Thank you for the plain and simple description. Couldn't be easier when you get basic concepts explained in a clear and demystified manner. I really appreciate it.
Thank you for explaining how switches work, just earlier I had no clue what they were but after watching this video, I have a grasp on what they do, thanks again
I actually can’t believe I’m 3 years late. I absolutely love your terminology. Thank you kindly for you explanation and your time in making this video so people like me and learn. Much appreciated 🙏🏻. I certainly have to subscribe to your wonderful channel. Thank you once again.
Hi Mr, I know I’m a couple of years late but…thank you kindly for your direct and clear explanation. You’re a superstar without realising it. Thank you kindly for your time in making this video.
Hi Roger, just saw your video and I must say it was very simple but to the point explanation. Glad I saw your video. Just subscribed your channel and will go through other videos as well. Really appreciate your efforts and time. 👍
So I have been using unmanaged switches since 2005 on my SOHO network. I've always idly wondered the kinds of options that "managed" switches offer. Your video helped me to understand the difference. As curious as I am, I think I'll continue to use unmanaged switches. LOL, sometimes it's better to have fewer choices.
Great simple video. I am trying to learn Networking but im struggling to find a good starting point that isn't too abstracted Any ideas on how to start "from scratch" to get a deeper understanding?
I have a question: I just want to plug one computer with another through my unmanaged switch, however, they can't see each other. Is that because I didn't plug the switch with the router? Do the switch and the router need to be plugged together in order to one computer see the other? Plugging both computers into the switch isn't enough for them to see each other?
It depends what the computers are configured as? If the network cards are set to DHCP and need to get an address from somewhere you also need your router in there as well, if you just want them to see each other and that's it then assign PC1 and IP address of 10.0.0.1/24 and PC2 10.0.0.2/24 - just depends what you want to do and what you mean by see each other?
Thanks Roger for simple explanation of Switch. I have a question about how Switch and Java programming works together. if you give a simple example it will be great.
A1 to the point. No going on about 20 other things at once just the basics. THANKS now I understand in 5 mins. Excellent thanks. I guess to tell the swicth what to do you would do that though a computer. It would be interesting to see you do a basic set up of a CCTV system with out a swicth and one using a swicth for extra cameras. And maybe linking it to a Phone App. Maybe like HikVison. A1 information thanks 👍
Sometimes it is good to revisit the core concepts. I recently did some reading about native vlans, tagging and spanning tree just to refresh. Thanks Roger!
Very good, I am looking to know more about networking. right now its just so that my PC and my girlfriends Pc can send game installs from steam quicker because we are limited by our 50mbs plugs when both ports support gigabite and are both in the same room. this seems like the best option for me. Thank you. Also those who aren't aware you can transfer games form one PC to another on the same network, you do need to set it up in steam settings!
If you connect a cable from your router into a switch and all the ports are in the same vlan and all the devices on your network are on the same subnet as your internet router that will provide internet to all devices, they will typically get a DHCP address from the router
if it decides that which device is connected to which port, and send data for that device only thru that port, what happens if we interchange the ports connected to devices, how will it then work
What happens if PC D is swapped for PC C? How does the switch come to know that it should be sending the information to a different port? I am just learning all of this stuff now, and I assume that the switch is dependent on information being sent TCP - are all the computers informing the switch that the information is irrelevant or are they just discarding it?
All devices have a different ip address. Most of the devices will have a static ip set anyway so even if the port changes, the ip stays the same. If let's say the ip changes, you'll need to reconfigure whatever you were doing/sending so that it stars working again.
Good question, a switch can also be a router - this is called a Layer 3 switch, it allows you to route traffic between different networks. A router typically has only a few ports where a switch can have a lot more normally 48 or you can stack switches to have up to 400+ ports. So you use a switch when you need more ports and a router when you need to route between networks, like your home broadband router, but the switch if it supports it could also be a router
Haha randomly came across this video and saw my old comment lol, I've had a Switch for over a year and it's been great. I have 35mb download speed and its hardly ever lagged because it gives my main device priority

Thank you so much. I was specifically trying to know how the switches know where data should go . Thank you for the amazing explanation
good video, well explained for beginniners studying IT/Networking.
thanks mate, i dont know why I struggled to make the difference between switch and router. have a nice one.
Thank you for a great explanation. Could not get my head around the difference between a switch and a hub. Simple and easy explanation.
awesome explanation. im a newbie in networking, hope to learn more basics before moving on more advanced networking
My English is basic but i understand all do you told . Gracias Amigo , Good video
Hi Mr, I know I’m a couple of years late but…thank you kindly for your direct and clear explanation. You’re a superstar without realising it. Thank you kindly for your time in making this video.
I really need this for my presentation and you make it’s so simple to understand. Thank you ❤
Why can't RUclipsrs be this straight ❤
Thank you for posting this! Great use of terminology and easy to understand. As an IT student, you are a lifesaver lol.
Simple and clear, thank you sir
I did not under the difference between switch and a hub, Thank you for explaining how switches work,
A true good knowledge for beginners

*Thank you; Merry Christmas.*
thanks for the lesson Loki
great way of explaining ... keep going . thank you so much

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for both of you! Cheers!
@@RogerPerkin thank you, I was able to get there figured out last year. The Ethernet cable was wired wrongly. 🤣
Why does port #5 look different in there? @0:12 🤔
Thanks Roger for simple explanation of Switch. I have a question about how Switch and Java programming works together. if you give a simple example it will be great.
nice explanation
Very simple and good one.

A1 information thanks 👍
thanks very well explained :)
Great video and very clear explanation.
It’s nice to see another Roger. I don’t see many out there .
This was informative, thank you for clearing that up .

Thanks Roger!
Online class brought me here...

2:20 isn't the title should be "HUB send it to all ports" ?
Actually really helped. Thanks❄
Good video about swiches
Thank you!I was not unsertdanding it.Now I get it.
thank you for explaining!
Awesome video, thanks Roger…Go Forrest🌳
This helped a lot thank you
what if you plug internet cabble coming from the router does that distribute wifi connection to all of the device that is connected to the switch?
If you connect a cable from your router into a switch and all the ports are in the same vlan and all the devices on your network are on the same subnet as your internet router that will provide internet to all devices, they will typically get a DHCP address from the router
Thank you, Roger!!!
thank you for the video.
Can i ask do you need to attach a switch to a wall Ethernet outlet ?.... Has my wall outlets dont work
if it decides that which device is connected to which port, and send data for that device only thru that port, what happens if we interchange the ports connected to devices, how will it then work
you sound exactly like Roy from IT crowd :)
want more videos on networking as a complete course if possible
and thank you
How can you construct it using cartoon or card board
Excellent video.
Thanks, such a great explanation!
There is a question with me !
If switch cant recognize the destination, what happense to the Data that is in the switch ?
What happens if PC D is swapped for PC C? How does the switch come to know that it should be sending the information to a different port? I am just learning all of this stuff now, and I assume that the switch is dependent on information being sent TCP - are all the computers informing the switch that the information is irrelevant or are they just discarding it?
All devices have a different ip address. Most of the devices will have a static ip set anyway so even if the port changes, the ip stays the same. If let's say the ip changes, you'll need to reconfigure whatever you were doing/sending so that it stars working again.
Switch has a Mac address table that save all devices's mac address when they connect to switch so it can transfer data correctly.
Very clear thank you!
Very nice !
Very good video well explained.
well explained
Great video! Is it me or is the volume is a little low?
Thank you! ❤
thanx sir 🙏 i saw my google switch work profile which i never turn on i think some body very interested on me
Superb 😍😍😍
Ip switch and network switch is the same?
Do you know what the difference is between a T3 and T5 switch ?
Very nice
Thanks 🙏🙏🙏
Why do you need this instead of a router?

@@RogerPerkin Thanks!
What happens if the connections get swapped at the switch?
nice video
Thank you
Haha randomly came across this video and saw my old comment lol, I've had a Switch for over a year and it's been great. I have 35mb download speed and its hardly ever lagged because it gives my main device priority
Switch have only Mac address ?
thanks
Eh I need to buy a couple of switches for testing.
Thanks
being forced to watch this in class rn
hi ms g's class 4
What are the problems in Switch?
thank u
