Abstract
Methods and systems for simulating IP networks. Routing Clusters are formed by grouping routers that are connected directly or indirectly and are running the same routing protocol. Routers that are configured to run more than one routing protocols became Border Routers for routing clusters based on these routing protocols. Routing tables are formed by flooding the routers inside the routing clusters and by flooding routes across routing links by redistribution command.
