router to router addressing? was created by truesdq
if a router(A) will send packet to another router (
... as the packet has source and destination ip addresses and the router(
destination physical address as well, So my Question is that either router B physical address is enough for packet to reach from router A or there must be ip address of the Router B as well ? :idea:

If router B is connected to the same segment as router A, then you can use only the MAC, but thats not the way things are usually done.
MAC address sending a receiving only works within the local subnet. Once you pass a layer 3 device (like router), packets get re-encapsulated with deferent source/destination MAC addresses.

thanks S()L0
that's clear to me mac address encapsulation.
and what about ip address/es of the router to router when packets travel among them?
