Select the correct statement(s) regarding partial mesh networks. a. the number of links connecting nodes in a partial mesh network depends upon the availability and reliability requirements of the network
b. switches play an integral role in a partial mesh network, where several paths through the network are available
c. redundant links and switches are used to improve the availability and reliability of partial mesh networks
d. all of the statements are correct"

all the answers are correct

Explanation:

Partial mesh networks is simply a packet switching networks which is connected and require that there should be establishment of a circuit before the exchange of packets.

Partial mesh networks are less expensive to implement when they're being compared to the full mesh networks and are also less redundant.

The correct statements regarding partial mesh networks are:

•the number of links connecting nodes in a partial mesh network depends upon the availability and reliability requirements of the network

• switches play an integral role in a partial mesh network, where several paths through the network are available

• redundant links and switches are used to improve the availability and reliability of partial mesh networks
