Consider Figure 3.58 . Assuming TCP Reno is the protocol experiencing the behavior shown above, answer the following questions. In all cases, you should provide a short discussion justifying your answer.j. Suppose TCP Tahoe is used (instead of TCP Reno), and assume that triple duplicate ACKs are received at the 16th round. What are the ssthresh and the congestion window size at the 19th round?k. Again suppose TCP Tahoe is used, and there is a timeout event at 22nd round. How many packets have been sent out from 17th round till 22nd round, inclusive?
Host A is sending an enormous file to Host B over a TCP connection. Over this connection there is never any packet loss and the timers never expire. Denote the transmission rate of the link connecting Host A to the Internet by R bps. Suppose that the process in Host A is capable of sending data into its TCP socket at a rate S bps, where S=10·R. Further suppose that the TCP receive buffer is large enough to hold the entire file, and the send buffer can hold only one percent of the file. What would prevent the process in Host A from continuously passing data to its TCP socket at rate S bps? TCP flow control? TCP congestion control? Or something else? Elaborate.
Consider transferring an enormous file of L bytes from Host A to Host B. Assume an MSS of 536 bytes.a. What is the maximum value of L such that TCP sequence numbers are not exhausted? Recall that the TCP sequence number field has 4 bytes.b. For the L you obtain in (a), find how long it takes to transmit the file. Assume that a total of 66 bytes of transport, network, and data-link header are added to each segment before the resulting packet is sent out over a 155 Mbps link. Ignore flow control and congestion control so A can pump out the segments back to back and continuously.

Recall that the TCP sequence number field has four bytes.b. For the L you obtain in (a), find how long it takes to transmit the file Assume that a total of 66 bytes of transport, network, and data-link header are added to each segment before the resulting packet is sent out over at 10 Mbps link. Ignore flow control and congestion control so A can pump out the segments back to back and continuously.
Host A and B are communicating over a TCP connection. Host B has already received from Host A all bytes up through byte 23. Suppose Host A then sends two segments to Host B back-to-back. The first and the second segments contain 30 and 50 bytes of data, respectively. In the first segment, the sequence number is 24, the source port number is 3000, and the destination port number is 80. Host B sends an acknowledgment whenever it receives a segment from Host A. A. In the second segment sent from Host A to B, what arethe sequence number_________,source port number __________,and destination port number__________?B. If the second segment arrives after the first segment, in the acknowledgment of the second segment, what arethe acknowledgment number___________,the source port number__________,and the destination port number __________?C.

Consider the scenario below where 4 TCP senders are connected to 4 receivers. The servers transmit to the receiving hosts at the fastest rate possible (i.e., at the rate at which the bottleneck link between a server and its destination is operating at 100% utilization, and is fairly shared among the connections passing through that link). R =1 Gbps and Rc is 300 Mbps and Rs is 400 Mbps. And that all four senders have data to send, What is the minimum value of Re that will ensure that the connections to Host-1 and Host-2 are not bottlenecked at links with capacity Rc or Re?

Consider 2 hosts, Host A and Host B, transmitting a large file to a Server C over a bottleneck link with a rate of R kbps. To transfer the file, the hosts use TCP with the same parameters (including MSS and RTT) and start their transmission at the same time. Host A uses a single TCP connection for the entire file, while Host B uses 9 simultaneous TCP connections, each for a portion (i.e. a chunk) of the file. Describe the relative transmission rates achieved by each host at the beginning of the file transfer?
We explore whether either UDP or TCP offers any level of end-point authentication in this problem. a. Consider a server that accepts a request via UDP and responds via UDP (for example, as done by a DNS server). Where would the server give its answer if a client with IP address X spoofs it with address Y? b. Assume a server receives a SYN with IP source address Y and responds with SYNACK. The server then receives an ACK with IP source address Y and the right acknowledgmentamount. Assuming the server selects a random initial sequence number and there is no "man-in-the-middle," how can the server be confident that the recipient is really at Y (and not at any other address X that spoofs Y)?

Host A and B are communicating over a TCP connection, and Host B has already received from A all bytes up through byte 126. Suppose Host A then sends two segments to Host B back-to-back. The first and second segments contain 80 and 40 bytes of data, respectively. In the first segment, the sequence number is 127, the source port number is 302, and the destination port number is 80. Host B sends an acknowledgment whenever it receives a segment from Host A. Suppose the two segments sent by A arrive in order at B. The first acknowledgment is lost and the second acknowledgment arrives after the first timeout interval. Draw a timing diagram, showing these segments and all other segments and acknowledgments sent. (Assume there is no additional packet loss.) For each segment in your figure, provide the sequence number and the number of bytes of data; for each acknowledgment that you add, provide the acknowledgment number.
