If hub is replaced with switch is there any changes in collision domain?

In most modern-day network switches, collision is no longer a problem. Network switches are good at handling these situations to avoid collision problems.

What devices can you use to limit the size of a collision domain?
A switch or router will limit the number of clients in a collision domain, thus limiting what can be in the collision domain.
How do routers and switches separate collision domains?
in my opinion there is no any collision domain in the router......but switch has collision domains for each interfaces & hub has one collision domain
What does implementing a lan switch reduce?
Lan switches eliminate collision domain. A single collision domain in a network would mean half duplex as it can only send or receive at one time. each port of a switch is considered a collision domain in itself. so more the number of collision domain , better for the network.
When segmenting a LAN what device cannot be used to reduce the collision domain?
Hubs do not reduce collision domains. All devices connected to the hub are in a single collision domain, where as on a switch, each port is its own collision domain.
Can you analyze Collision count of the switch. Can you analyze the collision count of the Switch Explain your answer.?
On a switch each port is its own collision domain, therefore collisions do not happen.
What is a single collison domain?
A collision domain is an area on the network where two devices may attempt to transmit at the same time. A hub has 1 collision domain overall. A switch has 1 collision domain per interface. The fewer devices in 1 collision domain, the better. ----
What would be used to limit the expansion of an Ethernet collision domain?
In the olden days you would use a bridge because hubs were one collision domain. The bridge was basically an expensive switch. Today on switches each switch port is on its own collision domain.
How does a layer 2 switch create collision domains?
When using network switches, each port on the switch is its own collision domain.
Collision domain of router?
Like a switch, a router places nodes that are connected to it in separate collision domains.
Can I connect a Cisco catalyst 2950 switch to a hub?
Yes. A hub will be one giant collision domain for that entire switch port. So if its an 8 port hub and you have 8 devices connected to it that collision domain will have 8 devices in it.
How many collision domains with one router and two switches?
In Router one and in switch each port having collision domain.
Why are switches more important than hubs as they both transmit data through ports?
Switch work's full-duplex mode, but HUB work's on Half-duplex mode. each port of switch is a different collision-domain, but HUB is single collision-domain.
