The Research of Virtualization Emulator Based on Open Shortest Path First

Abstract

Computer network is one of the compulsory course for computer professional students, but students are boring for abstract network concepts, in order to improve the innovation of students, a virtual simulation tools named Packet Tracer is introduced into the classroom teaching, which can provide network simulation environment as real life with enough network equipment. This paper presents the configuration example of Open Shortest Path Firs Protocol, and proves the network connectivity simulation results, this is an efficient method for teaching and learning by visual emulator.
