Question

What limitations of a bridge are overcome by a router?

Answer 1

Best path between locations for a message of a bridge are overcome by a router

Explanation:

• With an increase in both the number of segments in an organization's network and the need to make connections across networks, bridges become less effective than routers.
• A router differs from a bridge because it operates at the network layer of the network model. In a complex network with multiple alternate paths between locations, the primary task of the routers on a network is to use the destination address of a message to determine the best path between locations for a message to follow.
