07 Ethernet Switching Basics
Data transmission on networks must comply with certain standards. Ethernet protocols define how data frames are transmitted over an Ethernet network. Understanding Ethernet protocols is the basis for fully understanding communication at the data link layer. An Ethernet switch is the main device for implementing data link layer communication. It is essential to understand how an Ethernet switch works. This note describes the concepts related to Ethernet protocols, MAC address types, and working process and mechanism of Layer 2 switches.
