A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the traffic directing functions between networks and on the global Internet. Data sent through a network, such as a web page or email, is in the form of data packets. A packet is typically forwarded from one router to another router through the networks that constitute an internetwork until it reaches its destination node. |

- ARP kind of spans between them - arp was what was needed/created when IP was created in order to graft ip onto the ethernet/mac address system which came before it.
- ARP packers are always constrained to a single LAN
