Man, you're saving my exam 10 years after uploading the video!😄

Eli, I know this is an ancient video and you moved on to teaching different stuff loooong ago, but just want to express appreciation of your detailed approach. Your videos really stay in my mind, probably because you repeat what you said in few different ways and go into so much detail. Thanks a lot! Great help for someone with no technical background.

Eli, I'm working on my network+ cert; you've taught me more about switches than TWO semesters at my local college. That speaks volumes for your teaching abilities.

I'm in the process of retraining to become an IT systems technician. Somehow I understand your explanations way easier than my actual teachers explanation in class - I guess bilingual learning is not my thing (german XOR english). Your lessons are detailed and well structured while keeping it relaxed. You do iterations almost always where I need them so I don't have to skip back and forth =) Thank you very very much, sir!

Great to listen to Eli and benefit from his wisdom. He's very kind to be going through all the trouble to produce these lessons. He must have a teacher's heart.

Eli, I don't have enough words to thank you. The amount of information that you had shared in this video is enormous. GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!

Incredible! I came here getting an understanding of switches and routers as a newbie obtaining detailed info for my Comptia A+ and now I am hooked on your lectures. I am blown away with the knowledge. Thank you very much!

man you should be teaching my class. you would be my favorite teacher of all the time. great work eli you are the man!

simple is always the best way to learn ,without complication .I say GOOD JOB ELI

Ahh!! This is so awesome, I love it. I can understand everything at the maximum speed and got to learn this in 20ish minutes. Great content!! Thank you!

Eli, i love your videos man. You dont talk "DOWN" to people and you get the point across. You have great teaching ability. Thank you for your videos.

I know this is an older video but I have learned more from this guy in the 58 minutes watching this than I did from anything I have ever read on my own. fantastic lessons and looking forward to watching all the others. Thank you from someone who was pushed into handling my office network without having the background to do it!

8:10 Switches. osi level II Learns where each device is connected. (discovers the mac address) 15:30 Managed vs Unmanaged Switch Managed: allows extensive config. See below. 18:00 Speed 10, 100, 1000 Mb connections (should match the device speed) (managed) Set the hard code speed. If not, will do it automatically. 20:00 Duplex Half-duplex: listen or talks. (one signal at a time). Duplex: listen and talks (example: cellphone). 24:00 Backplain Before reaching another port, data goes through the backplain. It's like a highway. It needs to allow very high speed. 26:00 Trunk (for managed ports) Connect multiple switches. Uses fiber cable. 28:40 VLAN 31:00 PoE

best part is you look into the history of where it started.. great.. nice

You are incredible Eli. I'm currently interning at a company as an IT tech and even though I've heard about all these things and used some of them in practice; having you explain in baby steps what they do have been incredibly useful to me. You're creating jobs and helping us youngsters out. Thank you again, subbed!

great video. My 7 year old sat through 46 min of the video right next to me, 30 min past his bedtime. He said he is really a good teacher!!

I am impressed by the amount of information you have provided. This was very informative. Thank you.

this guy is really great I like his tutorials

I just found a solution to one of my problems with my network! I needed to separate the Access Point at my dad's restaurant so that the customers won't be able to see all the other devices in the network. Yeah, I have the same connection for the restaurant and our house so that our customers can have wifi for their devices. Thank you so much dude, keep this awesome work up! ~Valk.

I feel your enthusiasm for networking. Your good vibes are contagious. Thank you for posting! You sir are full of win.

Got a big Job where i have to deploy a huge 20 IP cameras Surveillance System wich involves using Managed Switches, an i have never even touched a Switch before, this video came in very helpful...thank you, i like the warm way you explain, very sintetic

"Hubs were completely dumb" this guy is awesome!!

Thank you SO much for your videos. I was referred by a friend who is a network engineer to watch your videos because I'm starting in the same field. You absolutely did not disappoint!

Eli, You're an incredible guy and I thank you, you have educated me faster and more effortlessly than anyone in any technical classroom could ever have! You lay it out once... and it's all crystal clear to me! YOU THE MAN!

"Hubs are bad, m'kay."

Fantastic! I was trying to learn about switches using CISCO's documents and getting no where. Your explanations are both easy to understand yet have incredible depth. Also your enthusiasm for the subject really shines through and makes the video way more interesting than the subject material would otherwise be. You have my deepest gratitude for your commitment to helping others learn and I wish you the very best in all that life has to offer.

Give her a walkie talkie..

I just started to watch some of your videos and you have been awesome. I am an intermediate technology person, and have heard about the different topics you talk about, but I was never able to put them together. They way you put your videos together are now making sense, and one of the examples is how you talk about the portions belong to the ISO Model which I never understood. I know some of these videos are kind of outdated, and new technology is out, but your videos give an outstanding base for understanding from the root tot he top of the tree. You are AWESOME and thank you so much for doing these videos.

Eli, like always, you have done and are doing a great job. You have heard this over and over. I like reading the comments when I am listing to your presentation. There is one very common thread; you are a great presenter and know how to teach your subject. Thank you again for spending so much of your time to teach us who are not so IT intelligent. I continue to view . . .

I work as an IT Field Technician in 2018 and thought this video was pretty recent.

0:04 - 0:05 That first sould scared the crap out of me!

Just want to go back to school and have a teacher like you. I think, i will clap my hands each time the class will end. Well done.

Man i wish my school had teachers like you! I bet you've heard this a million times, but seriously...You make it so easy to understand, not like my dusty old teachers. I tend to search your videos for subjects we've had in class and suddenly, everything is much clearer! thank you very much for these videos!! keep it up :)

Love how you reiterate at the end. Helps reinforce the concepts =)

can you assign a switchport to more than one vlan?

@JonMajorCCIE47884

Yes, depending on the vendor, we'd call that a trunk port (Cisco) or a tagged port (various other vendors).

@Douglas_Gillette

Traffic is considerd in a VLAN typically based on ports. Port A can be configured to be in VLAN 10. All traffic entering the port is considered to be in the logical broadcast domain of VLAN 10. Here is a diffrent method. Layer 2 switches/bridges can also consider traffic in a VLAN based on its physical MAC address. If traffic from MAC address 01-01-01-01-01-01 enters on Port A it will be considered in VLAN 10. Now move the end station with that MAC address to Port B on the same switch. The switch will still consider the traffic in VLAN 10.

Just wanted to let you know, I currently am getting my network+ cert but the problem with these companies cert processes is they expect you to know a lot of terms previously when they start to teach you. Your videos are really helping me understand and connect the dots..LIFE SAVOR!

You are a Teacher's teacher! Your lectures are easily understood and right on point!

45:09 that escalated quickly lol!

Dude.... there is a vowel following the lead E.. its EE-ther-net (e as in tea) not eth-ur-net (not eth like in ethel)

Eli, I just want to say that you are One of the Best Teachers on KZread..!!!

cant stop watching more of your videos. Really helpful. Many thanks man

Most switches operate at layer 2 so they won't be packets that are sent there will be frames. I know there are some layer 3 switches as well but...........

Great catch! Eli needs to use the proper terms. He also said that hubs cause broadcast storms. While the congestion may be great and the holdoff times may interfere, that's not a broadcast storm. They are caused by loops in the network. Spanning Tree Protocol is used to stop them. computer.howstuffworks.com/lan-switch13.htm

Also Eeeethernet uses Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access_with_collision_detection not CA/CD WHICH DOESN'T EXIST. CSMA/CA is a different protocol often used in wireless networking. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access_with_collision_avoidance. I can't listen any more to this guy if he is 'teaching' this incorrectly. I spent 25 years in networking and there is nothing wrong with cisco, but there is a lot of other high quality networking gear out there that I've worked with that costs a lot less and is just as good.

This is one of the best educational video I have ever seen ... Just after 1 hour of watching this video, my knowledge is at a whole different level now ... yes, I do understand switches a lot better now ... thanks a lot for making this video.

thank you Eli, I'm getting a revision I would have never got from anyone else, I studied Networking in 2009 and now it's 2016 I haven't got a job in Networking so listening to your lectures keeps me going.

Verry good video man ! This is the 2d video i've watched from you. Always very clear, lots of info, understandable ! Great work !!

Thank you for your videos. Now that I'm dealing with switches again and forgetting about STP and your video reminding me about it and how it works was great!

Thanks Eli - As usual and excellent tutorial. Thanks for taking the time to put this together

Eli your videos are very explicit i like that and they have helped me as well. Thank you, great job dude keep on.

Great tutorial! Thanks much Eli! I've been a system admin for years but never learned things like the internals of managed switches. Very enlightening!

Thanks so much Eli! You've produced sooo many so useful videos, great stuff!

Great video Eli, very informative! I've had to painfully familiarize with switching in my current job. I thought I had it all figured out, and then they went ahead and developed SDN switches ..

@jgrabener hmmm... it really depends. Generally all modern networking equipment is full duplex. Standard Surveillance cameras using coax cable may or may not be. The PTZ system actually uses a different cable and controller then the video feed for movement. There are PTZ protocols, such as Pelco D, that specify how PTZ cameras operate.

Eli Is so good at Computers...You really are a Computer Guy and I am sure you know how to get people instructed about all this stuffs...You make it as easier as possible...Keep it up...You are a star!!!

Thank you, That cleared up sooooo much for me. I now feel competent to purchase my first switch. Excellent teaching skills. I will watch your other videos and it is good to know I have you in my tool box.

perfect ...it went straight in to my ears and locked .... I have no doubts.

Thank you very much Eli the Computer guy for helping me with this tutorial.

Eli, You are one of the best teachers on You Tube. Thanks for all your great videos.

Man you are the best Computer guy on the world you are really know how to introduce IT stuff and how to make it simple to understand . Thank you so much

your totally amazing instructor that i ever met on youtube..all of ur vedio are amazing

Hey Eli, your videos are pretty helpful even for experienced people. Great work! Thanks for sharing...

Love your videos! And the details, aww man! Watch your videos all day :)

Great video. I do enjoy how giddy he gets every-time he grabs the big switch. haha

All these sophisticated systems in order to ensure user's comfort! Man, if I was the one who made these things I would just show users a message, at each communication attempt, that says "Make sure the other A-holes in the network are not uploading or downloading anything" and spare myself the trouble!

I came into this video thinking there was nothing more to learn about switches. I was incredibly wrong. Thank you for your video!

you are the only guy that explains everything. The good and bad. everyone else just says plug the hub in. I wanted to know if a hub has changes the ip. so I wouldn't affect my home network. And that's why I'm taking your classes. Thanks Eli!

Your videos are exactly what I have been looking for to learn about networking. Thanks a lot

This information was very well put. Nice job Eli.

Eli you are an amazing instructor. watching your videos make my life easy studying computer network at College .keep the hard work up . In hadeth we have this " Stand up for the teacher and glorify him....He could have been a messenger. "

Hi Eli! You are a god send man! Your way of explaining things makes everything simple and easy to grasp! Where were you all these days? I recently found you and since then my knowledge on IT is increasing! Thanx for helping people like me Eli! God bless you! Keep up the good work!

Great videos man! I am seriously nerding out on all this stuff!

Eli you are the best teacher ever i have encounter in my life .Hoping to get more PHP tutorials and m very excited to get more tutorials

GREAT WORK u have helped a lot of people with these lessons & I'm one of them . I hope u continue uploading amazing videoes like this . LOV U

Thank you Eli! Your videos are always helpful.

The simple explications and definitions in which this guy goes into has been extremely helpful, and has helped very much within my BLANS report for college. Thanks very much !!!

Thank you so much

Even though this video is old, you have earned my sub with it.

You provided some cool technical concepts about switches :) thanks.

I love this guy, he makes me want to learn more!

Eli- awesome as usual. Don't know what I would do without your great videos.

Another great overview that pulls it all together

This was reliable well explained smooth presentation! Thank you.

I'm learning network and security course. This video helps me a lot in understanding switchers and HUB. Brilliant tutor

thanks for the switch training it helped alot. please keep up the great job...

thanks a lot! I have seen three of your videos, all of them do great help to me!

Your videos are really great, easy to understand,informative,thanks
