Explanation:

Bridge networks have the following characteristics: each segment has its own collision domain, all connected devices are part of the same broadcast domain, and all segments must have the same data link layer implementation.

Incorrect Answers:

B is incorrect; when a network is segmented by a bridge the collisions domains increase and not decrease. C and D are incorrect; the addition of a bridge to a network has no effect on the number of domains.

Q.15

Exhibit:

Router#show interface serial 0

Serial0 is down, line protocol is down Hardware is HD64570

Internet address is 172.22.5.1/30

MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1544 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, rely 255/255, load 1/255 Encapsulation HDLC, loopback not set, keepalive set (10 sec)

Last input never, output 00:03:11, output hang never Last clearing of "show interface" counters never

Input queue: 0/75/0 (size/max(drops): Total output drops: 0

Queuing strategy: weighted fair

Output queue: 0/1000/64/0 (size/max active/threshold/drops) Conversations 0/2/256 (active/max active/max total) Reserved Conversations 0/0 (allocated/max allocated)

5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

0 packets input, 0 bytes, 0 no buffer

Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles

0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort 11 packets output, 476 bytes, 0 underruns

0 output errors, 0 collisions, 27 interface resets

0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out

11 carrier transitions

DCD=down DSR=down DTR=down RTS=down CTS=down

Based on the output of the show interface serial 0 command issued on a DTE router, which OSI layer is most likely source of the problem?

A.Physical layer

B.Data layer

C.Network layer

D.Transport layer
