Both switches and hubs are being utilized within the network. Which of
the following is true regarding the use of switches and hubs for network
connectivity in this network?
A. Switches take less time to process frames than hubs take
B. Hubs can filter frames
C. Switches do not forward broadcasts
D. Switches increase the number of collision domains in the network
E. Using hubs can increase the amount of bandwidth available to hosts
F. None of the above

Back 1

Answer: D

Front 2

Which one of the following characteristics is true regarding the use of hubs and
switches?
A. Hubs can have their ports be configured with VLANs
B. Using hubs is costly with regard to bandwidth availability.
C. Switches can not forward broadcasts.
D. Switches are more efficient than hubs in processing frames.
E. Switches increase the number of collision domains in the network.

Back 2

Answer: E
Explanation:
Switches increases the number of collisions domains in the network. Switches that
are configured with VLANs will reduce the size of the collision domains by
increasing the number of collision domains in a network, but making them smaller
than that of one big, flat network.

Front 3

When comparing and contrasting the similarities and differences between bridges
and switches, which of the following are valid statements? Choose all the valid
answer choices)
A. Bridges are faster than switches because they have fewer ports.
B. A switch is a multiport bridge,
C. Bridges and switches learn MAC addresses by examining the source MAC address of
each frame received.
D. A bridge will forward a broadcast but a switch will not.
E. Bridges and switches increase the size of a collision domain.
F. None of the above statements are true.

Back 3

Answer: B, C
Explanation:
Both bridges and switches build the bridge table by listening to incoming frames and
examining the source MAC address in the frame.
Switches are multiport bridges that allow you to create multiple broadcast domains. Each
broadcast domain is like a distinct virtual bridge within a switch.

Which of the following correctly describe the various functions and virtues of a
router? (Select all valid answer choices)
A. Packet switching
B. Collision prevention on a LAN segment.
C. Packet filtering
D. Broadcast domain enlargement
E. Broadcast forwarding
F. Internetwork communication
G. None of the above

Back 4

Answer: A, C, F
Explanation:
The main function of a router is to connect different, separated networks together. In
doing so, switching packets from one network to another is a primary function, along
with providing for communication between networks. As an additional feature, routers
are capable of providing filtering on a network address and application port level, so
choice C is also correct.

The LAN needs are expanding at the Testking corporate office, which is quickly
growing. You are instructed to enlarge the area covered by a single LAN segment on
the TestKing network.
Which of the following are layer 1 devices that you can use? (Choose all that apply.)
A. A switch
B. A router
C. A network adapter card
D. A hub
E. A repeater

Back 5

Answer: D, E
Explanation:
A hub simply repeats the electrical signal and makes no attempt to interpret the electrical
signal (layer 1) as a LAN frame (Layer 2). So, a hub actually performs OSI layer 1
functions, repeating an electrical signal, whereas a switch performs OSI layer 2 functions,
actually interpreting Ethernet header information, particularly addresses, to make
forwarding decisions. Hubs can be used to increase the number of stations that can be
supported on a LAN.
Because the repeater does not interpret what the bits mean, but does examine and
generate electrical signals, a repeater is considered to operate at Layer 1. Repeaters can be
used to physically extend the LAN to greater distances.

QUESTION NO: 6
Cisco is the leader in the router market space. What basic functions do their routers
perform in a network? (Choose two)
A. The microsegmentation of broadcast domains
B. Path selection
C. Packet switching
D. Bridging between LAN segments
E. Access layer security
F. VLAN membership assignment
G. Application optimization

Back 6

Answer: B, C
Explanation:
The primary functions of a router are: Packet Switching and Path Selection. It is the
routers job to determine the best method for delivering the data, and switching that data
as quickly as possible.

Front 7

QUESTION NO: 7
Both bridges are switches are being used throughout the TestKing LAN. Which of
the following statements are true regarding bridges and switches in this network?
(Choose 3)
A. Switches are primarily software based while bridges are hardware based.
B. Switches usually have a higher number of ports than most bridges.
C. Bridges are frequently faster than switches.
D. Bridges define broadcast domains while switches define collision domains.
E. Both bridges and switches forward Layer 2 broadcasts.
F. Both bridges and switches make forwarding decisions based on Layer 2 addresses.
