Abstract
A new flood routing protocol for LANs with arbitrary topology is described, and studied by means of simulation modelling. The protocol, marked as T-MAFR, has better performance than the known protocol MAFR, but its implementation is simpler. The results of simulation experiments give the comparison of three LAN protocols: CSMA/CD, MAFRT, and T-MAFR.
