Router on a stick
Router on a Stick: Understanding and Configuring This Network Configuration A “router on a stick” is a network configuration where a single router is used to route traffic between multiple VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks). This configuration is often used in smaller networks where a full-fledged Layer 3 switch is not available or is not […]
Spanning Tree
Types of STP There are several different types of STP that are commonly used, including: IEEE 802.1D STP: This is the original spanning tree protocol, developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). It is still widely used today, but has some limitations, such as slow convergence times and a lack of support […]
