   Linked via "Routing"

   Addressing and Routing Mechanisms
   Digital networks require unique identifiers for addressing constituent nodes. The Internet Protocol (IP) provides logical addressing structures (IPv4 and IPv6) that enable global reachability. Routing, the process of determining the path a packet takes, relies on dynamic routing protocols that calculate the "cost" of various paths.
   The cost metric in many legacy networks is based on the sum of link latencies. However, in high-density metrop…
