A switch is the device that handles data traffic between nodes on the same network. It operates at the data link layer of the OSI model and uses MAC addresses to forward data to the correct destination within a local area network (LAN). By efficiently directing data packets, switches help reduce collisions and improve overall network performance.
What else can I help you with?
What device routes all traffic to and from your network?
A router is a device that routes all traffic to and from your network. A router functions by forwarding packets of data between computer networks.
Is a device that controls traffic between network components?
A switch/router
What device control traffic in networks?
A serverThe device that manages trafic between two networks is a router.
What is an inline device?
Device which are on the network and the traffic is passing thru it.
What network device directs network traffic?

A network technician must reduce the amount of broadcast traffic on the network while maintaining full connectivity between all different network segments Which device should the administrator deploy?
This device is called a ROUTER. Routers are by default configured to not pass the broadcast traffic to another networks to which it connects. But by some means it could be also a SWITCH - sometimes it can be configured to filter different type of network traffic.
Which device passively monitors the network for malicious traffic?
IDS
A device that filters data traffic at a network boun dery and reduce the amount of traffic on a LAN by dividing it into two segments?
The device you’re referring to is typically a router or a switch with VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) capabilities. By segmenting the network into two or more parts, it reduces broadcast traffic and improves overall network performance. This segmentation helps isolate network issues and enhances security by controlling traffic flow between segments. Additionally, it allows for better management of network resources and can improve bandwidth utilization.
What device transfers traffic from one network to another on the Internet?
Router
What is attached inside the computer so that it can participate in the network?
A Network Interface Card (NIC) is a hardware device that handles an interface to a computer network and allows a network-capable device to access that network. It is a computer hardware component designed to allow computers to communicate over a computer network.
What is a computer or device on a network that handles shared network resources called?
Application server is incorrect.The correct answer is System Software
The device used to divide a network into segments and allow for improved traffic flow is?
Switch
