Answer:
Switches break up collision domains and routers break up broadcast domains.
Explanation:
- Collision domain depicts the part within a network where a collision can happen.
- Collision occurs when two hosts transmit data packet at the same time within a network. Theses packets collide and the hosts have to resend the data after some time.
- Too many collisions can result in slow traffic speed and can effect network performance.
- So switches break up collision domains between the devices on a network and each port in a switch depicts a collision domain. This reduces the chance of packet collisions between the devices or hosts.
- When data is to be sent to a host, the switch keeps that data frame and waits for availability of the destination host before sending the data frame.
- Moreover full duplex switch mode there is not chance of collision as the transmitting path on one host is the receiving path on other host.
- Broadcast domain contains all the hosts that can reach each other at the Data Link layer via broadcast.
- Routers break up broadcast domains as routers contain separate broadcast domains for each interface.
- Routers do not forward broadcasts from one broadcast domain to other and drop the packet when they detect a broadcast address.
Answer:a) Mainframes, miniframes, PCs, desktop Internet computing, mobile computing
Explanation: The hierarchy of the computers or computing are in the generation is:-
- Mainframe:-designed for the execution of huge data processing , storage and execution.
- Miniframe:-has similar functioning as the mainframe but on smaller scale and version.
- Personal computer(PC):-It is designed for the individual purpose and according the need of the user.
- Mobile computing:-computing that can be done on the mobile phone similar to the computing on the personal computer
- Internet computing:-the computing of the mobile and computer system with the facility of the internet connectivity.
