1.

You work for a large communications corporation named GlobeComm which has been
assigned a Class A network address. Currently, the company has 1,000 subnets in
offices around the world. You want to add 100 new subnets over the next three years,
and you want to allow for the largest possible number of host addresses per subnet.
Which subnet mask would you choose?
Ans: requirement = 1000 subnets + 100 subnets
= 1100 subnets
11
2 = 2048 – 2 = 2046 usable subnets
Defaultclass A subnet mask= 255.0.0.0
= 11111111 00000000 00000000 00000000

Class A subnet maskwith our = 255.255.224.0


11 bits of subnetting
= 11111111 11111111 11100000 00000000

2. You have been asked to create a subnet mask for the 172.16.0.0 network. Your
organization requires 900 subnets, with at least 50 hosts per subnet. What subnet
mask should you use?

Ans: required = 900 subnets


Host = 50 per subnet
210= 1024
As it is class C so, Subnet Mask = 255.255.0.0
= 11111111.1111111.0.0
Borrow 10 bits so, subnet mask = 255.255.255.192 / 26
= 11111111.1111111.1111111.11000000
The subnet mask is 255.255.255.192 or /26 which means there are 6 bits remaining for
hosts26 = 64
64-2 = 62 valid hosts per subnet, which meets the requirements
Our subnet mask is 255.255.255.192. Giving us 1024 subnets and 62 hosts per subnet.
3. Consider the following scenario
Number of needed subnets: 6
Number of needed usable hosts: 30
Network Address: 195.85.8.0

Answer the following


a) Address class
Ans: Class C
b) Default subnet mask
Ans: 255.255.255.0
c) Custom subnet mask
Ans: 255.255.255.224
d) Total number of subnets
Ans: 23 = 8
e) Total number of host addresses
Ans: 23Class C so, 24 bits is on 24+3 = 27 32-27 = 5 25
f) Number of usable addresses
Ans: 25 32-2 30
g) Number of bits borrowed
Ans: 3 bits

5. In Stop and wait protocol, assume every 3rd packet is lost and we need to send total
20 packets so how many transmissions it took to send all the packets?
Ans: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 (Initially)
1 2 3 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 3 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 5 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 7 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 9 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 11 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 13 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 15 16 17 18 19 20(Packet 15 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 17 18 19 20(Packet 17 retransmitted)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 19 20(Packet 19 retransmitted)

We transmitted packet no. 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19


Total count = 29

6. In GBN protocol, assume sender Window size = 15 and Tp = 79.5ms & Tt = 10ms. What
is the Efficiency of the protocol and Throughput given Bandwidth = 100 bps?

Ans: Window size = 15


Tp = 79.5ms
Tt = 10ms.
Bandwidth = 100 bps
Efficiency =?
Throughput =?

Efficiency = N/(1+2a)
A = Tp/Tt
= 79.5/10
= 7.95
Efficiency = 15/(1+2 (7.95))
= 0.88
Throughput = Efficiency x Bandwidth
= 0.88 x 100
= 88

7. Host A receives a datagram of size 5500 bytes from its transport layer along with an IP
header of length 20 bytes. The datagram is sent to host B having router with a
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of 1000 bytes. Apply process of Fragmentation.
Ans:
5500 20
Data IP header
Number of packet fragments = (Total size of packet / MTU )
= 5520 / 1000
= 5.52
=6
So,Datagram with data 5500 byte fragmented into 6 fragments
