  Abstract

In OSPF, the larger and more unstable the area, the greater the likelihood for performance problems associated with routing protocol recalculation. Generally, an area should have no more than 50 routers. Areas with unstable links should be smaller. Military tactical data network is used for military operations during war-time. It consists of wireless network for mobility of node. Thus, it has low-bandwidth and unstable property. In addition, it is expected that many kinds of router-failure, Link-failure and recovery at emergency period. However, Military tactical data network is designed with about one and half times the number of recommendation. This paper proves that the traffic is limited by the increase of re-calculation of area.
