There are several ways to reduce network congestion. Subnetting and adding routers will break up broadcast domains and traffic. Adding VLANs will do the same while adding security. Upgrading the speed of NICs and wiring, i.e. moving from 10BaseT to 100 or 1000, will reduce congestion as will moving from half duplex transmissions to full duplex transmissions.

How VLAN reduces the network traffic?
yes, it reducing the network traffic
What is the importance of Traffic signal light to reduce traffic congestion?
The light reduces the chance of an accident, causing the traffic congestion to go down the most during rush hour.
In which OSI layer does congestion occurs?
congestion is Traffic in excess of network capacity. it occurs network layer and it is one of the function of network layer.
Which layer is done by congestion control?
at the network layer, congestion control mechanism takes place
What would benefit the most from implementing traffic shaping on your network?
Streaming Video Files
How does TCP detect congestion?
It don't control congestion that is up to the routers and gateways as they are the ones that look at the traffic and figure out the best way to send something over the internet.
What is congestion in networking describe briefly?
A state occurring in part of a network when the message traffic is so heavy that it slows down network response time.
What is elastic and inelastic internet traffic?
Elastic traffic: -adjust its throughput between end hosts in response to network condition. - Generally TCP-based application (HTTP,STMP,FTP) - Principle form of feedback: packet loss caused by network load/congestion, causing TCP to implements its congestion avoidance algorithm and reduce the rate at which packets are sent over the network -TCP traffic is considered to be "network friendly" Inelastic traffic: - does not adjust its throughput in response to network conditions - generally real-time multimedia (audio streaming, video,VoIP)
Are the objectives of flow control and congestion control the same?
Average rate will remain same but Flow control: end-to-end mechanism for regulating traffic between source and destination • Congestion control: Mechanism used by the network to limit congestion
How do you traffic congestion and parking diffulties?
Are you asking how do I handle traffic congestion and parking difficulties? With patients, that's how.
What kind of problems are caused by excessive broadcasts traffic on a network segment?
Excessive broadcast traffic can cause network congestion, and cause systems within that broadcast domains to be slowed down by having to process large amounts of packets.
How do you limit bandwidth in a small office network?
You need to get a router or switch allowing shaping traffic including bandwidth limiting.
