What is a switching in data communication?

Switching in data communication refers to the process of directing data packets through a network from a source to a destination. It involves the use of devices, such as switches and routers, to determine the optimal path for data transmission based on factors like network topology and traffic load. There are various switching methods, including circuit switching, packet switching, and message switching, each with distinct advantages and use cases. Effective switching enhances network efficiency and reduces latency in data transfer.
