Very nice and very straightforward! Thanks!
Additionally, a router includes an ethernet switcj plus other services like Network Address Translator, a Hardware firewall, DHCP server, DNS, etc.

Technically, hubs don't actually send traffic out all ports. A hub must never emit a frame out the same port it was received on.
Hubs are big and clunky.
One can make a custom sniffing cable that has 4 connectors (two connectors at each end of the cable), where the sniffing ends have nothing connected to the TX pairs, so the sniffer cannot transmit, and the switch won't see you.
Modern switches have the ability for the admin to configure mirror, SPAN, or MONITOR ports.
Not really, but they have to be very close to you on the network (between you and the switch). The switch can be set to send an alert when two hardware devices are sharing the same port, but sniffers can be configured to only listen and never broadcast anything. You could use encryption, like a vpn or https session but that is the only protection.

Yes, I have at least 3 WiFi shows coming up. They take a little longer to shoot, so I have to work them into my schedule.

Great video. It would have been better if TechAnvil could name the sessions in the way to be seen, I am little confused which one comes first and next.
Thanks a lot again for sharing ur knowledge.

I have been thinking about just that. DO you think I should split them up by topic?
