Chapter 6, Problem R12RQ
Program Plan Intro
ARP:
- It is called as Address Resolution Protocol that is used by the Internet Protocol in order to map IP network address.
- It operates below the network layer.
- It is a protocol whose queries are encapsulated by a link layer protocol. It is usually communicated within a single network.
MAC address:
- It is called as Media Access Control address.
- It is a unique number used to build communication at the link layer. MAC address is assigned to a Network Interface Controller (NIC).
- It is also used as a network address.
- The size of a MAC address space is 48 bits (248 in size).

As another example, consider a circuit-switched network that connects computers in two remote offices of a private company. The offices are connected using a T-1 line leased from a communication service provider. There are two 4 × 8 (4 inputs and 8 outputs) switches in this network. For each switch, four output ports are folded into the input ports to allow communication between computers in the same office. Four other output ports allow communication between the two offices. Figure shows the situation
The minimum number of columns in a datagram network is two; the minimumnumber of columns in a virtual-circuit network is four. Can you explain thereason? Is the difference related to the type of addresses carried in the packetsof each network?
Is it the case or not? Consider a TCP connection where the most recent SampleRTT was 1 second. The current TimeoutInterval setting for the connection must be larger than one second.
