Questions and Answers

What is the primary goal of the Spanning Tree algorithm in a network?

To maximize the number of connections between nodes.

To connect all nodes with the minimum total edge weight. (correct)

To ensure there is at least one cycle in the network.

To minimize the number of nodes in the network.

Which of the following components are represented by the boxes in the network diagram?

Network segments

Bridge IDs (correct)

Edge weights

Connection costs

If a cycle is formed during the construction of the spanning tree, what should be done?

Study Notes

Spanning Tree Algorithm Analysis

A network diagram is presented, showing numbered boxes (bridges) and lettered clouds (network segments).
The numbered boxes represent bridge IDs.
The lettered clouds represent network segments.
The diagram shows connections between bridges with associated costs (e.g., 24, 92, 12, 4, 5, 7).
