(see also bridge) - A protocol-dependent device that connects networks It is useful in breaking down a large network into smaller subnetworks Routers introduce longer delays and have lower throughput rates than bridges Like a bridge, a router restricts local area network (LAN) traffic
Something or someone that routes or directs items from one location to another
The role of a route can be described as a bridge between two or more networks The function of the router is to look at the destination addresses of the packets passing through it, and thereafter decide which route to send these packets on

routers
In IEEE 802 local area network (LAN) standards, routers are devices that connect autonomous networks of like architecture at the network layer (layer 3) Unlike a bridge which operates transparently to communicating end-terminals at the logical link layer (layer 2), a router reacts only to packets addressed to it by either a terminal or another router Routers perform packet (as opposed to frame) routing and forwarding functions; they can select one of many potential paths based on transit delay, network congestion or other criteria How routers perform their functions is largely determined by the protocols implemented in the networks they interconnect
