Consider that I need to connect 15 computers
on different collision domains. I understand that each port on a switch has a separate collision domain. So, all I need to do is to connect 15 computers to a Switch
. But I have only (say)10 ports on the Switch
. So, adding a Hub
to the Switch
in order to connect the rest of the computers
, would put those computers on the same collision domain. But I want all of them in different collision domains. So what should be done to just extend the number of ports on the switch?
P.S. I'm surprised I couldn't find an answer either in here or google. I'm also surprised that many still think that this could be achieved by just adding a hub to a switch, which is a complete blunder. I would appreciate any solution. Thanks!
