Question

Select the correct statement(s) regarding switched ethernet lans.

a. ethernet switches must read the destination addresses of each incoming data packet in order to determine which outgoing port it should be sent through
b. data collisions do not occur on switched ethernet lans that are configured in full-duplex (fdx) mode
c. with hdx (half-duplex) switched ethernet, use of cdma/cd is still required since data collisions can occur
d. all statements are correct

Answer 1

The correct statements regarding switched Ethernet LANs are about destination addresses, data collisions, and half-duplex mode.

Therefore, the correct answer is: option d). all statements are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Ethernet switching connects wired devices such as computers, laptops, routers, servers, and printers to a local area network (LAN).

Multiple Ethernet switch ports allow for faster connectivity and smoother access across many devices at once.

The correct statement(s) regarding switched Ethernet LANs are:

1. Ethernet switches must read the destination addresses of each incoming data packet to determine which outgoing port it should be sent through.
2. Data collisions do not occur on switched Ethernet LANs that are configured in full-duplex (fdx) mode.
3. With half-duplex (hdx) switched Ethernet, the use of CDMA/CD is still required since data collisions can occur.

Therefore, statement a, b, and c are correct.
