Assume that the 139.179.192.0/18 address block is given to you for this purpose. Use the following table to show the addresses of the five subnets that you created.

Consider
a
graph
G(V,E), where V is the set
of nodes and E is the set of edges (links). For
, let represent the weight of link . Assume that each link weight corresponds to the probability that the link is operational and that the probability that a path is operational is given by the product of the weights of the links constituting the path. Your task is to find the most reliable path between each node pair. Assume that an implementation of the Dijkstra’s algorithm that computes the least cost path (path with the smallest sum of weights) between any pair of nodes in the graph is available to you as a black box. You cannot make any changes in the given code. Describe how you can use the implementation of the Dijkstra’s algorithm to compute the most reliable paths in the network, i.e., the path with the smallest product of weights between each node pair. Justify that your solution correctly computes the paths with the highest probability of operation as defined above.

The network below uses the distance-vector routing algorithm. Assume the following:
Links have the same cost in both directions.
Nodes exchange their routing info once every second, in perfect synchrony and with negligible transmission delays. Specifically, at every t = i, i = 0, 1, 2, 3,…, each node sends and receives routing info instantaneously, and updates its routing table; the update is completed by time t=i+0.1.
At time t = 0, the link costs are as shown below and the routing tables have been stabilized. At time t = 0.5, the cost of the link (3,4) becomes 7. There are no further link cost changes.
Route advertisements are only exchanged periodically, i.e., there are no immediate route advertisements after a link cost change. Hence the first route advertisement after the link cost change at t = 0.5 sec occurs at t = 1.0 sec. Note: However, whenever a link cost change occurs, the two nodes at the endpoints of this link immediately make corresponding changes in their distance tables.
Assume that the distance vector algorithm does not use poisoned reverse.

Consider an Ethernet LAN using CSMA/CD running at 100 Mbits/sec. The propagation speed for the signal over the cable is 2×108 m/sec. The distances between the nodes in this Ethernet are given in the following table. Ignoring the jamming signal, compute the minimum frame size in Bytes so that the CSMA/CD algorithm will work properly for this LAN.

Consider three nodes A, B and C on a 100 Mbits/sec Ethernet. Suppose these three nodes are involved in a collision which is the third collision for A’s frame, fourth collision for B’s frame and second collision for C’s frame. After the collision is detected (we assume that all nodes detect the collision exactly at the same time), nodes calculate their backoff times according to the binary exponential backoff algorithm.

Consider two nodes A and B on a shared link, and both nodes need to transmit frames to node C, which is also on the same broadcast link. Assume that there are no other nodes on the shared link that currently want to transmit packets. Assume that we use the Slotted Aloha protocol. Suppose that a collision just occurred at time t, when A and B transmitted in the same slot.

In this part, assume that each node retransmits the collided frame with probability p in each successive slot after t. Express the probability of having a successful time slot in terms of p. Find the optimum value of p, which maximizes the probability of a successful slot, and the resulting maximum value for probability of a successful time slot.
