Having read much too much literature about the setup of a home network I am comming to a point that I need a simple manual for my needs.
This is surely not a topic for opensuse-factory.
My two computers are both connected through a switch with the router by cable. I want to have the possibility to exchange data between the computers on a regular base. Both are running Tumbleweed. The computers are both physically under my control. Looks like there are straight solutions until you start reading everything there is about connecting computers via a home network. Would appreciate help of an expert.
Sounds like you've done most of the work already, i.e. the two computers are connected to a switch. Then you just need to assign some network addresses. As you have a router on your network too (presumably for your internet connection), it probably has a dhcp server, so just configure both computers to use dhcp (the default) on the network interface.
