Intradomain routing protocols Two processes, routing and forwarding, are needed to deliver IP packets over a network. The routing process determines and chooses the path to a destination based on metrics such as number of hops, delay, and throughput. The forwarding process does the actual insertion of the IP packet into a frame and forwards the frame to the next hop.
