- Digital information is transmitted as packets.
- Digital information is available before transmission.
- The information is divided before transmission.
- The divided information forms packets.
- The packets are prepared for transmission.
- Transmission begins.
- Routers receive the packets.
- Routers examine each packet.
- Each packet is considered individually.
- Routers forward the packets.
- Packets are forwarded toward their destination.
- Packets may travel through different routes.
- Different packets may follow different paths.
