What is a jabber?

0

A blanket term for a device that is behaving improperly in terms of electrical signalling on a network. In Ethernet this is Very Bad, because Ethernet uses electrical signal levels to determine whether the network is available for transmission. A jabbering device can cause the entire network to halt because all other devices think it is busy.
