Recall that a TCP header has 16 bits reserved for Window Size. What are its implications in light of your calculations?

A TCP PDU of length 40,513 octets (including the TCP header) is to be transmitted over a physical link between two nodes at 1,064,218,818 bps using 802.3 with an MTU of 826 octets. Assume a LLC-PDU has an overhead of 4 octets and that the IP-PDU has no options. i) How many bits are sent over the connection from the source to destination assuming only full frames are sent? ii) What is the effective data rate from the TCP-PDU point of view (to nearest integer)? iii) If the propagation time between the two nodes is 5 microseconds what is the line efficiency to 3 decimal places assuming stop and wait is used between the two nodes?
State two advantages of dividing a communication system into layers such as e.g. is done in the TCP / IP stack with 5 layers from the application layer down to the physical layer. Also indicate if there is any possible disadvantage to stocking one communication system?
1) What is a Software Defined Network and how does it differ from a traditional (non-SDN) network? What are 3 advantages of an SDN? 2) We know that end to end error management is handled by TCP at the transport layer. So theoretically it is not necessary to implement error detection/correction at the link layer – yet it is implemented there. Why is it beneficial to implement error detection/correction at the link layer as well as the transport layer?
Consider the figure below. The IP and MAC addresses are shown for nodes A, B, C and D, as well as for the router's interfaces. Consider an IP datagram being sent from node D to node A. Give the source and destination Ethernet addresses, as well as the source and destination addresses of the IP datagram encapsulated within the Ethernet frame at points (5), (4), (2), and (1) in the figure above.

Use again the network architecture provided in the figure above, were RS, RC and Ri for i = {1,2,3,4}, the transmission rates of the server link, client link and intermediate network links. Consider a message that is 60 · 106 bits long that is to be sent from client to server. Ignore propagation, queuing, and processing delays. a.Now assume that Rc = 60Mbps, Rs = 40Mbps, R1 = R3 = 30Mbps, R2 = 10Mbps and R4 = 20Mbps. Suppose that the message is segmented into 6000 packets, with each packet being 10,000 bits long. How long does it take to move the first packet from source host to the first switch? When the first packet is being sent from the first switch to the second switch, the second packet is being sent from the source host to the first switch. At what time will the second packet be fully received at the first switch? b) How long does it take to move the file from source host to destination host when message segmentation is used if path R3, R4 is chosen?
