CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 241

Which of the following devices have the capability to allow communication between two different subnetworks? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. IDS
• B. Access point
• C. Layer 2 switch
• D. Layer 3 switch
• E. Router
• F. Media converter

Correct answer: D, E

Explanation

The correct answers are D (Layer 3 switch) and E (Router) because both devices operate at the network layer and are designed to route traffic between different subnets. In contrast, A (IDS), B (Access point), C (Layer 2 switch), and F (Media converter) do not have the capability to route traffic between subnets as they function at different layers or for different purposes.
