What are two reasons to install routers to segment a network? (Choose two.)

  • to limit the number of devices that can connect to the network
  • to expand the network to a different geographic location
  • to create smaller broadcast domains within the network
  • to reduce the number of switches needed to connect devices

Explanation: There are a number of reasons to use routers to divide a network into smaller segments. Expanding the network into a different geographic location may require the use of routers at both locations. Another reason is to limit broadcasts that must be processed by all devices on the network segment. Routers do not forward broadcast traffic off the local network segment.
