What's a SWITCH | Switches EXPLAINED 👉 Port Security & Trunking CCNA 200-310 and Network+ Tutorial

Let's talk about the topics of switches, in this video I will be talking about what's a switch, what switches do, and I will explained in details many of the advantages and what they do through storytelling, this will help you to process and understand the information in a way that will help you to remember and recall the information.

I know this video will help you A LOT if you are studying and in the process to get your CompTIA Network+ and Cisco CCNA 200-301 certifications.

I will be talking about MAC Addresses, Layer 2 devices, not only switches, and obviously many features that Cisco switches do and what really are capable of doing when you know how to manage, configure them.

Enjoy.

A switch is used to network multiple computers together. Switches made for the consumer market are typically small, flat boxes with 4 to 8 Ethernet ports. These ports can connect to computers, cable or DSL modems, and other switches. High-end switches can have more than 50 ports and often are rack mounted.

Switches are more advanced than hubs and less capable than routers. Unlike hubs, switches can limit the traffic to and from each port so that each device connected to the switch has a sufficient amount of bandwidth. For this reason, you can think of a switch as a "smart hub." However, switches don't provide the firewall and logging capabilities that routers do. Routers can often be configured by software (typically via a Web interface), while switches only work the way the hardware was designed.

How do I become a monthly member so I can learn all of this? Will this give me CCNA or CCNP level knowledge? When you are taking students please let me know, and if you are doing a live stream I would love to ask some questions Jorge!
