a.

Program Plan Intro

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.

Given consideration:

Consider that the switch is placed between Subnet 1 and Subnet 2, and the Router between them is named as R1.

b.

Explanation of Solution

Given: Consider the Host E needs to send a datagram to the Host B. Also, The Host E’s ARP cache does not holds B’s MAC address.

To find:

  • Will the Host E execute ARP query to find the Host B’s MAC address.
  • Source and destination IP and MAC addresses of the Ethernet frame that contains the IP datagram destined to B.

Solution:

No”, the Host E do not executed ARP query to find out the MAC address of the Host B because, they are not on the common LAN...

c.

Explanation of Solution

Solution:

Actions of the switch S1:

The Switch 1 (S1) will program the Ethernet frame through its interfaces. The received ARP frame’s destination address is the broadcast address. It finds out that the Host A lives on Subnet 1 which is connected to the switch S1. The Switch S1 will then update its forwarding table to get an entry for Host A.

Router receives ARP request message:

Yes”, the router R1 gets an ARP request message but this router will no forward the information to Subnet 3...

The maximum packet size (Maximum Transmission Unit or MTU) of an IP packet including IPv4 header on 100 Mbps Ethernet is usually set at 1500 bytes. A typical IPv4 header consists of 20 bytes, and a UDP header consists of 8 bytes. If we split up a file of 20,000,000 bytes so we can send it as a series of UDP payloads, how many IP packets do we have to send in order to transfer the entire file? Enter an integer number without formatting (no commas). Answer:

Enter an integer number without formatting (no commas). Answer: The MTU for IP packets on 100 Mbps Ethernet is typically set to 1500 bytes. A typical IPv4 header consists of 20 bytes, and a UDP header consists of 8 bytes. If we split up a file of 25,000,000 bytes so we can send it as a series of UDP payloads, how many bytes do we have to send at the network layer in order to transfer the entire file? Enter an integer number (no commas). Answer: You are sending a 27,000,000 byte file using UDP over IP over an Ethernet with MTU 1500 bytes. The Ethernet header is 14 bytes and the frame checksum is 4…
Consider the network depicted in the below figure. Suppose that router R1 receives a packet Pktl from host PC1. The length of packet Pktl is L = 25 Mbit. Router R1 takes 0.4 msec to determine the output link of packet Pktl. Packet Pktl is to be forwarded. through the output link to router R2. Packet Pktl waits 136 ms at the output link for transmission. The transmission link of the link between router R1 and router R2 is R = 5 Mbps. The distance between router R1 and router R2 is 400 Km and the propagation speed over the link is 2*108 m/s. PC1 a. b router R2. R1 R2 R3 Find the queuing delay of packet Pktl at router R1. Find the propagation delay of packet Pktl over the link from router R1 to
