Zorluk: KolayNetwork Hardware Devices

A network technician is setting up a local office area network. All desktop computers must be connected using physical Ethernet cables to share resources on the exact same local IPv4 subnet. Inter-subnet routing and Internet access are not required for this deployment. Which network hardware device should be installed to connect these computers together?

  1. A Layer 2 network switchCevap
  2. B
    A network router
  3. C
    A DHCP server
  4. D
    An APIPA address pool

Cevap

A Layer 2 network switch is the correct network hardware device for interconnecting devices on the same local subnet.
A Layer 2 network switch forwards frames based on physical MAC addresses to interconnect multiple network endpoints within the same local IP subnet without requiring routing functions.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the network requirement
The requirement calls for connecting local wired devices on a single IPv4 subnet without routing across network boundaries.
Devices on the same subnet communicate using Data Link layer (Layer 2) addressing.
2
Identify the appropriate network device
Select a Layer 2 switch.
Switches inspect destination MAC addresses and forward Ethernet frames between connected endpoints within the same collision/broadcast domain.
