Zorluk: KolayNetwork Hardware Devices

A desktop technician needs to connect multiple wired computers within a single office room to allow direct communication on the same local subnet using physical MAC addresses. Which of the following hardware devices is designed to forward traffic between local nodes based on Layer 2 MAC addresses?

  1. Network SwitchCevap
  2. B
    Network Router
  3. C
    DNS Server
  4. D
    APIPA Generator

Cevap

The network switch is the correct device because it operates at Layer 2 to forward network frames between nodes on the same local subnet using their destination MAC addresses.
A network switch is designed to connect multiple devices within the same local network (LAN) segment. It operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model and inspects destination MAC addresses in received Ethernet frames to forward traffic directly to the correct output port.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary requirement in the scenario.
Connecting nodes on the same local subnet using MAC addresses (Layer 2 frame switching).
The scenario emphasizes intra-subnet communication and Layer 2 addressing without crossing network boundaries.
2
Evaluate the functions of candidate hardware devices.
A network switch maintains a MAC address table to inspect incoming frames and forward them directly to the appropriate physical port.
Switches handle local Ethernet traffic at the Data Link layer.

Anahtar Kavram

Layer 2 MAC address forwarding by network switches within local subnets.
