Unit 3, 4, 5 - Transport Layer, Network Layer, Datalink Layer

The document contains questions about various topics related to computer networking including transport layer protocols like TCP and UDP, network layer concepts like routing and forwarding, data link layer protocols like CSMA/CD, and questions related to error detection techniques like parity checks and CRC codes. Specifically, it asks about transport layer multiplexing and demultiplexing, TCP retransmission, port numbers, TCP flags, sequence and acknowledgement numbers, flow and error control, connection-oriented vs connectionless services, TCP vs UDP, congestion control, TCP handshake, header formats, and retransmission timers. For the network layer, it asks about routing, forwarding, IP addressing, fragmentation, DHCP, routing protocols, and switching fabrics. For the data link layer,
