Forwards a packet to the best next hop.
The main functions of a router are; packet switching, packet forwarding and packet filtering. When a host creates an IP packet, it uses its source IP and assigns a destination IP to the packet. Routers on the path, route the packet based on this destination IP, however they never modify it. A router will never forward a packet to any available interface, either to the outgoing interface stated on the routing table or it will discard it.
