What should be looked at first to determine if a customer
should switch from a hub environment to a switched environment?
A. Investigate the number of broadcasts
B. Investigate the number of collisions
C. Determine what routing loops are present
D. Determine which switching type is being used by the hubs
Answer / guest
Answer: B
You should investigate the number of collisions to determine
if a customer should switch from a hub environment to a
switched environment. A collision domain is the network area
within which frames that have collided are propagated or
increased. Repeaters and hubs propagate collisions but
switches, bridges, and routers do not. By controlling
collisions, users have more available bandwidth and have
better response time.
