Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -CSMA/CD. In order to manage collisions Ethernet uses a protocol called Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD). CSMA/CD is a type of contention protocol that defines how to respond when a collision is detected, or when two devices attempt to transmit packages simultaneously.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a half duplex Ethernet network, a collision is the result of two devices on the same Ethernet network attempting to transmit data at exactly the same time. The network detects the “collision” of the two transmitted packets and discards them both. Collisions are a natural occurrence on Ethernets.
