packet-switching
name of the colored part? (not grey)

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

circuit switching

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





packet switching
