Which device separates broadcast domains? router
Which two special characteristics do LAN switches use to alleviate network congestion? (Choose two.) Fast port speeds Fast Internal switching
Which statement is true about broadcast and collision domains? adding a switch to a network will increase the size of the broadcast domain
What is one function of a Layer 2 switch? determines which interface is used to forward a frame based on the destination MAC address
What is the significant difference between a hub and a Layer 2 LAN switch? a switch creates many smaller collision domains, and a hub increases the size of a single collision domain
What will a Cisco LAN switch do if it receives an incoming frame and the destination MAC address is not listed in the MAC address table? forward the frame out all ports except the port where the frame is received
Which switch characteristic helps alleviate network congestion when a 10 Gbps port is forwarding data to a 1 Gbps port? frame buffering
Which switching method makes use of the FCS value? store-and-forward
What does the term "port density" represent for an Ethernet switch? the number of available ports
Which information does a switch use to keep the MAC address table information current? the source MAC address and the incoming port
Which two statements are true about half-duplex and full-duplex communications? (Choose two.) full duplex increases the effective bandwidth full duplex allows both ends to transmit and receive simultaneously
Which type of address does a switch use to build the MAC address table? source MAC address
Which option correctly describes a switching method? store-and-forward: ensures the the frame is free of physical and data-link errors
Which network device can serve as a boundary to divide a Layer 2 broadcast domain? router
What is the purpose of frame buffers on a switch? they hold traffic, thus alleviating network congestion
