| Abstract: |
Computer networks, even though they have gone unnoticed, are increasingly present in the
media that surround society, whether in homes, workplaces, education or leisure settings. In
order for this to be possible, many network professionals are continuously working towards
the best results. But even these professionals had a starting point, teaching. This work had as
main objective to analyze the difficulties that involve the teaching of Computer Networks
with all its technical concepts and based on this to provide a Simulation tool that could
support it to demonstrate how it works of network devices during the communication between
they having as main focus the switch. In it will be presented all the specification, development
and operation of the tool that bears the name Switcher. During the specification phase, all
pertinent information about the implementation of the tool and all the agents involved were
surveyed. Based on this information the requirements were obtained so that if the
development of the tool was possible using the JavaFX Application Programming Interface
(API). The results obtained through the evaluations carried out with three different user
profiles were satisfactory, reaching the objectives and indicating that the tool could be used to
support the teaching in the field of networks in a specific field, as well as showing relevant
points that could be improved |
