    This document discusses issues that can arise from having too many hosts in a single broadcast domain. Specifically, it mentions broadcast storms caused by excessive Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) or Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) traffic from multiple nodes. It also notes that adding hubs for connectivity can exacerbate this problem by increasing the broadcast domain size.

    Multicasting
    Low bandwidth
    Adding hubs for connectivity to the network
    A bunch of ARP or IPX traffic (IPX is a Novell protocol that is like IP, but
    really, really chatty. Typically not used in today’s networks.)
