How many collision domain in a hub?

Hubs are not collision domains but a networking device. Hubs have single collision domain that makes them very undesirable for modern networks.


How many broadcast domain are created when you segment a network with 12-port switch?

Zero. No collisions can occur within a full-duplex environment, as transmit and receive operations are performed on another set of wires. Thus, no collision domains would exist. Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/DC) is not part of a full-duplex network for this reason.

How many collision domains with one router and two switches?

In Router one and in switch each port having collision domain.


How many frames can passthrought a24port hub at one instance in time with no colllition occurring?

Since Hubs are Physical-layer devices and do not segment collision domains (which switches do), the answer is "one". Since switch DO segement collision domains, a switch can pass as many frames as it has ports.


How many collision and broadcast domain are there if a router is directly connected to hub?

A hub contains a single collision domain and a single broadcast domain, regardless of the number of ports on the hub.


How many collision domain do you have if you have 3 HUSwith 10 clients connected per HUB?

If, by "HUSwith" you mean "hubs with", and by "hub" you really mean "hub" and not "switch" then you'll have either three collision domains (if the three hubs are not connected to each other) or a single collision domain (if the three hubs are connected to each other). Replace the hubs with switches and you'll have 30 collision domains, if the switches are not connected, or 32 or 33 if they are (depending on how the inter-switch connections are made: two switches connected to a common third vs. each switch connected to both the other two).


How many collision domains exist in a network with 15 hosts interconnected by means of a hub?

For any amount of clients connected to a hub you will get a total of 1 collision domain. A hub is a device that simply repeats all of the signals from the ports and does not separate clients into separate collision domains.


What is meant by single broadcast domain and single collision domain?

A collision domain is a section of a network where data packets can collide with one another when being sent on a shared medium or through repeaters, in particular, when using early versions of Ethernet. A network collision occurs when more than one device attempts to send a packet on a network segment at the same time. Collisions are resolved using carrier sense multiple access with collision detection in which the competing packets are discarded and re-sent one at a time. This becomes a source of inefficiency in the network.[1]Only one device in the collision domain may transmit at any one time, and the other devices in the domain listen to the network in order to avoid data collisions. Because only one device may be transmitting at any one time, total network bandwidth is shared among all devices. Collisions also decrease network efficiency on a collision domain; if two devices transmit simultaneously, a collision occurs, and both devices must retransmit at a later time.Collision domains are found in a hub environment where each host segment connects to a hub that represents only one collision domain and only one broadcast domain. Collision domains are also found in wireless networks such as Wi-Fi.Modern wired networks use a network switch to eliminate collisions. By connecting each device directly to a port on the switch, either each port on a switch becomes its own collision domain (in the case of half duplex links) or the possibility of collisions is eliminated entirely in the case of full duplex links.A broadcast domain is basically a VLAN. The broadcast domain defines how far a Layer-2 broadcast will propagate on the network, which is to say the broadcast will hit every device on the VLAN, or every device on the "subnet". Routers block broadcasts by design. If you need to leave your broadcast domain (get off your local subnet) then you jump up to layer 3 and go through a router to talk to machines on some other broadcast domain. The layer 2 broadcast will typically traverse all hubs, bridges and switches in a single VLAN. If you question was in the context of using a "single broadcast domain" just be careful not to do that for a relatively large network with several hundred or thousands of nodes, or the network performance and/or the end-station performance will suffer because of all the broadcast traffic.
