Core Switches
The Cisco/HP/Core switch is not a particular class of network switch. It refers to the data switch that is situated in the physical core or backbone of the network and is used to carry traffic to different network segments. In data centers, a switch made by Cisco, HP, and Core can be either an MPLS switch or a layer 2 switch.
Because it can switch between Layers 3 and 2, the Cisco/HP/Core switch distinguishes itself from other switches. Because the Layer 2 Switch turns Layer 2 or data link into a network protocol and the Layer 3 Switch is required to understand the network protocol, it is easy to generate erroneous network, such as data overflow and traffic overflow. Layer 3 switches convert Layer 2 signals, thus Layer
