• Switching is a process moving data from one interface
and delivering it through another interface, selecting the
best paths between machines that stores messages.
• The fundamental purpose of a communication system is
to exchange information between two or more devices.
• A switched network consists of a service of interlinked
nodes called switches, switches are hardware and
software device capable of creating temporary
connections b/w two or more devices linked to a switch
but not to each other.
• CIRCUIT SWITCHING
• PACKET SWITCHING
• MESSAGE SWITCHING
• Circuit switching is the dominant technology for both
voice and data communication.
• Communication via circuit switching in data
communication networks implies that there is
dedicated electrical, communication path between two
ports or hosts.
• The electrical path may be realized by physical wires
or co axial cables or radio or satellite communication.
• EX:-
Telephone network connection.
switching techniques in data communication and networking
• Packet-switched describes the type of network in which
relatively small units of data called packets are routed through
a network based on the destination address contained within
each packet.
• Breaking communication down into packets allows the same
data path to be shared among many users in the network.
• This type of communication between sender and receiver is
known as connectionless .
• The control information should at least contain:
– Destination Address
– Source Address
•Datagram
•Virtual circuit
• In Datagram packet switching each packet is a self- contained unit
with complete addressing information attached.
• This fact allows packets to take a variety of possible paths
through the network.
• So the packets, each with the same destination address, do not
follow the same route, and they may arrive out of sequence at
the exit point node (or the destination).
• Reordering is done at the destination point based on the
sequence number of the packets.
•In the Virtual Circuit approach a pre-planned route is established
before any packet are sent.
•There is a call set up before the exchange of data.
•All packets follow the same route and therefore arrive in
sequence.
•Each packet contains a virtual circuit identifier instead of
destination address
•More set up time
•No routing decisions required for each packet - Less routing or
processing time
•Susceptible to data loss in the face of link or node failure
•Clear request to drop circuit
•Not a dedicated path
• A message is a logical unit of information and can be of
any length.
• In message switching, if a station wishes to send a
message to another station, it first adds the destination
address to the message.
• Message switching does not establish a dedicated path
between the two communicating devices i.e. no direct link
is established between sender and receiver.
• Each message is treated as an independent unit.
