Virtual-circuit networks are designed to offer a balance between the reliability and predictability of circuit-switched networks and the flexibility and efficiency of datagram networks. They establish a logical path or virtual circuit for the duration of a session, which mimics the behavior of circuit-switched networks but uses the packet-switching technique similar to datagram networks for data transmission.
