Question

The main path of the Internet along which data travels the fastest is known as the Internet ________. Group of answer choices

Answer 1

Answer:

Internet backbone

Explanation:

The internet backbone is made up of multiple networks from multiple users. It is the central data route between interconnected computer networks and core routers of the Internet on the large scale. This backbone does not have a unique central control or policies, and is hosted by big government, research and academic institutes, commercial organisations etc. Although it is governed by the principle of settlement-free peering, in which providers privately negotiate interconnection agreements, moves have been made to ensure that no particular internet backbone provider grows too large as to dominate the backbone market.
