Why do hosts on an Ethernet segment that experience a collision use a random delay before attempting to transmit a frame?
- A random delay is used to ensure a collision-free link.
- A random delay value for each device is assigned by the manufacturer.
- A standard delay value could not be agreed upon among networking device vendors.
- A random delay helps prevent the stations from experiencing another collision during the transmission.
