<p>network links are shared by packets from multiple competing communication sessions, resulting in the loss of the quality of service guarantees that are provided by circuit switching.</p>

<p>Packet switching can be based on <a href="page.php?w=connection-oriented_communication">connection-oriented communication</a> or <a href="page.php?w=connectionless_communication">connectionless communication</a>. That is, based on virtual circuits or datagrams.</p>
