In bus topology, if a computer has less than 64 bytes of data to send then it must pad the data by
Correct answer: B. Adding 0s
- A. Adding 1s
- B. Adding 0s
- C. Subtracting 0s
- D. Subtracting 1s
Explanation
In bus networks, data packets are sent sequentially to all devices on the network. There is a minimum packet size required to ensure efficient data transmission. If a computer has a small data packet (less than 64 bytes in this case), it adds extra bits (padding) to the data packet to reach the minimum size. This padding with 0s ensures that the receiver can correctly identify the beginning and end of the data packet
