Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 6, Problem 5RQ
Explanation of Solution
Differences between circuit-switching and packet-switching network:
| Circuit Switching | Packet Switching |
|
In circuit switching, data are transferred between various nodes through the signal. |
In packet switching, data are divided into packets and sent through the network. |
|
Data are transferred through the same path between the source and destination. |
Data are transferred through multiple paths between source and destination... |
