A description of the network’s operation at a more or less deep level will take more than one page. Hundreds of books, publications, and FAQs have been written about this. In this material I will try to explain the operation of the network at the level that is necessary to build and configure a home network. Naturally, many points will simply be missed or greatly simplified. The operation of the network is described in more detail in Olifer's books, as well as in the first and second semesters of CCNA. If you have questions (and you will definitely have them), then ask them in this section of the forum.
