and a modified version of the first two methods. Which
statement about switching methods is true?

A. The store and forward method has low latency

B. The cut through method of switching has high latency

C. The modified version holds the packet in memory until 50
percent of the packet reaches the switch

D. The modified version holds the packet in memory until the
data spoon of the packet reaches the switch

Answer Posted / shahid

Store and forward stores complete frame in buffer so it is memory intensive and I think this will take time also.
Cut-through doesn't store complete frame, it looks till destination MAC address and forwards, downside is that the corrupt frame will also be forwarded (in store & forward if frame is corrupted, not get forwarded)
In modified cut-through first 64 bytes are checked and then frame is forwarded (corrupt frame is not forwarded also).
