1. Describe the categorization of interconnected processors based on their scale,
accompanied by clear diagrams for each category. 2. Discuss the Protocol Hierarchies consisting of five layers, detailing the protocols and interfaces involved 3. What are some key design issues for the layers encountered in computer networks as information moves through different layers? 4. How does connectionless service differ from connection-oriented service, and what analogy is used to describe it? Explain it with six different types of service. 5. Describe the primitives associated with connection-oriented service and Explain the role of primitives like SEND, RECEIVE, and DISCONNECT in facilitating communication between client and server processes. 6. What is the OSI model? How many layers comprise the OSI model? Provide a clear diagram to illustrate its structure. 7. How did the TCP/IP Reference Model come into existence, and who were its primary architects? 8. What was the ARPANET, and who sponsored its development? What was one of the major design goals of the ARPANET's reference architecture? 9. Describe the TCP/IP protocol suite, accompanied by a clear diagram highlighting its distinctions from the OSI model. Illustrate the TCP/IP model by outlining the protocols associated with each layer. 10. What is the primary function of the physical layer in networking? How does the physical layer contribute to the transmission of data between machines? 11. What distinguishes guided media from unguided media in terms of transmission characteristics? 12. How are physical media categorized, and what are some examples of guided media? 13.
