An enterprise you are working for needs the installation of Ten (10) new computers. Every one of the computer’s NIC (network adapter) is expected to communicate at 1000 Mbps over its twisted-pair cabling. This cabling must be able to send and receive data at the same time. Which Ethernet standard would you consider, and what technology should you utilize?
Why would you want to go with a DHCP solution that has a high availability for your company? Which is better? Any drawbacks? Why is this the option that you would rather go with? How soon do you anticipate the DHCP server on your network failing? How soon will the DHCP in your house stop working?
In the context of cable standards, delve into the differences between TIA/EIA-568A and TIA/EIA-568B wiring schemes for Ethernet cables. When would you use one over the other?

- Through the use of switches, a single LAN is able to connect two hundred workstations and four servers. On your local area network (LAN), you have noticed an excessive number of broadcast packets, and you would like to lessen the impact they have. How do you plan to accomplish this objective?arrow_forwardAn ethernet switch swl interconnects four switches sw2, sw3, sw4 and sw5. Each of the four switches (sw2 - sw5) interconnects four hosts A,B,C and D. Does the network performance improve or does it degrade when you replace the switch swl with a router? Discuss any two factors that contribute to the change in performance that you have highlightedarrow_forwardA large number of switches are required to link all of the workstations and servers in a LAN, which include 200 workstations and four servers. To reduce the amount of broadcast traffic on your network, you need to reduce the amount of broadcast packets being sent. How will you meet this goal?arrow_forward

What cable would you need to make this connection?arrow_forwardWhen you send a particular packet of information across a network, it needs to be routed from the sender to the intended receiver. (a) Explain how information is communicated over a network, including mentioning the equipment you need to direct the information. (b) Outline different cabled approaches you could use to create an ethernet network. (c) Draw a schematic of a local area network that can connect 10 users to 100Gbps data rates, mentioning the equipment you would use.arrow_forward
