Network Switches connect network segments or network devices. They receive a message from any device connected to it and then transmit the message only to the device for which the message was meant.
Using a switch splits a larger collision domain into smaller ones in order to reduce collision probability and improve overall throughput. They also inspect data packets as they are received, determining the source and destination device of each packet, and forwarding them appropriately. By delivering messages only to the connected device intended, a network switch conserves network bandwidth and improves performance.
Switches also minimize network downtime as they add failover redundancy to networks. This is done through Protocols like Alpha-Ring topology, Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP), Multiple Spanning Tree (MSTP), and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) which allow for failover links and interoperability over multiple vendor switches. In addition, features like the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) enable the user to add more bandwidth for high flow-rate applications without changing the cable type on the switch.
These features cut operational expenses because switches enable you to remotely access and monitor your network, removing the need to keep staff onsite 24/7 at remote locations just to monitor network health.
Increased security is also guaranteed. With features such as 802.1X Port-Based Network Access Control (PNAC) and PoE (Power over Ethernet) port control, you can control switch port access for each network user individually. Switch enables the creation of Access Control Lists (ACLs), which can control the specific network traffic of users by using simple “allow” and “deny” statements. Additionally, switches let you view the MAC address table to see what devices and users have accessed your device. This way, you can take steps to prevent unauthorized access.
