packet-switching
|
|
name of the colored part? (not grey) |
network core |
|
|
store-and-forward
|
|
entire packet must arrive at router before it can be transmitted on next link
through the process of transmission packet might suffer delay |
store and forward
|
|
forward packets from one router to the next, across links on path from source to destination
each packet transmitted at full link capacity |
packet-switching
|
|
|
queueing delay, loss
|
|
If arrival rate (in bits) to link exceeds transmission rate of link for a period of time:
|
packets will queue, wait to be transmitted on link and packets can be dropped (lost) if memory (buffer) fills up
|
|
routing and forwarding |
key network-core functions
|
|
move packets from router’s input to appropriate router output
|
forwarding |
|
determines source-destination route taken by packets |
routing |
|
|
Two key network-core functions: routing and forwarding
|
|
|

|
end-end resources allocated to, reserved for “call” between source & dest
|
circuit switching |
|
dedicated resources: no sharing circuit segment idle if not used by call (no sharing) Commonly used in traditional telephone networks |
circuitswitching |
|
great for bursty data resource sharing simpler, no call setup |
