Bridge: Bridge operate Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) of the OSI Reference model., Bridge connects only two LAN segments together, Bridge have a special mechanism that ovoid collisions receives from one LAN segment and filter them before sending to another LAN segment .



Switch : switch operate Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) of the OSI Reference model ,Switch connects more than  two LAN segments together beacuse Switch is multiport  Bridge have a special mechanism that ovoid collisions receives from one LAN segment and filter them before sending to another LAN segments.  Switches have a CAM (contents addresses memory ) table for MAC address filtering .

Types of Switches: 

Modular switches :Allows you to add  expansion modules into the switches as needed so that they provide flexibilty to changing network capabillties.
