Question:

Match List - I with List - II. 

List - IList - II
A.EthernetI.Uses token passing and deterministic access
B.Token ringII.Uses CSMA/CD for medium access
C.Wi-Fi (802.11)III.Uses CSMA/CA to avoid collision
D.BluetoothIV.IEEE 802.15.1

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Show Hint

Wires detect (CSMA/CD). Wireless avoids (CSMA/CA). Rings pass tokens. Bluetooth is 15.1.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

We match various networking technologies with their standard protocols and access methods. 1. Ethernet (A-II): Standard wired LANs (IEEE 802.3) use CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) to manage access to the physical medium. 2. Token Ring (B-I): A legacy network type where a physical or logical "token" is passed between nodes. Only the node holding the token can transmit, making it a deterministic access method. 3. Wi-Fi (C-III): Wireless networks (IEEE 802.11) cannot detect collisions easily (hidden terminal problem), so they use CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance). 4. Bluetooth (D-IV): Bluetooth is a Personal Area Network (PAN) technology standardized under IEEE 802.15.1.
