Question 10

Which device is more intelligent when sending data packets?

  1. Router
  2. Switch
  3. Modem
  4. None of these
Answer

Switch

Reason — Switches are more intelligent when sending data packets compared to routers and modems. A switch is responsible for filtering data packets and only sending them to the devices that require the data. This is because a switch is a device used to segment networks into different subnetworks called subnets or LAN segments.
