Distinguish between addressing, routing, and flow control.

What will be an ideal response?


Addressing is the method used to specify an endpoint destination. Routing is the process
by which the next intelligent node is reached on the path to a final destination. Flow control
is the process by which a sender can adjust its transmission rate so that it will not exceed
the capacity of the receiver; the receiver cooperates in this process by keeping the sender
informed of its readiness to accept data.
