IEEE 802.3ad
Standard based method to control the bunding of several physical network links together to form a logical channel.

Question 7

MTU

Answer 7

Maximum Transmission Unit.

Question 8

How does MTU work

Answer 8

Largest a IP packet can be to transmit but not fragment.

Question 9

In order to send communication in most effectivt way possible you need to be able to set the MTU for packets are fragmented.

Question 10

Fragmentation tends to slow down communications and if we lose a fragment we need to resend entire packet.

Question 11

Difficult to know the MTU all the way through the path

Answer 11

espeically when ICMP is flitered

how large can Jumbo Frames be

Answer 12

Up to 9216 bytes

what is the Maximum size of MTUs

Answer 13

1500 Bytes

Question 14

How big are ethernet frames

Answer 14

1500 Bytes

Question 15

Mbps

Answer 15

megabits per second.
measures speed

Question 16
