|
|
|
Each packet is sent down the fastest route at that time
|
|
|
None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Packet switching is more efficient than circuit switching because it ensures that more of the bandwidth of all cables are fully utilized. As it makes better use of resources, packet switching is more likely to reduce congestion than circuit switching.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each time one device sends a file to another, it breaks the file down into packets so that it can determine the most efficient route for sending the data across the network at that time. The network devices can then route the packets to the destination where the receiving device reassembles them for use.
