In a scenario when the IoT proxy has uplink connectivity, does the IoT LAN need global
addressing mandatorily?
a. Yes
b. No
c. Not applicable
Correct Answer: b. No
Detailed Solution: When the IoT proxy has uplink connectivity, it proxies communication
between the local IoT nodes and nodes in the external network. In this scenario, where all
communications go through a proxy, the IoT LAN does not need global addressing, but can
manage with link-local or ULA addresses, depending on the type of proxy.

not have the appropriate flow rule to forward this particular packet, whereas S1 has. Then with respect to
the two switches, what is the correct action that is taken.
Detailed Solution: If a switch does not have an appropriate flow rule to process an incoming
packet, it sends PACKET_IN message to the controller, whereas if the switch has the flow
rule, it simply forwards the packet as per the flow rule. Refer lectures 33 and 34.
