what is the difference between router and a device that does packet forwarding between its interfaces.
example: can a plain NT box with two network cards (with IP forwarding enabled) be called as a router ? or it is just doing packet forwarding. in my understanding even routers like say cisco router does such packet forwarding though it can make a decision on such packet forwarding based on a routing protocol. would that be correct to say ? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
