A collision fragment, also known as a_ frame, is a frame of fewer than 64 bytes in length

H1 sends a unicast message to H2, and the switch forwards it directly to H2.

H2 has sent a broadcast message to all of the hosts. If host H1 wants to reply to the broadcast message, which statement is true?

broadcast

On Ethernet networks, the hexadecimal address FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF represents the _ MAC address.

RT1 will send an ARP reply with its own Fa0/0 MAC address

PC1 issues an ARP request because it needs to send a packet to PC3. In this scenario, what will happen next?

It is a nondeterministic method

What is a characteristic of a contention-based access method?

00-60-2F-3A-07-CC

What is the destination MAC address of the Ethernet frame as it leaves the web server if the final destination is PC1?

an address that reaches a specific group of hosts

What type of address is 01-00-5E-0A-00-02?

It sends the frame to all ports except the port on which it received the frame.

Which action is taken by a Layer 2 switch when it receives a Layer 2 broadcast frame?

FFFF.FFFF.FFFF

Which destination address is used in an ARP request frame?

no switchport

Which interface command must be entered in a Layer 3 switch before an IPv4 address can be assigned to that interface?

fowarding rate

Which term defines the processing capabilities of a switch by rating how much data can be processed per second?

It is responsible for Media Access Control, it adds a header and trailer to form an OSI Layer 2 PDU

Which two functions or operations are performed by the MAC sublayer?

MAC

this ethernet sublayer is responsible for communicating directly with the physical layer
