Collision Domain
Refer to a network scenario where one device sends a frame out on a physical
network segment forcing every other device on the same segment to pay attention
to it. A network Collision occurs when two or more than two devices send a
packet on a network segment at the same time. This is bad because if two
devices on a single physical segment just happen to transmit data
simultaneously, it will cause of the collision and require these devices to
retransmit. Click Here:
Broadcast Domain
Broadcast Domain is
a group of devices on a particular network segment that hears all the
broadcasts sent out on that particular network segment.
But even though a
broadcast domain is usually a boundary delimited by physical media like
switches and routers, the term can also refer to a logical division of a
network segment where all host can communicate via a Data Link Layer, hardware
address broadcast.
CSMA/CD
CSMA/CD stands for
Carrier Sense Multiple Access/ Collision Detection. It is an Ethernet
networking protocol that helps devices to share the bandwidth evenly while
preventing two devices from transmitting simultaneously on the same network
medium. CSMA/CD was created to overcome the collisions problems that occur
while transmitting the packet from different nodes at the same time. To know more info:
