Abstract: Method of switching packets in a transmission medium comprising multiple stations which are connected using different links, which is characterized by the establishment of different links (9, 10, 11 and 12) in the same or different media, with different communication characteristics in a single medium, and by a frame switching process associated with links. Thanks to this it is possible to send frames from one set of equipment (2) connected to a transmission medium (1) to any other connected to that same medium (4, 5, 6 and 7), even though there is no direct link between them, with all the processing being carried out in level 2 of the OSI model.
