2. Switching is the process of moving data from one interface, transferring data via another interface, and selecting the best path between machines storing messages. The basic purpose of a communication system is to exchange information between two or more devices. A switched network consists of interconnected node services called switches. This is a hardware and software device that creates a temporary connection, not two or more devices linked to the switch, rather than an interconnect.

Circuit switching is a key technology in voice and data communications. Communication by circuit switching in a data communication network means that there is a dedicated electrical communication path between two ports or hosts. The electrical path can be achieved by physical cable or coaxial cable, or by radio or satellite communication. Example: - Telephone network connection

5. Packet switching is the type of network in which relatively small units of data called packets are routed through the network based on the destination address contained in each packet. Decomposing the communication into packets allows you to share the same data path among many users in the network. This communication between sender and recipient is called no connection. The control information should include at least the following items. - Destination address - Source address

In datagram packet switching, each packet is a separate unit with complete addressing information. With this fact, packets can take various paths through the network. Thus, each packet with the same destination address does not follow the same path and they may arrive out of order to the egress node (or destination). Sorting group-based serial numbers at the destination point

In the virtual circuit scheme, a pre-planned route is established before the packet is sent. The call is set up before the data is exchanged. Since all packets follow the same path, they arrive in order. Each packet contains a virtual circuit identifier instead of a destination address Setup time is increased Packet routing is not required for each packet - reduced routing and processing time In the event of a link or node failure, data loss Clear requests are discarded. Line is not a dedicated path

9. A message is a logical unit of information that can contain information of arbitrary length. In a message exchange, if a station wishes to send a message to another station it first adds the destination address to the message. Message exchange does not establish a dedicated route between the two communication devices, ie no direct link is established between the sender and the recipient. Each message is treated as a separate unit

Prior to advancing packet switching, message exchanges served as an effective alternative to circuit switching. Initially it was used for data communication such as telex network and tape relay system. Message exchanges were largely replaced by packet exchanges, but the technology is still being used for self-organizing sensor networks, military networks and satellite communications networks. In message exchange, the source node and the target node are not directly connected. Instead, intermediate nodes (mainly switches) serve to transfer messages from one node to the next. Therefore, when sufficient resources become available, each intermediate node in the network must store each message before retransmitting the message. If resources are not available, messages are stored indefinitely. This function is called storage and transfer.

Message exchange is a network switching technology where data is routed from the source node to the destination node. During message routing, each intermediate switch in the network stores the entire message. If the network-wide resources are occupied or the network is blocked, the message-switched network stores and delays the message until sufficient resources are available to efficiently transmit the message.
