Which of the following is true about hubs? A. They are more expensive than switches. B. They are less expensive than switches. Which of the following is true about switches? A. If there is an error in the frame, the receiver discards it. B. They update their forwarding table using the source MAC address of a frame. C. The forwarding table is stored on each computer's NIC, not in the switch's memory. On a network, all 38 of the stations in the marketing department are connected to switch A. That switch A is connected to port #1 on switch B in the network room. A file server is connected to port #5 on switch B. Which of the following is true about the forwarding table of switch B? A. It is empty because it learns port #1 is connected to a switch and not a PC. B. It has multiple entries in its forwarding table for port #1. C. It has only one entry in its forwarding table - Port:1; MAC address: MARKTGDPMT. D. It will go down soon because its forwarding table will be overloaded.

Users in the network discovered that the efficiency of a file transfer is low. The administrator used wireshark to observe the network and discovered many duplicate frames. Which statement correctly explains the reason for this? A. The switch doesn’t know the destination and has flooded frames. B. This network needs upgrading to use newer and more efficient switches. C. The network has loops at the link layer. D. The network has not been segmented using VLANs.
