Which three statements are true about the operation of a full-duplex Ethernet network?
There are no collisions in full-duplex mode.
A dedicated switch port is required for each full-duplex node.
Ethernet hub ports are preconfigured for full-duplex mode.
In a full-duplex environment, the host network card must check for the availability of the network media before transmitting.
The host network card and the switch port must be capable of operating in full-duplex mode.
Options
A. 1, 2, and 5
B. 2 and 4
C. 2, 3 and 4
D. 5 only
Correct Answer
1, 2, and 5
Explanation
Full-duplex means you are using both wire pairs simultaneously to send and receive data. You must have a dedicated switch port for each node, which means you will not have collisions. Both the host network card and the switch port must be capable and set to work in full-duplex mode.

1. Which of the following are types of flow control?
Correct Answer: Configure a separate subinterface for each PVC with a unique DLCI and subnet assigned to the subinterface.
Explanation:
If you have a serial port configured with multiple DLCIs connected to multiple remote sites, split horizon rules, stop route updates received on an interface from being sent out the same interface. By creating subinterfaces for each PVC, you can avoid the split horizon issues when using Frame Relay.
5. Which command will display the CHAP authentication process as it occurs between two routers in the network?
Routers operate at layer 3. LAN switches operate at layer 2. Ethernet hubs operate at layer 1. Word processing applications communicate to the Application layer interface, but do not operate at layer 7, so the answer would be none.
8. Which of the following describe router functions?
Routers provide packet switching, packet filtering, internetwork communication, and path selection.
9. A receiving host has failed to receive all of the segments that it should acknowledge. What can the host do to improve the reliability of this communication session?
A receiving host can control the transmitter by using flow control (TCP uses Windowing by default). By decreasing the window size, the receiving host can slow down the transmitting host so the receiving host does not overflow its buffers.
10. Which layer 1 devices can be used to enlarge the area covered by a single LAN segment?
