The core switch must be a Layer 3 switch
Typically, core switches are Layer 3 switches equipped with robust network management capabilities. They are characterized by numerous ports and high bandwidth, offering greater reliability, redundancy, throughput, and lower latency compared to access and aggregation switches. Engineered to aggregate massive volumes of data from distribution switches, it provides ultra-low latency and maximum throughput to ensure uninterrupted routing and packet. Positioned at the top of the three-layer network architecture, it functions like a senior management team in an organization, tasked primarily with efficiently. The lowest tier is the access layer, which is used to connect all of the various end devices, such as PCs, printers, and other.
