Switching and routing are two concepts that, although they share the goal of connecting devices, present crucial differences that impact the efficiency of communication networks.
Switching refers to the process of establishing and maintaining a connection between two devices seeking to communicate.
For example, when we make a phone call, the switching system is responsible for allocating and maintaining a circuit, whether physical or logical, between the sender and receiver, ensuring constant and smooth communication.
Routing, on the other hand, focuses on determining the optimal path that each data packet should take to reach its destination.
Specialized devices known as routers play a crucial role in this process, consulting routing tables to decide the path based on factors such as distance, cost, and network load.
