In this approach, there is a dedicated route between sender and receiver. Before the link
is determined in the circuit switching approach, the dedicated route will continue until the
connection is eliminated.
Message Switching
Message Switching is an approach in which a message is sent as a whole unit and routed by the
intermediate hub at which it is saved and delivered. There is no installation of a dedicated route
between the sender and receiver in the message switching approach.
The destination location is added to the message. It supports flexible routing as the message is
routed by the intermediate hub based on its data.
Packet Switching
Packet switching is a switching approach in which the message is transmitted in one go, but it is
split into the lower item, and they are sent separately. The message divided into lower elements
are called packets, and these packets are provided with a specific number to recognize their series
at the receiving end.
Data is sent in various units of variable length of structures which are known as packets in a
packet-switched network. Each packet includes some data in its headers, including source
address, destination address and order number.
