What is difference between packet switching frame switching and cell switching?

Packet Switching refers to the transfering of the packet from 1 node to the other.

Where as Cell Switching ,means the switching of a cell from 1 network to the other.

Pls note that Packet and Cells are 2 different forms.

Packet itself has header and pay load and but Packets are variable in size unlike cells which are fix.

When packets are switched, the Packet Switch is used and that Switch looks for the next hop in its routing or forwarding table but when a cell is switched, ATM switches are used and the cells actually carry the data and the header and travels from 1 ATM switch to the other. The ATM switches donot use the complex method as Packet Switches use.

How do you find a server ip?

Assuming you mean to find the ip address of a server running one or more domains (such as somedomain) there are a few options, depending on your OS;

- Windows: use the command prompt (choose start, Run, type 'cmd', enter) and type 'ping somedomain'. This will resolve the domain to an ip and start pinging. Also the 'tracert' command might be useful to further investigate the routing paths to the server.

- Linux: use the 'dig' command from the commandline. 'dig somedomain'. Beware that more info is displayed such as dns servers and more than just the 'A record' you might be looking for.
