i have 2 switches because simply put, not enough room on the router.
but should i connect both switches to the router using 2 ports on the router? Or, cascade, one switch connected into the other's switch port?
Which is more efficient ? or faster? ( i know switches operate at gig speeds but routers normally don't) .
I know switches pass frames way faster then it would have to go through the router as packets?
which is the best topology 1 router + 2 switches - same LAN network?
