The Role of Core Switches in Network Management
They stand at the network's heart, speeding up data transfer across different segments. A core switch is a high-capacity, high-performance Layer 3 switch positioned at the physical backbone of an enterprise network. Engineered to aggregate massive volumes of data from distribution switches, it provides ultra-low latency and maximum throughput to ensure uninterrupted routing and packet. They operate at the data link layer (Layer 2) or the network layer (Layer 3) of the OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) model, facilitating the communication of devices on a network by receiving, processing.
