Question

(TCO 1) Name one disadvantage of fixed-configuration switches over modular switches. a. Ease of management b. Port security b. Fewer high-speed ports d. Easier to add additional portse. Increased delay

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is A.

Explanation:

Two main types of network switches, modular and fixed configuration switches, are used for connecting the devices with one another provided they are on the same network.

As the name suggests, modular switches can be configured according to your needs and specific situations where you need a different setup.

The one advantage fixed-configuration switches have over the modular switches is that they are easier to operate. You can't change anything for a different application but they are simpler to setup and use, you can just plug them in and start using. They are usually for the more casual end-user and home networks etc.

I hope this answer helps.
