Edge Router

An Edge Router is a specialized device that connects a local network, like your business or home, to the broader internet. It manages data traffic by directing information between your internal devices and external networks, ensuring data reaches the right destination efficiently. Positioned at the network's edge, it helps control security, such as filtering unwanted traffic, and ensures reliable internet access. Essentially, it acts as a gateway, coordinating communication between your local environment and the outside world, enabling smooth, secure connectivity.
