Computing researchers at Rochester Institute of Technology have developed a new loop-avoidance protocol that solves a key challenge faced in switched networks, including many of the data center ...

Thanks for STP. but one thing pops in my mind how does it stops a network loop in this scenario. A frame (source pc0/1, destination pc2/1) just entered my Switch(SW1) and then router(R1) then ...

As computer networks get bigger, it becomes increasingly hard to keep track of the flow of data over this network. How do you route data, making sure that the data is spread to all parts of the ...

The big question we’ve been looking at for the last few weeks is the value of a 2 switch lab topology for prepping Spanning Tree topics for both CCNA and CCNP. I’ll conclude the discussion this week, ...
