Network Fundamentals

What is a characteristic of a collapsed-core network topology?

  • A It enables all workstations in a SOHO environment to connect on a single switch with internet access.
  • B It enables the core and access layers to connect to one logical distribution device over an EtherChannel.
  • C It allows wireless devices to connect directly to the core layer, which enables faster data transmission.
  • D It allows the core and distribution layers to run as a single combined layer.
Explanation

A collapsed-core network design merges the core and distribution layers into one combined layer, which is commonly used in smaller networks to simplify the architecture while still providing high-speed switching and routing between access devices and upstream resources.
