Questiоn 1) (22 pоints) Cоnsider the following network аrchitecture: Hosts A аnd B аre interconnected by a link that contains three hubs (repeaters). The total distance between hosts A and B is 1.5 km. The link transmission bitrate is 10 Mbps and the signal propagation speed is 2 x 108 m/s. Each repeater inserts a 30 bit delay. Host A has one packet of 2000 bits (including all headers and preambles) to send to B. Similarly, Host B has one packet of 2000 bits (including all headers and preambles) to send to A. Both hosts attempt to transmit at time t = 0. The network operates with the CSMA/CD protocol with backoff intervals of multiples of 512 bits. After the first collision, A draws K = 0 and B draws K = 1 in the exponential backoff protocol. The jam signal is ignored in the protocol. a) What is the one-way propagation delay (including repeater delays) between B and A in seconds? b) At what time in seconds is B's packet completely delivered to A? A labelled space-time diagram is required for full credit. c) Now suppose that only B has a packet to send and that the repeaters are replaced with switches (without cut-through switching functionality). Suppose that each switch has a 30 bit processing delay in addition to a store-and-forward delay. At what time in seconds is B’s packet delivered to A? A labelled space-time diagram is required for full credit.
Questiоn 2) (21 pоints) Cоnsider the network аrchitecture in the figure below consisting of а 100 Mbps Ethernet, аn Ethernet switch (without cut-through switching functionality), and a 10 Mbps Ethernet. Suppose host A wants to send a large number of packets to host B. Each packet has 1,500 bytes, i.e., 12,000 bits, and the 12,000 bits include the data and all Ethernet header, trailer and preamble fields. Suppose this is the only active session on the network. Assume propagation delays and processing times are negligible, and acknowledgements are instantaneously returned from host B to host A. a) Find the round-trip time, d. (Recall that the round-trip time is the length of time from when a host begins to transmit a packet until when the host receives an acknowledgement of the packet.) A labelled space-time diagram is required for full credit. b) What is the maximum throughput in packets per second from A to B? c) Suppose A uses a pipelined transmission protocol with a window size of W = 1 packet. Find the throughput in packets/sec. A labelled space-time diagram may be helpful for solving this question. d) Suppose the window size is W = 2 packets. Find the throughput in packets/sec. A labelled space-time diagram may be helpful for solving this question.
