    the simple rule is a switch is a layer 2 and router layer 3
    But the past 10 years a switch is now both layer 2 and 3. I have 4 of them in my house :)

    Big more complicated though. Layer 3 switches exist which can work with IP addresses.
    Also, residential "routers" are actually a combination of a router, switch, wifi access point and sometimes a modem as well.

      layer 3 switch is anouther name for some of ISP routers. Why on Earth those are named "L3 switch" is beyond me. USB-IF shows people may make some very questionable naming schemes.

  • @TymexComputing
    @TymexComputing Před 5 měsíci

    Not necesserily the switched machines will share the single ip address of a router, they dont need to have a public address or they can have different or even share many. Simply the switch interchanges the link structures of information (called frames) and works on the second level of abstraction and routers are capable of interchanging 3rd level of abstraction called packets and protocols such as IP/IPv6/old IPX/ATM/some other globally interchangeable packeting protocol :). In simple way many users are using routers for a single IP address SNAT though but lets not take them opportunity to create something special :). dont use just routers - use linux :)

    And I’m picking this up along the way but I’m assuming that the “Mac” in MAC address stands for macro meaning more traffic. I’ve been told that Ap’s essentially hand out IP addresses but I’m struggling to clearly understand. Does the switch “decrypt” (for lack of a better term) packets that come in from an ap and just send a packet back to the ap to determine which device needed the information?
