3.1 CCNA 1 - Module 8

1
A network administrator has a multi-floor LAN to monitor and
maintain. Through careful monitoring, the administrator has
noticed a large amount of broadcast traffic slowing the network.
Which device would you use to best solve this problem?
bridge
hub
router
transceiver

2
What is the function of a Layer 2 switch?
forwards data based on logical addressing
duplicates the electrical signal of each frame to every port
learns the port assigned to a host by examining the destination
MAC address
determines which interface is used to forward a frame based on
the destination MAC address

3

Refer to the exhibit. The switch and the hub have default configurations,
and the switch has built its CAM table. Which of the hosts will receive
the data when workstation A sends a unicast packet to workstation C?
workstation C
workstations B and C
workstations B, C, and the E0 interface of the router
workstations B, C, D, E, F, and the E0 interface of the router

4

Refer to the exhibit. Forty-eight workstations are connected to a hub.
The users are able to connect to the network, but access is very slow.
An entry-level technician replaces the 10 Mbps hub with 100 Mbps
hub but the problem still exists. What is the most economical way
to correct the problem?
Replace the hub with a switch.
Replace the hub with a router.
Replace the hub with a 1 Gbps hub.
Replace the hub with a 10 Mbps fiber hub.

5

Exhibited is a portion of ABC Company internetwork.
Which of the connections can be full duplex?
segments 1 and 2
segment 2
segments 3 and 4
segments 2, 3, and 4
segments 1, 2, 3, and 4

6
What will a bridge do if it receives a frame with a MAC address
that is not within the table?
discard frame
ignore frame
send frame to appropriate port
send frame to all ports except source port

7
What is used to prevent Layer 2 switching loops?
bridging
segmentation
Address Resolution Protocol
Spanning-Tree Protocol

8
An administrator would like to connect ten workstations on a
192.168.0.0/24 network. The device selected by the administrator
must allow connectivity between hosts without sharing bandwidth.
Which device would be appropriate?
hub
router
switch
repeater

9
Which devices will create multiple collision domains in an
Ethernet network? (Choose two.)
NIC
hub
switch
router
repeater

10
Two newly hired technicians are discussing the implementation of
a new LAN. One technician proposes installing a hub. The other
technician advises installing a switch. Which statements are true
about the differences between a hub and a switch? (Choose two.)
A hub operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model.
A hub reduces the number of collisions on a LAN.
A hub works at a higher OSI model layer than a switch.
A switch provides more throughput to hosts on a LAN.
A switch provides a collision-free environment on a LAN.
The number of collisions on a LAN are the same whether a hub
or a switch is used.

11
A PC receives a frame. Which situation will cause the NIC on the
receiving host to pass the frame contents up the OSI layers to be
processed by the PC?
The frame is a runt frame.
The destination MAC address of the frame is FFFF.FFFF.FFFF.
The transmitting host generated a jam signal during the frame
transmission.
The recalculated checksum for the frame does not match the
FCS on the frame.

12
Which networking device reduces the size of both collision domains and broadcast domains?
hub
Layer 2 switch
router
bridge
repeater

13
Which devices are primarily used to extend cable segments within
a collision domain by regenerating the data signals? (Choose two.)
switch
repeater
router
bridge
hub

14
Which networking devices use the MAC address to make forwarding
decisions? (Choose two.)
NIC
bridge
hub
switch
repeater

15

Refer to the exhibit. How many broadcast domains exist in
classroom 240?
