a.

Explanation of Solution

Figure 6.33:

The “Figure 6.33” contains:

  • Two routers.
  • Three switches (LAN).
  • Three subnets.
    • Each subnet contains two host computers.
    • Subnet 1 contains two hosts named “A” and “B”. Both the two hosts are connected through a same switch.
    • Subnet 2 contains two hosts named “C” and “D”. Both the two hosts are connected through a same switch.
    • Subnet 3 contains two hosts named “E” and “F”. Both the two hosts are connected through a same switch.

To find: Assigning IP address:

1. Consider the network depicted in Figure 1. Here, we have a sender, a receiver, and four routers. In this figure, capital letters specify the physical addresses of the devices and numbers specify the logical addresses of the devices. For example, the device marked as sender has a physical address A and logical address 5. Sender B/20 C/35 D/40 A/5 E/50 Receiver F/60 J/95 I/90 H/82 G/70, Figure 1: Network topology Similarly, the router connected to the sender has physical address B and logical address 20 for the interface that is connected to the sender. Now, consider that process Pi of the sending computer wants to send some data to process P2 of the receiving computer. Port addresses of process Pi and P2 are Px and Py, respectively. Show the contents of the segments, packets and frames for transport, network, and data link layers at the sender side of three hops with appropriate figures.
Refer to the figure below. The IP and MAC addresses are shown for nodes Petra and Bhoy, as well as for the router's interfaces. Consider an IP datagram being sent from node Petra to node Bhoy. Assume Petra knows the IP address of Bhoy and the IP and MAC addresss of the router. 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 (1), (3), and (5) in the figure. PETRA (1) network interface 10.0.3.234 BE-BE-FA-CE-CA-BA (2) 10.0.3.143 BA-DB-01-AD-DO-BO router (3) 10.0.32.64 FE-ED-DE-AD-BE-EF IP source, destination address: (3) Ethernet source, destination address: IP source, destination address: (5) Ethernet source, destination address: IP source, destination address: 10.0.32.245 CO-FF-EE-4D-BE-BE: layer-2 switch Kindly write your answer in this format on your answer sheet: (1) Ethernet source, destination address: (4) end host BHOY (5) INDAY
3. Consider a router that interconnects three subnets: Subnet 1, Subnet 2 and Subnet 3. Suppose all of the interfaces in each of these three subnets are required to have the prefix 223.1.17/24. Also suppose that Subnet I is required to support up to 62 interfaces, Subnet 2 is to support up to 106 interfaces and Subnet 3 is to support up to 15 interfaces. Provide three network addresses (of the form a.b.c.d/x) that satisfy these constraints.
