Network Switching Techniques( 1 ) Circuit Switching : In this technique first of all the
complete physical connection between two computers is established
and then data is transmitted from the source computer to the
destination computer. Its important property is to set up an end-to-
end connection between computer before any data can be sent.
( 2 ) Message Switching : In this technique the source
computer sends data or the message to the switching office firstcomputer sends data or the message to the switching office first
which stores the data. It then looks for a free link to another
switching office and then sends the data to this office. Hence it is
also known as store and forward.
( 3 ) Packet Switching : In message switching there is no limit
on block size but in Packet switching a fixed size of packet which
can be transmitted across the network is specified. In this all the
packets of fixed size are stored in the main memory. It improves the
performance as the access time is reduced.ASHOK GARG MOBILE : 9312249405
