Note that all of the packets are ARP requests sent to the Ethernet broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF). Detail the impact this switching loop/broadcast storm would have on network communication given what you have learned about Ethernet and CSMA/CD. (Choose all that apply.) A broadcast storm occurs when a broadcast frame is forwarded endlessly in a switching loop. The switching loop/broadcast storm continually occupies the medium, possibly preventing hosts from transmitting. Conditions worsen when hosts attempt to retransmit and wait longer and longer periods to do so (binary exponential backoff). Collisions are extremely likely given the number of packets. Under CSMA/CD, hosts must wait until the medium is not in use before transmitting.

All of these choices

Which of the following may be found in a routing table entry? Destination Network Timestamp Metric Source of the route Next Hop

All of these choices

Connect the switch to a PC NIC and configure different speeds on the NIC by using the NIC driver. You're okay if the switch links at all speeds. It's called auto-MDIX. b. Connect two switches by using a crossover cable. If the connection works, the switch supports auto-negotiate. c.
