Detailed explanation-1: -In routing, messages are forwarded to the router with the lowest cost. What is it meant by cost? Least amount of money.
Detailed explanation-2: -When the router receives a packet, it looks at its IP header. The most important field is the destination IP address, which tells the router where the packet wants to end up.
Detailed explanation-3: -Routing is the process by which systems decide where to send a packet. Routing protocols on a system “discover” the other systems on the local network.
