Routing and switchingcapabilities of computer networks seem as the closed environment containing a limited set of deployed protocols, whichnobody dares to change. The majority ofwired network designs are stuck with OSPF (guaranteeing dynamic routingexchange on network layer) and RSTP (securing loop-free data-link layertopology). Recently, more use-case specific routing protocols, such as Babel,have appeared. These technologies claim to have better characteristic than current industry standards. Babel is a fresh contribution to the family of distance-vectorrouting protocols, which is gaining its momentum for small double-stack (IPv6 and IPv4) networks. This paper briefly describesBabel behavior and provides details on its implementation in OMNeT++ discreteevent simulator.
