1. Suppose the three departmental switches in Figure 5.15 are replaced by hubs. All links are 120 Mbps. Now answer the questions posed in Problem P23.

Problem P23

Consider Figure 5.15. Suppose that all links are 120 Mbps. What is the maximum total aggregate throughput that can be achieved among 12 hosts (4 in each department) and 2 servers in this network? You can assume that any host or server can send to any other host or server. Why?
