Which statement describes a result after multiple Cisco LAN switches are interconnected?

  • The broadcast domain expands to all switches.
  • One collision domain exists per switch.
  • There is one broadcast domain and one collision domain per switch.
  • Frame collisions increase on the segments connecting the switches.
  • Unicast frames are always forwarded regardless of the destination MAC address.

Explanation: In Cisco LAN switches, the microsegmentation makes it possible for each port to represent a separate segment and thus each switch port represents a separate collision domain. This fact will not change when multiple switches are interconnected. However, LAN switches do not filter broadcast frames. A broadcast frame is flooded to all ports. Interconnected switches form one big broadcast domain.
