What is meant by a "dynamic leased IP address"
1. We call it dynamic because each time when you connect to the network, the IP add may change (ie., assign an IP address at run time by the DHCP server). 2. We call it leased because each dynamic IP address has a certain time period. When time expires, the IP add will return to the IP address pool unless the leased is renewed

IP addressing
Discuss how fragmentation helps in minimizing the transmission overhead.
Instead of sending the large message of 5000 Bytes, you decided to fragment the message into smaller packets. For example, you divide then in 10 smaller message each one containing only 500 Bytes. In this case, it is likely that only one Fragment (Packet) or 2 two packets will be in error (not the entire message of 5000 Bytes). That is only Packet 4 need to be retransmitted (i.e., 500 Bytes).

Discuss how the use of fragmentation maximizes the advantages of multiplexing
It maximizes the advantages of multiplexing by sending small size data packets and therefore not one user can occupy the channel for a longer period of time, which will also improve the "fairness" in the network environment (i.e., every users is getting an equal chance to transmit the data using the shared multiplexed channel).

What is multiplexing?
Multiplexing: Another reason for transmitted small fragments over a communication channel is to maximize the multiplexing. What Multiplexing means - a single communication channel is shared among multiple users so that every user can transmit data simultaneously. However, when multiple users share a common channel, there should be some method to avoid collision. For that, we have different multiplexing schemes: FDM, TDM, SDM, CDM.
NAT stands for

______________ is used by HTTP to establish a secure/reliable connection between 2 hosts.
TCP
What messages are exchanged during the three way handshake protocol
TCP will use its Three-Way Handshake Protocol to establish a Connection. a. Source Host will send the Connection Request (in TCP Packet with SYN Bit set to 1 - this will indicate that source host wants to establish a connection with the Starting Sequence Number). b. Server will send the +ACK in response to the SYN packet. Will also send its expected Sequence Number in the SYN bit. So the following message will be sent SYN, ACK c. Finally, the Source Host will send the ACK to acknowledge the received SYN bit from the Server. Once, we are done with this, HTTP Request will arrive at the Server. Server will get back to the Source Host with the desired page.
Discuss the differences between TCP and UDP. Give an example to show which protocol should be used for different applications.
