By configuring EtherChannel, we bundle multiple physical connections between two or more Cisco switches into one logical link. This allows for increased bandwidth, improved fault tolerance, and load balancing across the aggregated links. EtherChannel also provides a more efficient use of available network resources and simplifies the management of network connections between switches. In a conventional network where… Read More »
What are the Types of STP? The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) standards are a set of network protocols that ensure a loop-free topology for Ethernet networks.The basic idea behind STP is to prevent network disruptions caused by loops, which are common in Ethernet networks. STP works by organizing the network’s switches into a hierarchy and blocking certain redundant… Read More »
What Is a VLAN? VLAN (Virtual Local Network) is a logically separate IP subnetwork that allows multiple IP networks and subnets to exist on the same-switched network. VLAN is a logical broadcast domain that can span multiple physical LAN segments. It is a modern way administrators configure switches into virtual local-area networks (VLANs) to improve network performance by… Read More »
How Is Root Port Selected on a Switch? The concept of a “Root Port” falls in the operational area of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) , particularly in Ethernet networks using switches. STP is a network protocol designed to prevent loop formation in networks with redundant paths. Within the context of STP, the Root Port plays a crucial… Read More »
What Is Wireless Broadband? Broadband technology is simply the term given to high-speed Internet access. Broadband replaced the analog modem. A broadband connection can be delivered in several different methods, ADSL, Cable, and satellite. With a broadband router, you can connect two or more computers to share an Internet connection at home or office. Broadband uses a technology… Read More »
