Bridges send information (data) to the specified destination, whereas hubs and repeaters do not.
What else can I help you with?
What can bridges do that hubs and repeaters cannot do?
Bridges send information (data) to the specified destination, whereas hubs and repeaters do not.
Which network topology do nodes act as repeaters?
Star Topology, where Hubs can act as repeaters.
Connectivity devices such as hubs and repeaters operate at which layer?
Hubs and repeaters operate at the Physical Layer of the OSI Model. The Physical Layer is the first layer of the OSI Model.
Do active hubs always act as repeaters in a network?
yes
Which device boosts the signal but does not segment the network?
Repeaters and Hubs
What is the maximum number of active hubs or repeaters that can be linked in a daisy-chain configuration?
10
What devices operate only at the Physical layer of the OSI model?
All network devices have some component that operates at layer 1. Only hubs and repeaters operate entirely at layer 1.
Do connectivity devices such as hubs and repeaters operate at the Presentation layer of the OSI Model?
No. Only protocols that users can see on their screen are considered Presentation Layer based. Hubs and repeaters operate on the physical layer, because it doesn't do anything with the data, it simply forwards it.
Which layer 1 devices can be used extend the area covered by a single LAN segment?
Repeaters and hubs
Which of the following is considered a Layer 2 device?
Switches are generally considered layer 2 devices, but many are capable of operating at layers 3, 4 or higher. Most hubs are amplifying the electrical signal; therefore, they are really repeaters with several ports. Hubs and repeaters are Layer 1 (physical layer) devices.
What are the devices that work on physical layer?
1) Physical layer is the first layer. 2) The simplest ones operate at the physical layer are: Repeaters, conventional hubs and transceivers. 3)These devices have absolutely no knowledge of the contents of a message. They just take input bits and send them as output. Cheers, AceInfo Solutions.
