Dynamic routing is a network routing technique that automatically adjusts the paths data packets take based on current network conditions, enhancing efficiency and reliability. It utilizes algorithms to adapt to changes such as network topology, traffic load, and link failures, ensuring optimal data transmission routes in real-time.

Data packets are structured units of data formatted for network transmission, containing headers, payload, and sometimes trailers, to ensure each piece arrives accurately and in sequence. They are fundamental to modern networking, enabling diverse and complex data exchange across the internet by using protocols to manage flow control, error detection, and congestion avoidance.

Enhancing Reliability

Algorithms are step-by-step procedures or formulas for solving problems or performing tasks, and are fundamental to computer science and artificial intelligence. They optimize processes by providing clear instructions that can be executed by machines to achieve desired outcomes efficiently and effectively.

Network topology refers to the arrangement of different elements (links, nodes, etc.) in a computer network. It is crucial for determining the performance, scalability, and fault tolerance of the network infrastructure.

network topology

Traffic load refers to the volume of data or number of vehicles traversing a network or road system over a given period, impacting efficiency, speed, and congestion levels. Effective management of traffic load is crucial for optimizing network performance and minimizing delays, requiring strategic planning and real-time monitoring.
