Answer: Please see below as the answer is self-explanatory

Explanation:

Repeaters, bridges and switches, route packets only within the limits of  their own physical networks, using the physical hardware addresses of the different devices connected to the network.

On the contrary, routers are devices that interconnect physical networks, with one physical interface per each network to which the router is connected to.

Routers use logical addresses -called IP addresses in the TCP/IP suite, which operate at the network level, and take charge of the delivery of packets beyond the network that originated it, based on the IP address of the destination host.

Only when the IP destination address is within the same physical network as the router, it transforms the IP datagram in a Frame and sends it using the physical hardware address of the host.

Name the different types of constructors that a designer can provide in a class. Provide an example with a class showing many co
Marrrta [24]
By default, if you do not implement a constructor, the compiler will use an empty constructor (no parameters and no code). The following code will create an instance of the MyObject class using the default constructor. The object will have the default vauesfor all the attributes since no parameters were given.

MyObject obj = new MyObject();

Another type of constructor is one with no parameters (no-arg constructor). It is similar to the default, except you actually create this constructor. The contents of the the constructor may include anything. To call a no-arg constructor, use the same line of code as above. The constructor can look like the one below:

public MyObject() {
System.out.println("This is a no-arg constructor");
}

Lastly there is the parameterized constructor. This type of constructor takes in parameters as inputs to assign to values in the newly created object. You call a parameterized constructor as follows:

MyObject obj = new MyObject("Bob", 20);

The constructor will look like this:

public MyObject(String name, int age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}

In the constructor, the keyword "this" refers to the object, so this.name is a private global variable that is being set equal to the inputted value for name, in this case "Bob".

Hope this helps!
