Aim:

To create the given scenario and analyze the performance of a set of LANs
interconnected by switches and hubs with different inter-arrival time

Tools Required:

NetSim v9.1
Theory:

Hub:
Hub is a networking devices which is used to transmit the signal to each port
(except one port) to respond from which the signal was received. Hub is
operated on Physical layer. In this packet filtering is not available. It is of two
types: Active Hub, Passive Hub.
It is also known as a repeater as it transmits signal to every port except the
port from where signal is received. Also, hubs are not that intelligent in
communication and processing information for 2nd and 3rd layer.

Switch:
Switch is a network device which is used to enable the connection
establishment and connection termination on the basis of need. Switch is
operated on Data link layer. In this packet filtering is available. It is type of full
duplex transmission mode and it is also called efficient bridge.
