Packet switching

Method of transmitting data thru variety of different paths

User is billed by the data packets sent and;

Not the route or distance traveled (as opposed to circuit-

switching in leased/ dedicated phone lines)

Eliminates need for expensive dedicated lines

The Internet is a packet-switched network.

i.e.; Transmissions can route anywhere without regard to

distance.

In packet switching, the source and destination are

known, but the path automatically changes (it is variable).
