Configuring full duplex and speed auto negotiation in switches and segment with VLANs.
Explanation:
A network switch is a device used to transmit frames between nodes in a network. It operates in the layer 2 (data-link layer) of the OSI networking model. Each connection to a device from a switch is called a collision domain.
To impact the overall network throughput on a switch, configure the interface to a full duplex state and an auto negotiating speed. This will reduce errors like collisions, late collisions, runts, giants etc.
Configuring more VLANs helps to segment a switch to create more virtual broadcast domain to reduce transmission delay due to a large broadcast domain on a router.
