Discuss excess utilization.

What will be an ideal response?


Ethernet exhibits poor performance when its utilization is 60% or more. Excess utilization (including plenty of lost bandwidth due to collisions) is typically the result of too many stations operating in the same collision domain. Replacing hubs with switches or routers will partition the network into multiple collision domains, each containing a smaller number of stations. The improvement in performance will be very noticeable.
