Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The number of users on a network can affect the network performance
A
true
B
false
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Having too many users on the same network service can slow the speed of the network, decreasing the benefit for users. Providers of goods and services that use a network effect must ensure that capacity can be increased sufficiently to accommodate all users.

Detailed explanation-2: -Network problems can arise from faulty hardware such as routers, switches, and firewalls. They can also arise from unexpected usage patterns such as in the case of network bandwidth spikes that exceed their allocated bandwidth for users, or due to security breaches, changes in device configuration, etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -Throughput and Bandwidth For network performance measurement, throughput is defined in terms of the amount of data or number of data packets that can be delivered in a pre-defined time frame.

Detailed explanation-4: -Network Performance is “the analysis and review of collective network statistics, to define the quality of services offered by the underlying computer network [that is] primarily measured from an end-user perspective."
