Summary
Switches forward traffic using store and forward or cut-through
techniques
Basic security features should be applied to switches
A VLAN is a way to group hosts on the same logical network even
though they may be physically separated
Frame tagging allows a switch to identify the source VLAN of an
Ethernet frame.
A Layer 3 device is needed to move traffic between different
VLANs.
Subinterfaces allow router interfaces to support multiple VLANs.
VLAN Trunking Protocol provides centralized control, distribution
and maintenance of VLANs.
