Describe how carrier sense multiple access protocol improves throughput compared to purely random acess protocol?

CSMA tries to determine whether the network is already in use by another system before attempting to transmit (multiple access). It is a contention based technique; devices contend with each other to use the network. So if a device is already transmitting the other device will wait.If devices were to randomly attempt to transmit without listening first there would be more collisions between devices, which would lead to lower throughput of data through the network.


What is the average throughput for gigabit network connection?

The throughput of a gigabit network connection can vary somewhat based on things such as the speed of the CPU, however, the average throughput is around 300Mb/s. The symbol for giga is G.

What is scalable network?

* Ability to handle growing amount of work * Capability of a system to increase total throughput under an increased load when resources are added * A scalable system is that whose performance improves after adding hardware, proportionally to the capacity added * A routing protocol is considered scalable with respect to network size, if the size of the necessary routing table on each node grows as O(log N), where N is the number of nodes in the network.

Is there a way to make one computer distribute network load across two adapters ex When the upload capacity of Ethernet is exceeded it will utilize the upload capacity of the WiFi Adapter?

i believe it is possible to tell it's network protocol to use a secondary network but it would probably means major programing


What is outbound throughput?

Outbound throughput simply describes the data bandwidth that a network device can send using. Kinda like a sustained upload speed.
