Clients and servers—how services such as e-mail and web pages connect using networks.
IP addresses—how devices on a network can be found. Network hubs, switches and cables—
the hardware building blocks of any network.
Switches
Switches are the foundation of most business networks. A switch acts as a controller,
connecting computers, printers, and servers to a network in a building or a campus.
