Átirányító

Átirányító is a Hungarian term that translates to "redirect" or "forwarding" in English. It commonly refers to the process of directing something, often communication or traffic, from its original destination to an alternative one.

In the context of telecommunications, an átirányító is a feature that allows a user to automatically forward incoming calls to another phone number. This can be useful if the user is unavailable at their primary number, such as when they are in a meeting or have switched to a different device. The setup for call forwarding typically involves accessing the phone's settings or dialing specific codes provided by the network operator.

The term can also be applied to website redirection. When a website's URL changes, an átirányító is implemented to send users and search engine crawlers from the old address to the new one. This ensures a seamless transition for visitors and helps maintain search engine rankings. Various types of redirects exist, such as temporary (302) and permanent (301), each conveying a different message about the longevity of the move.

Beyond these technical uses, átirányító can be used more broadly to describe any act of diverting or rerouting. This could include redirecting a physical path, a line of inquiry, or even resources. The core concept remains the redirection of flow from an intended or initial course to a different one.
