N10-009 Exam Dumps - CompTIA Network+ Certification Exam

Speed Mismatches: If NICs are set to different speeds (e.g., 100 Mbps on one side and 1 Gbps on the other), performance will degrade. Ensuring consistent speed settings between devices is crucial for optimal performance.

Load balancer settings (B): Applies to server load distribution, not endpoint speed.

Flow control settings (C): Can affect performance but is secondary to speed mismatches.

Infrastructure cabling grade (D): Relevant if the cables are unsuitable for gigabit speeds, but speed settings should be checked first.
