A Matrix Usage for Load Balancing in Shortest Path Routing

The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol is a hierarchical interior gateway protocol (IGP) for routing in Internet Protocol. Traffic flows routed along shortest path and splits the load equally at nodes where a number of outgoing links on the shortest paths to the same destination IP address. Ne...
