Which statement about contention and congestion in switches and
routers is FALSE?
Group of answer choices
a. When contention becomes sufficiently severe, it becomes congestion.
b. Datagram networks are immune to contention and congestion
because they permit additional connections only when sufficient
resources are available in their switches or routers.
c. Contention occurs when a frame/packet must wait in a queue because
there is at least one other frame/packet currently being transmitted
ahead of it on the outbound interface (port).
d. Congestion occurs when no more switch or router memory remains to
hold inbound frames/packets. Frames/packets which arrive during
congestion will be lost (dropped).
