A switch in a network is a device that connects multiple devices within a local area network (LAN) and uses MAC addresses to forward data only to the intended recipient. It operates at the data link layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model, allowing efficient communication by creating a dedicated channel between devices. Switches help reduce network congestion and improve overall performance by managing data traffic intelligently. Additionally, managed switches can provide advanced features such as VLAN support, traffic monitoring, and enhanced security.
