d, enter the no service password-encryption command.

protect
***restrict
shutdown

ed a saved configuration from a TFTP server to a switch. Why does the administra
tor not detect any changes in the switch configuration after the download comple
tes?

The hub will block the port connected to Host 4 to prevent a collision.
Hosts 1 and 4 are assigned shorter backoff values to provide them priori
ty to access the media.
***If a host has data to transmit after the backoff period of that host, th
e host checks to determine if the line is idle before transmitting.
