5. What
is a disadvantage to using bridges in your
network?
A. Filters by MAC address
B. Stops broadcast storms
C. Doesn't stop broadcast storms
D. Can only use up to 4 bridges in any LAN
Answer: C
Even though the 5-4-3 rule specifies you can only have 4 bridges
in a network, that is not really a disadvantage. The disadvantage
to bridging is that it filters by MAC address and cannot create
separate networks like a router can. This means that if a broadcast
storm was to take place a bridge will forward the frames.
