What is Router

1.

Router is an inter-networking device that forwards the packets from one computer network to another. Routers perform the traffic route finding on the Internet by means of a routing table. Learn more in: Crime Identification Using Traffic Analysis of HTTP Botnet

2.

Router is a networking device whose software and hardware are usually tailored to the tasks of routing and forwarding information. Learn more in: Scheduling Large-Scale DNA Sequencing Applications

3.

A router is a device used to link two networks. Routers play a key role by transferring and routing all the data communication across the network in a proper mode. Each router maintains a routing table and address resolution protocol (ARP) cache. A router keeps a record of the network node addresses and current network status.

4.

A device or setup that finds the best route between any two networks, even if there are several networks to traverse. Like bridges, remote sites can be connected using routers over dedicated or switched lines to create WANs. Learn more in: Cloud Computing

A device that forwards data packets along networks. Learn more in: Design and Implementation of a Distributed Firewall

9.

It is a traffic forwarding network device. It is used to forward the data packet on the basis of the destination host. All the routers traversed by the data packet constitute its networking path.
