What OSI layer do routers work on?
Layer 3 (Network).
What do routers do?
Connect multiple network devices & determine best traffic path using routing tables.
Breaks up broadcast domains
Connects one LAN to another LAN on a WAN
What OSI layer are switches?
Commonly Layer 2 (Data Link); examines headers for MAC addresses & forwards appropriately.
What’s the difference between a managed & an unmanaged switch?
An unmanaged switch does not allow for configuration & passes all data for a MAC address to its ports.
Managed switches allow for port configuration, traffic management, traffic monitoring as well as quality of service (QoS), redundancy, port mirroring, & VLANS.
Can a managed switch differentiate by VLAN?
Yes
