What is the result of segmenting a network with a bridge (switch)?
1. It increases the number of collision domains.
2. It decreases the number of collision domains.
3. It increases the number of broadcast domains.
4. It decreases the number of broadcast domains.
5. It makes smaller collision domains.
6. It makes larger collision domains.
A. 1 and 5
B. 2, 3 and 5
C. 3, 4 and 6
D. 1, 3 and 6
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Bridges break up collision domains, which would increase the number of collision domains in a network and also make smaller collision domains.This Question Belongs to Networking >> Spanning Tree Protocol
What is the purpose of Spanning Tree Protocol in a switched LAN?
A. To provide a mechanism for network monitoring in switched environments
B. To prevent routing loops in networks with redundant paths
C. To prevent switching loops in networks with redundant switched paths
D. To manage the VLAN database across multiple switches
E. To create collision domains
Which statement describes a spanning-tree network that has converged?
A. All switch and bridge ports are in the forwarding state.
B. All switch and bridge ports are assigned as either root or designated ports.
C. All switch and bridge ports are in either the forwarding or blocking state.
D. All switch and bridge ports are either blocking or looping.
A. Forwards the switch to the first available link
B. Drops the frame
C. Floods the network with the frame looking for the device
D. Sends back a message to the originating station asking for a name resolution
A. During high-traffic periods
B. After broken links are reestablished
C. When upper-layer protocols require high reliability
D. In an improperly implemented redundant topology
