Networking - concepts and capabilities of Routing Table

Explain the concepts and capabilities of Routing Table.

The information about the data packets route over an Internet Protocol will be determined in a table called routing table as a set of rules. Routers and switches use routing tables.

Routing tables contain information for the purpose of forwarding a packet on a path towards its destination. The packet contains the origin and destination information. A network device examines the packets and matches it to the routing table where the destination is available. Then the table provides the device for transmitting the packet to the next hop across the network.
