efficiency of the network. This study will focus on optimizing the routing protocols used at Federal University, Birnin Kebbi, by analyzing current network traffic patterns, identifying bottlenecks, and applying routing techniques such as OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) or BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) for better performance.
Statement of the Problem
The network routing protocols at Federal University, Birnin Kebbi, are not fully optimized, leading to inefficiencies in data transmission, network congestion, and slow response times for academic and administrative services. These issues affect the overall functionality of the university’s network infrastructure.
Objectives of the Study
-
To analyze the existing network routing protocols at Federal University, Birnin Kebbi.
-
To identify areas where routing protocols can be optimized to improve network performance.
-
To implement and evaluate optimized routing protocols to enhance the efficiency of the university’s network.
Research Questions
-
What are the current network routing protocols in use at Federal University, Birnin Kebbi?
-
What are the causes of inefficiency and congestion in the university’s network routing?
-
How can network routing protocols be optimized to improve network performance and reduce congestion?
Scope and Limitations of the Study
This study will focus on optimizing the network routing protocols specifically within the campus network of Federal University, Birnin Kebbi. It will not address external networks or third-party services. The limitations of the study include potential difficulties in implementing real-time protocol changes and testing their effectiveness within an active network environment.
