Switches operate at the data link layer and sometimes the network layer of the OSI Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. / A network switch is a computer networking device that connects devices together on a computer network, by using a form of packet switching to forward data to the destination device. A network switch is considered more advanced than a (repeater) hub because a switch will only forward a message to one or multiple devices that need to receive it, rather than broadcasting the same message out of each of its ports. / The rules for exchanging data between computers. |
