  1. 3. the name assigned to a wirelessnetwork is called
  2. 4. the rightmost port has a button next to it for changing the port's configuration.
  3. 5. the scope of devices to which broadcast frames are forwarded is called?
  4. 6. what is used to interconnect multiple computers so that they can communicate with one another?(eg.hub)
  5. 8. when a device can send or receive, but not both at the same time
  6. 11. a mode turns off the gatekeeper functions and enables the NIC to process all frames it sees
  7. 13. what is the amount of data that can be transferred on a network during a specific interval?
  8. 14. Because a switch is capable of frowearding frames to only a single port instead of all ports as a hub does, it can handle several computer conversations at one time, thereby allowing each device the full network bandwidth, or ()
  9. 15. Thing that attaching a computer to a network required to create and mediate the connection between the computer and the networking medium.
  10. 18. it tells a router where to send a packet with a destination network that can't be found in its routing table.
  11. 19. when a device can send data and receive data simultaneously.
Down
  1. 1. what is making a connection between devices such as two switches, usually for the purpose of expanding a network.
  2. 2. what in a computer's IP adress settings must be set to the adress of a router to which the computer can send all packets destined for other networks.
  3. 4. Destination MAC adresses intended for a single computer are called?
  4. 7. if no other stations are trying to send data, the AP responeds with a () message letting the requesting station knoww that it can send data.
  5. 9. At the heart of a wireless LAN is the wireless ()?
  6. 10. Before a computer can transmit data to the AP,it must first send a short()message to let the AP know it intends to transmit data.
  7. 12. A switch maintains a ()of MAC adresses that have been learned and their associated port numbers.
  8. 16. it enables multiple LANs to communicate with one another by forwarding packets from one LAN to another.
  9. 17. A frame with a destination MAC address composed of all binary 1s or FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF in hexadecimal
