Router A address
If data packets are sent via node points, for example from the company
computer to the Internet or a WAN / LAN, routers are needed to distribute
the data packets in different directions based on their address.
Routers are computers designed especially for this purpose that are
equipped with their own operating system. They have the task of analyzing
millions of IP packets, reading their headers and then forwarding them on in
the right direction.
