This creates an overlay internetwork, as a router is connected to two or more data lines from different networks. When a data packet comes in one of the lines, the router reads the address information in the packet to determine its ultimate destination. Then, using information in its routing table or routing policy, it directs the packet to the next network on its journey. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. A data packet is typically forwarded from one router to another through the networks that constitute the internetwork until it reaches its destination node. / Warning Receiver system detect the radio emissions of radar systems. Their primary purpose is to issue a warning when a radar signal that might be a threat such as a police speed detection radar is detected. / a node, connected to multiple networks, that forwards packets from one network to another. It is much more complex than bridges that work between networks having compatible protocols. Also called a gateway. |
