Answers:
Answers
1. Answer C is correct. Bridges are
data link layer devices that are software based where as the Switches use the
ASIC switching hardware to achieve the same results of bridges but with more
speed and reliability.

2. Answer D is correct. Carrier Sense
Multiple Access collision avoidance is the media access scheme used by wireless
networks to overcome collision.
3. Answer A is correct. Source quench
is an ICMP request generated by the receiving end on buffer overflow to alert
the sending end and slow down the sending rate.
4. Answer B is correct. The only layer
of the OSI that can data is the Presentation layer.
5. Answer B is correct. All devices
having Ethernet interface, including a router, will have a MAC address assigned
to them.
6. Answer A is correct. OSPF sends individual
routing entries that have changed in the form of link packets to all the designated
routers.
7. Answer D is correct. A hardware address
is 48 bits long (6 bytes).
8. Answer A is correct. Designated routers
are so called because they are designated to receive routing updates for a particular
area on an OSPF network.
9. Answer A is correct. 100 denotes
the bandwidth, Base denotes the base band media type and Fx denotes the Fiber
optic media.
10. Answer B is correct. Wireless
network use broadband media.
