High-Speed Router

Routers use headers and forwarding tables in order to construct the best path for forwarding data packets between two or more computer networks. There are protocols in place such as the basic Internet protocol (IP), the transmission control protocol (TCP), and the internet control message protocol (ICMP) that allow for communication and enable routers to configure efficient data trails. Protocols such as these can be used to transfer information between all networks that are interconnected. They are effective with LAN (local area network) and WAN (wide area network) communications.

IP Routers

Internet protocol (IP) routing is a dynamic process as opposed to a static one. This means that the routes upon which data packets are transferred must be calculated automatically at regular intervals by software in routing devices. An IP router allows the packets to travel through interconnected networks one hop at a time. This means that at each stop along the way, a packet’s next destination is calculated until it reaches its final destination.

Serial Routers

Serial routers can refer to routers that transfer data between networks one bit at a time. They can be used to link multiple local area networks or wide area networks, determining the best path that information should take between them. Routers also give you the ability to connect a local area network to the network of an internet service provider. Serial data transference represents the opposite of a system that utilizes parallel data transfer, as parallel systems can transfer and take on several bits of data concurrently.
