Which of the following is a characteristic of full-duplex communication?

Which of the following is a characteristic of full-duplex communication?

A. It is a CSMA/CD network.
B. It is a CSMA/CA network.
C. It is point-to-point only.
D. Hub communication is done via full duplex.

Answer: C. It is point-to-point only.

Explanation:

The meaning of full duplex in computer network simply refers to a device can send and receive data without collision. Whereas Half duplex refers a device can either send or receive data. But it cannot do both at the same time.

CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) a set of rules determining how network devices respond when two devices attempt to use a data channel simultaneously (called a collision).

CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance) is a protocol for carrier transmission in 802.11 networks. Unlike CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detect) which deals with transmissions after a collision has occurred, CSMA/CA acts to prevent collisions before they happen.

Hub is a half duplex device whereas switch is full duplex.

Cisco Packet Tracer Multi User Connection

Multiuser communication allows multiple point-to-point (peer) connections between multiple instances of Packet Tracer. By allowing communication between Packet Tracer instances, a new door has been opened to a fun, interactive, social, collaborative, and competitive learning environment. Instructors will now be able to create a variety of activities for students to learn in groups that will facilitate greater social interaction between students. Students will benefit from this environment by working together to solve problems and share ideas. Both students and teachers should take full advantage that Multiuser will offer in their learning environment. Technical Information Communicates between instances using PTMP. PTMP is TCP based. By default, uses TCP port 38000, is customizable, and each new instances on the same PC will use the next available port. On by default. UPnP will attempt to establish port forwarding to facilitate home networks. All network co...

CCNA RIPv2 Simulation

Central Florida Widgets recently installed a new router in their Apopka office. Complete the network installation by performing the initial router configurations and configuring RIPv2 routing using the router command line interface (CLI) on the Apopka router. To configure the router (Apopka) click on the console host icon that is connected to a router by a serial console cable (shown in the diagram as a dashed black line). Each of the windows can be minimized by clicking on the [-]. You can also reposition a window by dragging it by the title bar. The “Tab” key and most commands that use the “Control” or “Esc” keys are not supported and are not necessary to complete this simulation. The help command does not display all commands of the help system. Configure the router per the following requirements: Name of the router is Apopka Enable-secret password is ish555ana The password to access user EXEC mode using the console is New2Rtr The password to allow te...
