This video will illustrate everything that happens to describe how packets travel through a network. Specifically, we will look at every step to get a packet from a host, through a switch, then a router, then another switch, and finally to another host.

This video is the series finale to an article series on Practical Networking.net that explains everything you need to know to understand how data moves through the Internet. You can read the Packet Traveling series here:
