Detailed explanation-1: -Shared Memory Buffering In port-based memory buffering, frames are stored in queues that are linked to specific incoming and outgoing ports. Shared memory buffering deposits all frames into a common memory buffer, which all the ports on the switch share.
Detailed explanation-2: -Switch Speeds and Forwarding Methods Two methods of memory buffering are port-based memory buffering and shared memory buffering. Two types of duplex settings are used for communications on an Ethernet network: full-duplex and half-duplex.
Detailed explanation-3: -Frames in the memory buffer are dynamically linked to destination ports. All frames are stored in a common memory buffer. Frames are buffered in queues linked to specific ports.
