Routing & Switching
Routing is the act of moving information across an internetwork from a source to a destination. Routing involves two basic activities: determining optimal routing paths and transporting packets through an internetwork (packet switching). Although packet switching is relatively straightforward, path determination can be very complex. Routing protocols use metrics (i.e., path length, reliability, delay, bandwidth, load, and communication cost) to evaluate what path will be the best for a packet to travel.
Proper design and configuration of routers and switches is a vital part for an effective network. Smart Solutions’ Engineers are certified by the industry’s major networking manufacturers. With an emphasis on reliability and security, Smart Solutions’ Engineers carefully work with you and the manufacturer to design the right network configuration. We focus on your organization and the processes you perform — taking everything into account — from existing equipment and applications, to growth planning and future system needs.
Smart Solutions installs, configures, and tests network hardware, cabling, and software applications. And when it’s time to “hand over the keys”, we provide user orientation and training. Once your network is installed, support and maintenance are critical to ensure faultless operations.
