Consider the network shown below with each link labeled by its bandwidth. Suppose the width of a path is defined as the bandwidth of the bottleneck link, i.e., the link with the smallest bandwidth along the path.
(a). Find the widest paths from C to all other network nodes assuming link-state routing. Show the steps in your computation.
W(v): Width of the path from source node C to destination v P(v): Previous node (neighbor of v) along the current widest path from C to destination v N: the set of nodes whose least-cost path from the source is definitely known.
For example, the width of path from C to B via D, W(B) when p(B)=D, is defined as: min{bandwidth C-D, bandwidth D-B}= min {3,2} = 2.
