A switch is configured with all ports assigned to VLAN 2 with full duplex FastEthernet to segment
existing departmental traffic. What is the effect of adding switch ports to a new VLAN on the
switch?
A.
More collision domains will be created.
B.
IP address utilization will be more efficient.
C.
More bandwidth will be required than was needed previously.
D.
An additional broadcast domain will be created.
Explanation:
Each VLAN creates its own broadcast domain. Since this is a full duplex switch, each port is a
separate collision domain.
D the given answer does not match the explanation. Then answer is A, which matches the explanation.
If the switch has 5 collision domains, creating VLAN does not increase these 5 collision domains; it will, however, add one new broadcast domain.
