Routing and Switching

This module will not provide a "deep dive" into routing or switching--other, dedicated, courses do that. This module will give you a brief introduction to routing and switching. To familiarize yourself with some routing and switching basics, please read What is Routing and Switching?. Some takeaways:

• Hubs are a broadcast domain
• Switches operate at layer two in the OSI model
  • Some switches also perform routing at layer three--we commonly refer to them as layer 3 switches
  • Some switches provide a web-GUI or a CLI management interface and we refer to them as managed switches
    • Managed switches allow administrators to configure individual ports for VLANs, port mirroring, etc., for example
    • Unmanaged switches (sometimes called dumb switches) do not, typically, provide a web-GUI or a CLI
