Great explanations on switching and routing. A routing table is a database that keeps track of paths, like a map and uses these to determine which way to forward traffic. A routing table is a data file in RAM used to store route information about directly connected and remote networks. A router can link both LAN (Local Area Network) as well as WAN (Wide Area Network) and transmit data to other connected networks. A switch can join multiple devices in a LAN.
