About this document
Switching and Forwarding in Networks by K Sai Anirudh is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes a lecture on switching and forwarding in computer networks. It discusses how switches allow networks to interconnect multiple nodes and scale to a global size. Switches receive packets on one port and forward them to another port. There are two main approaches - connectionless datagram switching uses addresses to forward each packet independently, while connection-oriented virtual circuit switching sets up paths through the network before transmitting data packets along those paths
