Virtual Local Area Network Performance Improvement Using Ad Hoc Routing Protocols in a Wireless Network

Wireless Communication has become one of the most popular types communication networks because many services it provides; however, experienced several challenges in improving network performance. VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a different approach which enables administrator to create logical from physical network. By dividing large into smaller networks, technology improves efficiency, management, and security. This study includes for wireless with mobile nodes integration. The protection was improved by separating connections grouping them way that prevents any party being able contact unauthorized stations another using VLAN. demonstrated restricted access private server data managing traffic, security, reducing levels congestion. paper investigates virtual local area three ad hoc routing protocols number scenarios, Riverbed Modeler simulation, used as simulation program this study. It found investigation process adopting could reduce delay considerably lower throughput, major drawback Ad algorithms, including AODV (Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector), DSR (Dynamic Source Routing), OLSR (Optimized Link State Routing) protocols, were improve throughput Routing methods tested across WLAN obtain best gain findings also revealed these Sensor Network performance an additional improvement network’s throughput.
