5. Written Lab : Networking Devices Flashcards
This layer creates a virtual circuit before transmitting between 2 end stations.
Router
This device sends and receives information about a Network layer.
Transport
A layer 3 switch or multilayer switch.
Router
This device uses hardware adresses to filter a network.
Bridge or switch
Ethernet is defined at these layers.
Data Link and Physical
This layer supports flow control and sequencing.
Transport
This device can measure the distance to a remote network.
Router
Logical adressing is used at this layer.
Network
Hardware adresses are defined at this layer.
Data Link (MAC sublayer)
This device creates one big collision domains, but the network is still one large broadcast domain.
Hub
This device creates many smaller colliosion domains, but the network is still one large broadcast domain.
Switch or bridge
This device can never run full-duplex.
Hub
This device breaks up collision domains and broadcast domains.
