Question 9

What is the difference between a managed and an unmanaged switch in a wireless network?

Accepted Answer

A managed switch offers advanced features, such as traffic management and monitoring, while an unmanaged switch offers basic connectivity

Answer

A managed switch has fewer features and is less secure than an unmanaged switch

Answer

An unmanaged switch provides more control over network security than a managed switch

Answer

A managed switch is typically cheaper and easier to use than an unmanaged switch
