This paper presents the simulation of a data communication network. Intranet performance evaluation in high load multi-protocols campus network will be evaluated. Real time data communication network with high load FTP, database access, E-mail, and VoIP with PCM quality application will be simulated. OPNET IT GURU Academic Edition will be used as network simulator. Many models are considered in the simulation and tested against many cases such as high load, utilization factor of links, and network topological change. Results will be collected and discussed based on the case study of building an Intranet for the North Oil Refineries of Baiji (NORB) in Iraq. Many Distributed Control Systems (DCS) used as control system for industrial applications in NORB will be connected through this Intranet. The simulation of the utilization factor of links presents an indication of network behavior when other services out of the scope of DCS are used over the same Intranet.
