DéfinitionIn the middle : routers

Routers are computers that transport requests from client to server and back answer from server to client.

Exemple

Exemple de client accédant à wikipedia.org
Réseau avec deux clients et wikipedia.org comme extrémitésInformations[2]
  1. The client send its request to the router it is connected to (example : the box).

  2. If the router knows the server (example : it is in the same network), it delivers the message (the request).

  3. If not, it delivers the message to another router known to be nearer the server.

  4. The next router does the same.

  5. One last router finally knows the server and delivers the message.

  6. The same process is used for the answer.
