Features: The content of this book can be summarized into two parts: basic knowledge and basic applications. The basic knowledge section primarily introduces knowledge related to switched networks, including the basics of switched local area networks (LANs), the setup of switched LANs, the OSI reference model and TCP/IP model, switches and bridges, the characteristics and applications of network segmentation, and the deployment of switches. The basic applications section takes small and medium-sized network environments as the context. It first focuses on Cisco products, introducing the installation and basic configuration methods of Cisco Catalyst switches, including the basic operations of Cisco Catalyst switches, the concept and application of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), the concept and implementation of VLANs, and Layer 3 switching and applications based on Cisco Catalyst Layer 3 switches. Additionally, based on current domestic applications, the operation methods of Huawei and Sisense switches are also introduced.
