What information is required by a router to successfully route packets?
MichaelJohnsonfb3447
To route a packet, usually an IP packet, a router compares the destination address to its (the router's) routing table. The router can get entries (rows) in its routing table in three different ways: (1) directly connected networks; (2) static routes (the route was configured manually by an administrator); (3) dynamic routes (the router learned available routes from a neighboring router, using a routing protocol such as RIP or OSPF).

What is L3 switch?
An L3 switch is sort of like a high powered router. These switches use hardware to route packets of information, as opposed to a regular router which uses software.
Why had Len Kleinrock and the other computer scientists gathered to observe the computer and the router?
They were about to see whether information could successfully flow between a computer and router, for the first time in history.
What is the purpose of the default route?
it is where the router sends all packets with destination of which it has knowledge.
What are Moving packets from source to destination across multiple networks called?
Router
What device connects a LAN to the internet?
A router can be used to connect a LAN to the internet. A router works on the basis of an IP address. Every router has built-in operating system known as IOS. A router works on the network layer of the OS model and it routes the data towards the optimal path. Router uses the header information of the packets and forwarding table to define the best shortest possible path of the data.
Which is a device that forwards packets between networks by processing the routing information included in the packet?
A router is a networking device that forwards data on a network.

Wic address is used by the router to direct a packet between networks?
The router only needs to know the next-hop address; in other words, it sends the data to the next router; this next router then takes its own decision.Each router maintains a routing table, with information about where to send IP packets. The information is stored on a per-network basis. When the router receives an IP packet, it consults the routing table, to see what is the next-hop address, and through which interface it must send the packet.The router only needs to know the next-hop address; in other words, it sends the data to the next router; this next router then takes its own decision.Each router maintains a routing table, with information about where to send IP packets.

What two statements describe packets that are sebt through a linksys integrated router using NAT?
Packets sent through Linksys integrated router using NAT can be described in two ways. First, packets have to be translated if they are sent to another LAN, and secondly, packets sent to hosts within the same LAN need no translation.
