Routing is the process of finding a path for data to pass from source to destination using routers. The data link layer checks messages are sent to the right device and frames data. A window refers to the number of segments allowed to be sent before an acknowledgement. Store-and-forward switching is used in Cisco Catalyst 5000 switches. Bridges filter networks without changing their size. BootP is used by diskless workstations to determine IP addresses. VLANs create collision domains by functions and protocols, not just location. Subnetting divides large networks into smaller identified subnets.
