Diff between router and switch

Question

Accepted Answer

Routers connect multiple networks together, while switches connect devices within a single network.

Routers operate at the network layer (Layer 3) of the OSI model, while switches operate at the data link layer (Layer 2).
Routers use IP addresses to forward data between networks, while switches use MAC addresses to forward data within a network.
Routers are typically used to connect different networks, such as a home network to the internet, while switches are used to connect devices within a network, like computers, printers, and servers.
Routers can make decisions based on IP addresses and routing tables, while switches make decisions based on MAC addresses and forwarding tables.
