What are the disadvantages of the Token Ring system? - CORRECT
ANSWER-1. If an error changes the token pattern, it can cause the
token to stop circulating.
What is a disadvantage of the Token Ring system from the
troubleshooting and maintenance? - CORRECT ANSWER-The token
ring path must be temporarily broken or interrupted if a
computer or any device on the network is to be removed or
added to the network.
What is a solution to the troubleshooting and maintenance
disadvantages of the Token Ring system? - CORRECT ANSWER-
Connect each computer or device on the network to a central
token ring hub.
A device that manages the passing of the token instead of
relying on individual computers to pass it. - CORRECT ANSWER-
Token ring hub
,How does the token ring hub improve the network? - CORRECT
ANSWER-It improves the reliability of the network.
Topology whereas the computers share the media or coaxial
cable for data transmission. - CORRECT ANSWER-Bus topology
The coaxial cable that is looped through each networking device
to transmit data in a bus topology - CORRECT ANSWER-ThinNet
In this topology, all devices on the network can see each other's
data traffic. - CORRECT ANSWER-Bus topology
Topology whereas each computer must wait for pauses in
transmission or until the transmission from one device is
complete before initiating a new transmission onto the
network. - CORRECT ANSWER-Bus topology
What are the disadvantages of a bus topology? - CORRECT ANSWER-
"1. Data can be corrupted if ore than one device on the network
transmits at the same time and will have to be resubmitted.
2. The use of the shared coaxial cable prevents data
transmission from being very bandwidth-efficient."
Which topology is seldomly used in modern networks? - CORRECT
ANSWER-Bus topology
What is the most common topology used in today's LANs? -
CORRECT ANSWER-Star topology
, Topology that uses twisted-pair cables with modular plugs to
connect computers and other networking devices. - CORRECT
ANSWER-Star topology
Topology whereas each device is connected to a switch or hub -
CORRECT ANSWER-Star
A switch or hub facilitates the transfer of data between
networking devices in this topology - CORRECT ANSWER-star
Transmits data to all the devices connected in the star network -
CORRECT ANSWER-hub
Also called a multiport repeater - CORRECT ANSWER-hub
Not meant for large networks, but are still used in some
smaller, slower speed LANs - CORRECT ANSWER-hub
A transmission from a hub in a star network to all the devices in
the network connected to the hub - CORRECT ANSWER-broadcast
Stores the hardware or physical address for each device
connected to its ports in a star network - CORRECT ANSWER-switch
Sends data transmissions directly to the port of the destination
device on the network - CORRECT ANSWER-switch
