F PTS: 1 REF: Because bridges regenerate the network signal when they pass it from segment to segment, they can extend the cable's usable distance.

T PTS: 1 REF: Each port on a switch has its own unique IP address. F, router PTS: 1 REF: When TCP/IP is used on an internetwork, the logical address is known as an IP address. T PTS: 1 REF: The type of Network and Application protocols used by the devices on a network dictate the format of the logical address. F, Transport PTS: 1 REF: Routers use information from routing tables, which they use to route packets from one network to another.

List three disadvantages of using repeaters on a network. 1. Repeaters cannot connect different network architectures. 2. Repeaters do not reduce network traffic. 3. Repeaters do not segment the network. PTS: 1 REF: List three advantages of using repeaters on a network. 1. Repeaters can extend the total network distance. 2. Repeaters do not seriously affect network performance. 3. Certain repeaters can connect networks using different physical media. PTS: 1 REF: How does a bridge reduce network traffic?

10 A bridge filters traffic between network segments by examining the destination MAC address that is sent in the data packet. Based on this destination MAC address, the bridge either forwards or discards the frame. If the MAC address is located on a segment other than the originating segment, the bridge forwards it. If the frame was meant for the local segment, the bridge discards the frame. In this way, the bridge reduces network traffic by keeping local traffic on the local segment. PTS: 1 REF: Describe the operation of transparent bridges. When a transparent bridge first receives power, its bridging table is empty. Over time, it learns which segments have which MAC addresses as packets are forwarded. The bridge uses the source and destination MAC addresses to determine which addresses are on which segments. By determining a packet's origin, the bridge knows where to send packets in the future. PTS: 1 REF: List five advantages of using bridges on a network. 1. Bridges can extend the network by acting as a repeater. 2. Bridges can reduce network traffic by subdividing network communications. 3. Bridges increase the available bandwidth to individual nodes because fewer nodes share a collision domain. 4. Bridges reduce the likelihood of network collisions. 5. Some bridges connect networks using different media types and architectures. PTS: 1 REF: List three disadvantages of using bridges on a network. 1. Because bridges do more than repeaters by viewing MAC addresses, the extra processing makes them slower than repeaters. 2. Bridges forward broadcast packets indiscriminately, so they do not filter broadcast traffic. 3. Bridges are more expensive than repeaters. PTS: 1 REF: List five advantages of using switches on a network. 1. Switches have increased available network bandwidth. 2. With switches, there is reduced workload on individual computers. 3. Switches increase network performance. 4. There are fewer frame collisions because switches create collision domains for each connection. 5. Switches have an unlimited number of ports and connect directly to workstations. PTS: 1 REF: List three disadvantages of using switches on a network.

11 1. They are significantly more expensive than bridges. 2. Network connectivity problems can be difficult to trace through a switch. 3. Broadcast traffic may be troublesome. PTS: 1 REF: List four advantages of using routers on a network. 1. Routers can connect different network architectures, such as Ethernet and Token Ring. 2. Routers can choose the best path across the network using dynamic routing techniques. 3. Routers create collision domains by segmenting the network. 4. Routers reduce network traffic because they do not re-transmit network broadcast traffic. PTS: 1 REF: List four disadvantages of using routers on a network. 1. Routers work only with routable network protocols; not all protocols are routable. 2. Routers are more expensive than bridges or repeaters. 3. Dynamic router communications cause additional network overhead, which results in less bandwidth for user data. 4. Routers are slower than bridges or repeaters because they must analyze a data transmission from the Physical through the Network layer, whereas repeaters and bridges only read two layers of information: Data Link and Physical.
