hub is a device for connecting multiple twisted pair or fiber optic Ethernet devices
together and making them act as a single network segment. Hubs are not
sophisticated and are broadcast devices. Hubs do not manage any of the traffic
that comes through them, and any packet entering any port is regenerated and
broadcast out on all other ports. LDP 612: Week 6 17
