What is the Effect of Collision? campbell123 12-March-2009 06:17:09 PMComments www.cs.virginia.edu/papers/whitehouse05emnets.pdf Posted by sagitraz Collisions have the effect of clogging up a network because they prevent data from being sent. The more hosts you have sharing a wire, and the more data they have to send, the worse it gets. A group of devices that are affected by one another's collisions is called a collision domain. As networks grew, it became necessary to break up collision domains so that there were fewer collisions in each one. Devices called bridges and switches did this. Posted by sabastian |
