Which network is a packet switching network?

A Ring network
B LAN
C Star network
D EuroNET
E None of the above

Correct Answer: Ring network

Ring network is a packet switching network.

A Ring Network is a network topology in which each node connects to exactly two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node – a ring. Data travels from node to node, with each node along the way handling every packet.

A Packet Switched Network (PSN) is a type of computer communications network that groups and sends data in the form of small packets. It enables the sending of data or network packets between a source and destination node over a network channel that is shared between multiple users and/or applications.
