Question 42

Matching

Match each item with a statement below:

Premises:

Responses:

A switch running in this mode reads a frame's header and decides where to forward the data before it receives the entire packet.

VLANs

Logically separate networks within networks.

loopback adapter

Plugs into a port and crosses over the transmit line to the receive line so that outgoing signals can be redirected into the computer for testing.

PCIe

Holds incoming data and accommodates bursts of traffic.

repeater

Connectivity device that subdivides a network into smaller logical pieces.

store-and-forward mode

Capable of transferring data at up to 1 Gbps per data path.

bridge

Devices that connect two network segments by analyzing incoming frames and making decisions about where to direct them based on each frame's MAC address.

switch

Has no means to interpret the data they retransmit.

cut-through mode

A switch running in this mode reads the entire data frame into its memory and checks it for accuracy before transmitting the information.

buffer
