Active Router Definition: An active router refers to a network device that is currently functioning and processing data packets to enable communication between different network devices.
Active Router refers to a network router that is currently functioning and routing traffic. It actively forwards data packets based on routing tables and makes decisions on the most efficient paths for data transmission within a network. It plays a vital role in ensuring the continuous and proper flow of network traffic between different devices and subnetworks.
