Rules of Packet Transmission (Role of packet switching and routers)
How is data sent? Payload (the data) Destination Address Source Address (Packet or Datagram) When a computer wants to send a message or a file to another computer, it firstly separates the file into a series of data packets. (eg word document, MP 3 etc) Rules of Packet Transmission File

(IP Address) Packets via the Router D A T A Sending computer Packets about to be sent out onto the Internet The router is instrumental in sending packets onto their destination Data packets are reassembled having reached their destination D (IP Address) A T Rules of Packet Transmission A Receiving computer
The Router Gateway D A The Router Gateway The router inspects the computer’s address packets and sends it onto the next router. Rules of Packet Transmission A ‘mish mash’ of routers send messages on to their destinations
The Router Gateway D D A A T T A A Computer A x x If part of the network fails, then packets are rerouted around the failure. Rules of Packet Transmission Computer B
The Router Gateway Advantages of Packet Switching 1 When sending packets, the system is able to survive a partial network failure, as packets are rerouted 2 Packets can be rerouted around failures very quickly and set on a new path 3 The Internet can grow very quickly as its growth is based on the end points not on any centralised control 4 There is no need for Internet routers to notify each other as endpoint connections are formed and dropped 5 The integrity and security of each packet sent is handled by the endpoints, which simplifies the role of the Internet. 6 Each end point need only be aware of the router to which it is connected and optionally a name resolution service.
