Key Concepts

Router

Routers are devices that facilitate the movement of data between networks, making decisions on the optimal routes for data packets based on routing tables. In a link state routing protocol, every router generates its own routing table after processing all network link state information.

Inter-networking

Inter-networking refers to the practice of connecting different networks together to allow communication and data exchange. This involves the use of routers to manage traffic between separate network segments, ensuring efficient and reliable data transfer across the interconnected systems.

Link State Routing

This is a routing approach in which each router independently obtains complete knowledge of the network topology by exchanging link state information with all other routers. Using algorithms like Dijkstra's, each router computes the shortest path to every destination, resulting in a highly accurate and dynamic route selection process.

Routing Table

A routing table is a data structure stored in a router that lists all possible network destinations along with the corresponding next hop or path information required to reach them. In link state routing, each router builds its own routing table based on its computation from the full network topology.
