What device increases broadcast overhead traffic in the network?
Large numbers of hosts on a single network:Actual Data OverheadA big part of the overhead is broadcasts.In this context, each network is called a broadcast domain.Switches forward broadcasts to each device connected to a switch port.If we can reduce broadcast overhead, it would improve performance on the network.
What device separates broadcast domains?
SwitchDescription: Network Switch a device that seperates the Broadcast domain of a LAN segment from other segments.
What network device uses a MAC address table to segment network?
