What is the difference between routers and switches
Answer / Vishwanath Chakravarty
Routers and switches are two different types of networking devices. Routers connect multiple networks and forward data packets based on their network addresses, whereas switches connect devices within a single network segment and forward data only to specific destinations. Switches can improve network performance by reducing collisions and increasing bandwidth efficiency, while routers play a key role in connecting multiple networks and routing traffic efficiently.
