Internet Protocol (IP):

Internet protocol is a process or protocol in which data is transferred between the computer systems through internet. Each computer system has its own IP address to send or receive the required data.

Datagram:

  • In networking, a datagram is a transferring unit which is used to transfer the data from a source to the destination and it doesn’t provide guaranteed service.
  • It includes fragmentation process which is defined as the division of the data packet into small one when the data packets are larger than the maximum length of a particular system.

2. The network of Fig. 5-37 uses RSVP with multicast trees for hosts 1 and 2 as shown. Suppose that host 3 requests a channel of bandwidth 2 MB/sec for a flow from host 1 and another channel of bandwidth 1 MB/sec for a flow from host 2. At the same time, host 4 requests a channel of bandwidth 2 MB/sec for a flow from host 1 and host 5 requests a channel of bandwidth 1 MB/sec for a flow from host 2. How much total bandwidth will be reserved for these requests at routers A, B, C, E, H, J, K, and L? Senders 2 2 B. A A A D D. •F D •F Fig. 5-37 H. K 3 3 4 5 3 5 Receivers (a) (b) (c)
Problem 3 Consider the problem of deciding whether to implement a virtual- circuit or a datagram network. Assume a network protocol that allows the system to operate as either a virtual circuit network or a datagram network. That is, its packet header format is specified such that it incorporates both a VCI (Virtual Circuit Identifier) and an arbitrary source/destination addresses. When operating as a virtual circuit, it requires a 4-byte header. When operating as a datagram network, it requires a 40-byte header. Assume that there are 4 hops from source to destination, and that a set up or tear down request packet is 80 bytes (including the header). The total message length is 4096 bytes, the data rate is 9600 bps on all links and the packet size is 256 bytes (including the header). i) If we operate in the datagram mode, how long does it take for the first packet to reach the destination? If we operate in virtual-circuit mode, how long does it take for the first packet to reach the…
4) Host A and B are communicating over a TCP connection, and Host B has already received from A all bytes up through byte 130. 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 131, the source port number is 301, 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 are the sequence number, source port number, and destination port number? b. If the first segment arrives before the second segment, in the acknowledgment of the first arriving segment, what is the acknowledgment number, the source port number, and the destination port number? c. If the second segment arrives before the first segment, in the acknowledgment of the first arriving segment, what is the acknowledgment number?
