_____________________
requires a dedicated physical connection between the sending and receiving devices.

• circuit switching 
• Packet switching
• frame relay switching 
• virtual circuit switching 

____________________
Offers the capability of storing messages temporarily to reduce network congestion

• Packet switching
• Circuit switching 
• Frame relay switching
• Datagram circuit switching

In this lesson we dealt with ______ switching method(s).

• one
• three
• four
• five

In ________________
the sending device is responsible for choosing the best path.

• Packet switching 
• Circuit switching 
• Frame switching
• Datagram circuit switching

In ________________
a logical connection is established between the source and the destination device.

• Virtual-circuit packet switching
• Datagram packet switching:
• Circuit Switching
• Frame switching

The packets in _______________________
are independently sent, meaning that they can take different paths through the network to reach their intended destination

• Virtual-circuit packet switching
• Datagram packet switching:
• Circuit Switching
• Frame switching

Packet-switched networks can also be divided into
