Which two issues can cause both runts and giants in Ethernet networks? (Choose two.)
- a malfunctioning NIC
- CRC errors
- electrical interference on serial interfaces
- half-duplex operations
- using the incorrect cable type
Explanation: Because collisions are a normal aspect of half-duplex communications, runt and giant frames are common by-products of those operations. A malfunctioning NIC can also place frames on the network that are either too short or longer than the maximum allowed length. CRC errors can result from using the wrong type of cable or from electrical interference. Using a cable that is too long can result in late collisions rather than runts and giants.
