Do you have a Local Access Network (LAN) at your office?  Are you currently using a bridge instead of a switch?  If so, you need to know what kind of benefits you could enjoy if you were using one of the many types of Cisco switches instead of that bridge on your LAN.  One of the nice things about using switches is the fact that all of the users on your network will no longer be forced to share the network bandwidth with everyone else.  Instead, they will be able to enjoy their own dedicated bandwidth, which it’s needless to say can greatly improve network performance.
