This paper presents th implementation decisions to be made when th choice is between protocols that involve distance vector or link state or the combination of both. Here a comparison is made between different parameters and a detailed simulation study is performed on the network with different routing protocols and it has been shown that EIGRP provides a better network convergence time, less bandwidth requirements and better CPU and memory utilization compared to OSPF and RIP. EIGRP, OSPF and RIP are the dynamic routing protocols being used in the practical networks to propagat network topology information to the neighboring routers. There have been a large number of static and dynamic routing protocols available but choice of the right protocol for routing is dependent on many parameters critical being network convergence time, scalability, memory and CPU requirements, security and bandwidth requirement etc.
