What does a VLAN do?

  • A.Acts as the fastest port to all servers.
  • B.Provides multiple collision domains on one switch port.
  • C.Breaks up broadcast domains in a layer 2 switch internetwork.
  • D.Provides multiple broadcast domains within a single collision domain.

Answer: C

Correct answer: Breaks up broadcast domains in a layer 2 switch internetwork.

A switch by itself puts every port in one broadcast domain. Assigning ports to different VLANs divides them into separate broadcast domains within the same physical switch, so a broadcast in one VLAN is never seen in another, and traffic between VLANs requires a router or a layer 3 switch. Each port already has its own collision domain, VLAN or not; that is what makes it a switch.
