    example, a loop is created by connecting two RJ-45 ports on a GS524T Switch to a router containing a 4-port switch. Figure 2-4 shows another scenario where a router with a 4-port switch connects to a hub and to a GS524T Switch; the hub and switch, in turn, connect back to the same router, creating
