A network administrator is measuring the transfer of bits across the company backbone for a mission critical financial application. The administrator notices that the network throughput appears lower than the bandwidth expected. Which three factors could influence the differences in throughput

A network administrator is measuring the transfer of bits across the company backbone for a mission critical financial application. The administrator notices that the network throughput appears lower than the bandwidth expected. Which three factors could influence the differences in throughput

the amount of traffic that is currently crossing the network

the sophistication of the encapsulation method applied to the data

the type of traffic that is crossing the network

the latency that is created by the number of network devices that the data is crossing

the bandwidth of the WAN connection to the Internet

the reliability of the gigabit Ethernet infrastructure of the backbone

The amount of traffic that is currently crossing the network.

The type of traffic that is crossing the network.

The latency that is created by the number of network devices that the data is crossing.

The amount of information units that can be processed by a system in a particular period of time refers to the through pout of the system or  a network. The rate at which there exist a successful transfer of message through a network is the network throughput. Bandwidth refers to the potential of the data that is being transferred through a network at a particular time period.

The three important factors in the given example that helps in the determination of the difference in throughput can be the traffic amount the traffic type that is currently crossing the network, the latency that is being created by the number of network devices that the data is crossing.
