What is Routing?
Routing is the process of selecting a path for traffic to travel across one or more networks from source to destination. Routers perform this function by examining the destination IP address of each packet and consulting a routing table to determine where to forward it next. Routing can be done statically, where paths are manually configured, or dynamically, where routers automatically discover and update paths using routing protocols.
