READ DESCRIPTION

Since Easter Sunday, I came home from work to find the my partner at the time took my two kids away ages 3 and 2 and for months now have been in family court, as hard as this experience has been, I have learnt a lot and learnt who you can trust or not, on a good note I have been lucky with the courts and what i have managed to get with my kids

I’ve had to shut down the home lab and office pack up and move out of the house and find somewhere else to live until the house is sold, so that’s why all my system are off and not running, i am not sure how long it will be like this but once I can get a place of my own my home lab will be up and running again like it once was!

Just wanted to do a recap of the homelab I once had at my house, I am keen and excited to be able to get my lab up and running once this court custody and property case can be over and done with

DADS fight for what is yours, especially when it is your kids, they deserve to be in your life, they are not only the mothers, they forget that and for sure lies apon lies will be told but at the end of it, they get exposed

What is a network switch? How does a network switch work?
This video covers everything from how a switch works to what it does and how!

Welcome to home lab networking #101
This is a networking series were we go and explore and truly understand how networking actually works to networking devices and what they do and much more!
This is networking 101, so we are treated each video as if the viewer is brand new to home lab’s and networking and starting from the beginning.

I am not an expert, but I do know a little bit and what to share what I know in the networking world!

Networking #101
What is a switch?
In networking, a switch is a device used to connect multiple devices together in a Local Area Network (LAN) and allows them to communicate with each other.

A switch operates at the Data Link Layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model, which is responsible for providing a reliable and efficient communication between devices within a network.

When a device wants to send data to another device on the same network, it sends a data frame containing the destination address of the receiving device to the switch. The switch checks its internal address table to determine which port the destination device is connected to, and then forwards the data frame only to that port. This process is called “switching”, and it is what makes a switch more efficient than a hub, which sends data to all connected devices, regardless of whether they are the intended recipient or not.

Switches can be either managed or unmanaged. Managed switches allow administrators to configure and monitor the switch, while unmanaged switches are plug-and-play devices that require no configuration.

Overall, a switch is a fundamental component of modern networking, allowing for fast and efficient communication between devices within a network.
