Suppose two hosts are connected by a point-to-point link and they are configured to use Stop-and-Wait protocol for reliable data transfer. Identify in which one of the following scenarios, the utilization of the link is the lowest.
Which of the following statements is/are INCORRECT about the OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) routing protocol used in the Internet?
Consider a 100 Mbps link between an earth station (sender) and a satellite (receiver) at an altitude of 2100 km. The signal propagates at a speed of 3x108 m/s. The time taken (in milliseconds, rounded off to two decimal places) for the receiver tocompletely receive a packet of 1000 bytes transmitted by the sender is_________.
Consider the following statements about the functionality of an IP based router. I. A router does not modify the IP packets during forwarding. II. It is not necessary for a router to implement any routing protocol. III. A router should reassemble IP fragments if the MTU of the outgoing link is larger than the size of the incoming IP packet. Which of the above statements is/are TRUE?
Assume that you have made a request for a web page through your web browser to a web server. Initially the browser cache is empty. Further, the browser is configured to send HTTP requests in non-persistent mode. The web page contains text and five very small images. The minimum number of TCP connections required to display the web page completely in your browser is__________.
An organization requires a range of IP addresses to assign one to each of its 1500 computers. The organization has approached an Internet Service Provider (ISP) for this task. The ISP uses CIDR and serves the requests from the available IP address space 202.61.0.0/17. The ISP wants to assign an address space to the organization which will minimize the number of routing entries in the ISP's router using route aggregation. Which of the following address spaces are potential candidates from which the ISP can allot any one of the organization? I. 202.61.84.0/21 II. 202.61.104.0/21 III. 202.61.64.0/21 IV. 202.61.144.0/21
Consider a TCP connection between a client and a server with the following specifications: the round trip time is 6 ms, the size of the receiver advertised window is 50 KB, slow-start threshold at the client is 32 KB, and the maximum segment size is 2 KB. The connection is established at time t=0. Assume that there are no timeouts and errors during transmission. Then the size of the congestion window (in KB) at time t+60 ms after all acknowledgements are processed is _______.
