The CK Daily – The Game or the Commercials?
Good Monday morning! And Happy Valentine’s Day! What a game last night! I’m not a huge fan of sports in general, but I do appreciate championship games, and I like to see the pinnacle of athleticism being displayed. Last night’s Super Bowl did not disappoint, I didn’t know who was going to win until the very end. I have family that live in LA so I guess I should be a Ram’s fan. I enjoyed the halftime show as well, very nostalgic, but mostly I enjoyed snacking and watching some of the commercials like the flaming hot Frito-Lay commercial and the GM Dr. Evil commercial. Anyways who did you root for in the Super Bowl? And more importantly what was your favorite commercial? Or were you like me and focused on enjoying the snacks and the commercials?
P.S. I forgot to mention that I named my plants with the help of one of our subscribers, Jen N. I’ve named the Purple Waffle – “Waffle”, The Rabbit Foot’s Fern – “Peter”, and the Nerve Plant – “Toni”! Thanks again, Jen! I will post an update later, but the plants are healthy and are still alive!

Learning Center Article – Best Way to Connect Multiple Switches
What is the purpose of connecting multiple switches? In most cases, the goal is to expand network access. When you connect switches, you get more ports that can be used, and that means more devices can utilize the network.
Depending on the configuration, connecting multiple switches can also increase the bandwidth of the network. This is important for any demanding network that is short on total bandwidth. Read more here on the best way to connect multiple switches.
