For an IP address 191.54.38.207 with netmask 255.255.0.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.224 what is the number of hosts per subnet?

So, host part is 5 bits Total hosts = 2^5 -2 = 30 30 hosts

What is the difference between TCP congestion control and flow control?

TCP congestion control makes sure the network bandwidth/capacity is not overwhelmed by the sender's transmission rate while TCP flow control makes sure the receiver buffer is not overwhelmed by the sender's transmission rate.

Which protocol helps us in managing multicasting

UDP

network layer

1GB/S data rate is equivalent to

1000 Mb/S

Explain why Wi-Fi protocol cannot use CSMA/CD.

A wireless antenna (technically speaking transceiver) cannot send and receive at the same time. It seems like you are doing both at one time but that's thanks to the speed factor (switching between TX and RX rapidly). Signal as well

6. [3] What are the differences between TCP Congestion control and TCP flow control?

Congestion control is a method of ensuring that every TCP transmitter is accessing the network in a "fair" way without congesting or overwhelming the network links flow control is a method of ensuring that every TCP transmitter is transmitting in a "fair" way without congesting or overwhelming the TCP receivers' buffer

A. You want to implement a mechanism that automates the IP configuration, including IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS information. Which protocol will you use to accomplish this?

DHCP

Why do HTTP, SMTP and FTP require TCP as underneath transport layer process while DNS uses UDP as underneath transport layer process?

HTTP, SMTP, FTP require reliable packet transfer service. They are NOT "so called best effort service". TCP provides that reliability through transmission/ACK and retransmissions. DNS is a best effort service protocol. As a result, DNS is satisfied with UDP. DNS requests have explicit responses in the application layer itself. So no other acknowledgement is necessary at transport layer.

What is the difference between iterative and recursive DNS query?

Iterative: Burden of name resolution on local DNS server Recursive: Burden of name resolution on contacted name server (either local or root or TLD or authoritative based on who is contacted)

For an IP address 191.54.38.207 with netmask 255.255.0.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.224 what is the max total number of subnets?

Network part 16 bits Rest = 16 bits Out of that, subnet part = 11 bits So, host part is 5 bits Total subnets = 2^11 = 2048 2048 subnets

2. [2+1=3] What are the four components of delay in networking? Why does packet loss happen?

Nodal Processing, Queuing, Transmission and Propagation delay Router queue (aka buffer) has finite capacity. Packets arriving to full queue will be dropped resulting in packet loss. Packet loss can also happen due to link failure or node failure.

Why the protocol of reliability is introduced in layer 2 (link layer) in the network protocol stack even though it is already implemented in layer 4 (transport layer) through TCP? What is the significance of ARP protocol?

Reliability is exposed in end to end only, and will take a long amount of time for A->B to realize it has been successful. It will take much more time than if there are multiple routers or switches to detect failure. ARP discovers link layer address.

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement?

Routers examine packets at application layer.

What is wireshark in promiscuous mode?

Wireshark will pick up packets not meant for your computer, but only your subnet. Everthing must be near the collision domain.

What are the technical Implications of wireshark?

You can understand the packet format by using wireshark, giving a visual representation of what constitutes a packet, to determine payload, link layer, etc. Drawbacks are, due to it's nature, with malicious intent you can sniff packets. Legal implication is you can be exposed to someone else's data without you being aware that it was sensitive.
