The
role of a router is to draw the correct route information should follow to be
forwarded from one network to another and this is why it is called a router. It
is a very important device because it makes the communication between the
internet and the computer easier. When the data is being sent from one network
to another it is divided into small pieces, which, in networks language, are
named packets. The router’s function is to lead those packets to the
right address they have to reach.
There
are two kinds of routers: Dynamic and static. The dynamic router has its previous
programming within a specific protocol but the static one needs to be
manually programmed.
Some
routers are specifically made to provide users with security services that
would not permit to hackers to use any personal information because it scans
the data before driving it to the destination network.
