The Virtual Ethernet Switch is a connectivity solution that simplifies the process of connecting devices, computers and network segments in a network or sharing network connections.
Virtual Ethernet Switch is a software that allows users to connect devices, computers, and network segments into a network with ease. With this software, users no longer need to carry extra hardware or search for power outlets. By simply converting a laptop into a network switch with custom settings for each port, VES eliminates the usual hassle.
Aside from its convenience, VES's lightweight implementation as an application also reduces interference with other programs. Its selection of network cards as switch ports adds flexibility, allowing users to choose the most appropriate hardware for the job and fine-tune its parameters. The software also has the capability to connect (dial-out only) to WiFi networks to share network with other computers by assigning a wireless network card to a switch port.
The task of connecting and disconnecting network segments of wireless and wired media types becomes easy with VES. Each port can be designated as Smart or Dumb, allowing users to limit or broaden traffic visibility when network monitoring is used. Port exclusivity settings can also allow or prohibit the local use of network cards already assigned as network switch ports.
One restriction of VES, however, is its support for only static IPs. Although this may limit some users, it also ensures consistent connectivity of devices and networks whenever the software is used. Overall, Virtual Ethernet Switch is a useful tool for those seeking a hassle-free way to connect various devices and networks.
