Аналіз роботи протоколу GLBP в інфокомунікаційних мережах з підвищеними вимогами до відмовостійкості

Abstract

The work presents the results of designing and analyzing a fault-tolerant information and communication network using the GLBP protocol within virtual network simulation environments. The protocol was configured and evaluated under different load-balancing modes, including Round Robin and weighted balancing. An experimental study was conducted to assess network behavior in the event of an Active Virtual Gateway in GLBP group failure, allowing the response time and correctness of role reassignment mechanisms to be examined. The obtained quantitative results confirm the effectiveness of GLBP in enhancing network resilience and ensuring balanced infrastructure performance. Based on the analysis, recommendations were developed for applying the GLBP protocol in networks with increased reliability and availability requirements.
