Assignment 5 - Network Layer

The document discusses IP addressing and routing concepts. It provides example IP addresses, describes differences between IPv4 and IPv6 such as header size and features, and defines terms like AS-PATH and NEXT-HOP which are used for routing between autonomous systems. It also gives examples of forwarding table entries that use longest prefix matching to route packets to different link interfaces based on the destination IP address.

R12 Answer: Yes, they do have IP address and it has one.

R13 Answer: 223.1.3.27 – 11011111 00000001 00000011 00011011

R17 Answer: It is decided by the protocol field in the IP datagram.

R19 Answer: IPv6 has a fixed header size of 40 bytes where as IPv4 does not have. Header

checksum, reassembly, and fragmentation are features of IPv4 but not of IPv6

The traffic class, payload length, next header, and hop limit in IPv6 are similar to

type of service, datagram length, upper-layer protocol, and time to live in IPv4.

R20 Answer: As the full IPv6 datagram is contained in an IPv4 datagram, IPv6 treats IPv4

tunnels as link-layer protocols when port forwarding over IPv4 routers. Hence, I

agree with the statement.

R23 Answer: No, it is not necessary as every as it has an administrative control for routing.

R30 Answer: The AS-PATH is started through router interface called NEXT-HOP. The IP address

of the first router id through the advertised path received by the external AS for a

given prefix, is provided by the NEXT-HOP feature. It is also used when forwarding

table of the first router is established.

R33 Answer: a) Controlled Flooding - True

Uncontrolled Flooding – True

Spanning Trees - False

b) Controlled Flooding - False

Uncontrolled Flooding – True

Spanning Trees – False


R36 Answer: Group-shared: The multicast is shared over the single routing tree.

Source based: It has multiple individual tress to a multicast group and

multicast packets without hosts.

P10 Answer: a forwarding table that has five entries, uses longest prefix match- ing, and forwards
packets to the correct link interfaces.

b. determines the appropriate link inter- face for datagrams with destination addresses:

11001000, 10010001 01010001, 01010101

11100001 01000000 11000011 00111100

11100001 10000000 00010001 01110111

P11 Answer: 64 addresses in each range.

P 15 Answer : The number of significant bits used to identify a network.

Identify hosts are remaining 32-n bits. The network prefix defined is \x

Range of Destination address Link interface

224.0.0.0/10 0

224.64.0.0/16 1

224.65.0.0/7 2

Otherwise 3
