Question
Which interface condition is occurring in this output?
Options
- Abroadcast storm
- Bcollisions
- Chigh throughput
- Dduplex mismatch
Explanation
Although the exhibit is missing, the correct answer suggests that the interface statistics, such as high transmit and receive rates or high utilization percentages, indicate the interface is experiencing high throughput. This means the interface is actively processing a significant volume of network traffic.
Common mistakes.
- A. A broadcast storm would typically manifest as extremely high broadcast packet counts and potentially network slowdowns, but high throughput itself doesn't directly indicate a storm.
- B. Collisions are indicative of half-duplex operation or excessive network contention on shared media, and would be shown by an increase in the 'Collisions' counter, not necessarily high throughput.
- D. A duplex mismatch would lead to a significant increase in late collisions, runts, and giants, or input errors, often accompanied by very poor throughput, not necessarily high throughput.
