After listening for the presence of a signal on the network media, hosts A and C transmit data at
the same time. In what two ways do the hosts respond to this situation? (Choose two.)

The hosts transmit a jam signal to ensure that all hosts on the network are aware that a
collision has occured.
Because they are operating in full-duplex mode, the hosts resume listening for traffic in
preparation for sending future messages.
Because the hub will temporarily block traffic from one of the hosts, that host will be allowed to
transmit once the wire is clear.
Hosts A and C are assigned shorter backoff values to provide them priority to access the media for
retransmission.
After the backoff period of a host, the host checks to determine if the line is idle before
retransmitting.

4 Which three statements are correct concerning the default configuration of a new switch?
