Explain the store and forward paradigm.

What will be an ideal response?


To perform store and forward processing, a packet switch buffers packets in memory. The
store operation occurs when a packet arrives: I/O hardware inside the packet switch places a copy of
the packet in memory. The forward operation occurs once a packet has arrived and is waiting in
memory. The processor examines the packet, determines its destination, and sends the packet over
the I/O interface that leads to the destination.
