virtual circuit
     
         a connection-oriented network service which
        is implemented on top of a network which may be either
        connection-oriented or connectionless packet switching.
     
        the term "switched virtual circuit" was coined needlessly to
        distinguish an ordinary virtual circuit from a permanent
        virtual circuit.  one of the perpetrators of this confusion
        appears to be "networking essentials", 1996, microsoft press,
        isbn 1-55615-806-8, a book aimed at people preparing for the
        mcse exam on lans and wans.
     
        not to be confused with switched virtual connection.
