Question 15

A router can be replaced with a bridge.

Answer

False

Reason — A bridge is a device that connects two networks together and can handle networks that follow the same protocols. On the other hand, a router is a network device that forwards data from one network to another. It functions similarly to a bridge but can handle different protocols. A router differs from a bridge in that the former uses logical addresses, while the latter uses physical addresses.
