Router: its core role is to achieve network interconnection, data forwarding.
1, the route (addressing): build a routing table, refreshing;
2, the exchange: forwarding the packet data between network;
3, broadcast isolation, develop access rules;
4, heterogeneous network interconnection;
5, the rate matching subnets.
Routing table stored in the RAM of the router.
Communication with the subnet: ARP Address Resolution;
Communication between the different segments: router forwards
Routing table configuration:
1, the destination network address;
2, mask;
3, the next hop address;
4, a physical transmitting port;
5, routing information sources;
6, route priority;
7, metric.
Route classification:
1, the default route;
2, direct route;
3, static routing;
4, dynamic routing
