      What Type Of Network Device Keeps A Table Of The Mac Addresses Of The Devices Connected To It?

      The switch mac address will be able to keep the mac address of the devices connected to it. Today, let us discuss the switch networking device and its types in detail. We also learn what is mac address is and how the switch keeps a table of the mac address in detail.

      Normally, the switch is a networking device. We have different types of switches like net gear 5 port switch, cisco enterprise-level switches.

      We can connect computers to the switches by using ethernet cables. We can also connect by using the rj45 cables.

      Now, let us see how the switch works, a switch is like a different kind of hub, we already know what the tern hub means. A hub is like a networking device in which all the data can be sent and received by the older device.

      We can also be sent to every port that is present on the switch. The switch is a bit more clever, it can send the data only to the device which can actually want it.

      Let us take an example to understand how the switch works. Let say we have a PC A, PC B, PC C, PC D. All these are connected to each other by plucking it into one in each of the port.

      Suppose if PC A wants to send the data to PC D, initially the switch doesn’t know where the PC is D. But it tries to make up a device that is connected out of the ports. Now directly the PC D is going to reply to PC A.

      The switch will be able to make a map that the PC A is connected to port 1 and the PC D connected to port 2. Now all the communications between PC A and PC D will only go between these two ports. And it will not have to be sent out of the other ports to PC B.

      Now, let us discuss the layer 2 switch and its command features in detail. The switch can able to separates the collision domains. For suppose, when computer A wants to communicate with computer B or Computer A wants to send a frame to computer B, here only computer B can get the frames, all the communications in a local switches network is called as the one to one conversation. The switch can able to give a full bandwidth network for every conversation.

      The switch can able to create a broadcast domain, the broadcast domain is nothing but the switched local network. The switch can forward the frames based on its mac address that is specified based on the mac address table.

      The mac address table is also called the source address table. Normally, we define the mac-address-table only to determine the traffic on the local area networks. The switch will copy the source mac address and it will build the table to all the devices that are connected through it.
