I've always been a fan of Jeremy. His courses were probably 80% of my study for CCNA. Really glad to see some in depth training on youtube free for everyone!
Love how, on the slide with the small unmanaged soho switches, you have a 5 port managed switch as well :) (yes the D-link, wich btw has STP active as default) Oh and Cisco SG/SF-100/110 are all unmanaged, as afair no STP.
This is great for me to show my new techs and my boss to help them understand basic switching and why we need managed gear... 4years into my role and I'm still finding switches popping up (most of which not in use, thankfully), but port security can do wonders to find these if they ever do show up! :P
13:25 Isn't there a setting that checks the traffic on each port, and if it goes above a certain threshold for a given period of time, it blocks or restricts traffic on that port?
We use the small switches at my work place, people really do kick them to the side and accidentally unplug them or switch cables around. Constantly have to check up on the users who have them lol
can you clarify if as long as nobody tries to aggregate two links between one of those small switches and some device it's fine to use them? most of devices have only one ethernet port anyway
I have never had such “nightmares” with cheap switches. Not even a bad power supply or bad port. (This is across 10+ years). If you know anything, the hardware is off the shelf so they all have similar components. By now, all major vendors (Linksys, Netgear, etc.), have it down and the switches, both managed and unmanaged, work WELL!! This will say more about the people installing/configuring them, than the equipment itself.
CCNP certified and still find myself watching your videos

Office Space... CLASSIC!
Thank you Jeremy. You are always the Best because your Teaching Skills is Superb.
A thumbs up just for the switch smash! Brilliant!

0:17 "Let's get physical, physical!" xD
Best channel ever

@11:50 HAH! I have (2) 8 port switches inside my office.

Small switch gets unplugged ? Thats why USW flex exists, powered by POE
What if Switch #2 goes down? How can devices from Switch #1 communicate with the ones down?
Replace the switch
make more smashing videos.

Ahhh...that switch kept giving you "PC load letter".
Nice video, Keep It Simple Stupid
