Test Usability of Routing Protocol for QoS Parameters in Cloud

Cloud computing is emerging computer paradigm where computing storage and networking utilities are offered mainly to the business community. In this paper we use cloud computing in testing and simulating routing protocols. The benefit of simulating in the cloud is twofold it provides hardware independence for the underlying test environment, in addition to better methods for monitoring the performance of the protocol. The transmission time, delay and packet loss parameters are measured in the network through Quagga code for testing the efficiency in the particular routing protocol. After obtained result we show that, if the routing software is optimized, the pc-based routers perform better than commercial router.
