Off Topic: Can someone explain in simple terms (by analogy, perhaps) the difference between the function of a hub, a switch (which seems to have replaced much of the hub market), and a switching router (if that overlaps the function of a switch) in a typical office network setting?

Thanks in advance. PM please, to avoid clutter.
