description As organizations keep expanding every day, there is a rapidly increasing need for communication networks to share routing information amongst the different routing protocols reliably. This study investigated the different ways network performance could be improved in a multiple protocol environment. As packets are routed from one routing domain to another, there are much packet losses, slow convergence time after link failures, instability and packets taking too many paths to reach its destinations due the different metrics used by the different routing protocols. In this study, the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) routing protocols were redistributed into one instance of routing. Packets were sent from EIGRP to OSPF domain and vice versa using the modified and default settings. The results showed that significant reduction in timer values reduced packet losses, increased network stability and also speedup convergence time for packets exiting the OSPF to EIGRP domains and vice versa.  Shorter paths to destination was observed to ensure timely delivery of packets. The study provides valuable insights into enhancing the efficiency of numerous routing protocols operating as a unified entity. In order to effectively manage numerous protocols, network engineers and administrators must have a strong understanding of route redistribution procedure.
