When a bridge is powered on in an Ethernet network‚ they learn the network’s topology by viewing and analysing the source address of incoming frames from all attached network segments. A switch is a complex collection of bridges‚ developed as networking technology advances. This switch increases the speed of communication as it creates unique mini networks‚ also known as circuits. These can be implemented on a LAN to do three things: Increase the speed of connection Control larger systems

networks. In order to better understand how the two concepts of a logical design and physical design work hand-in-hand‚ let ’s first look at what the concepts entail. A logical design is a concept‚ thought or theory as to how you wish your network topology to function‚ inclusive with Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. It is more of an intangible concept that is used normally when initially in the developmental stages of designing the network. Within these developmental stages‚ one wants to consider

I do not feel like concepts and design ideas are a great resource to actually learn how to use any of the systems but they do give a pretty good idea. Cabling SpecificationsEthernet is a Local Area Network (LAN) technology with a transmission rate of 10 Mbps and has a typical star topology. Computers and devices must wait-and-listen for transmission time on the network as only one device can transmit at any one time. In order to operate with this network strategy‚ Ethernet incorporates CSMA/CD (Carrie
