Router Basics

"Light-speed router devices" is a term that suggests high-performance networking equipment capable of handling data at extremely fast speeds, often associated with cloud-based networking infrastructure. Let's break down the components and concepts involved in such devices within the context of CubeAI:

Router Basics:

  • A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers operate at Layer 3 (Network layer) of the OSI model.

  • Traditional routers use electronic circuits to process and forward data packets, but advancements in technology have led to the development of faster routers that utilize optical components for improved performance.
