Assume you're sending a packet via the OSI Network Model. Explain how a router, gateway, and switch operate. If you have a problem with poor signals during transmission, which device will you use? Also, specify which level of the OSI model these devices will operate at. Transmission degradation is caused by attenuation, distortion, and noise. What is the answer or how can these issues be improved?

A data channel at 5 Gbps is shared by two users. Assume that each user is transmitting at 2.5Gbps data rate continuously. Each user only transmits only 30% of the time. (a) If circuit switching is used, how many users can be supported? (b) If packet switching is used, would there be queuing delay to accommodate these two users? If a third identical user is added will there be a queuing delay? (c) What is the probability that a user is sending data? (d) Now assume three users under packet switching. Compute the probability that at any given time all three are transmitting at the same time. What is the fraction of time when the queue is growing?
What is the delay of sending a data file from a source station to a destination station? Suppose that the length of the data file is 2 Mbytes and the bandwidth of the channel is 1600 bps, and the network link between the sender and receiver is 20000 Km and the speed of the light inside the link is 2x108 meters/second? Assume that the delay is composed of only transmission time and propagation time.
Sliding Window Algorithms This question considers a sliding window implementation across a full-duplex point-to-point link. The link has a bandwidth of 327 kbps in each direction and a one-way propagation delay of 100 milliseconds. All packets sent across the link are 1,024 bytes long, including all headers and trailers. What send window size (SWS) is necessary to fully utilize the network?
An entry in the switching table of a virtual-circuit network is normally created during the setup phase and deleted during the teardown phase. In other words, the entries in this type of network reflect the current connections, the activity in the network. In contrast, the entries in a routing table of a datagram network do not depend on the current connections; they show the configuration of the network and how any packet should be routed to a final destination. The entries may remain the same even if there is no activity in the network. The routing tables, however, are updated if there are changes in the network. Can you explain the reason for these two different characteristics? Can we say that a virtual-circuit is a connection oriented network and a datagram network is a connectionless network because of the above characteristics?
Calculate the latency (from first bit sent to last bit received) for: (a) 1-Gbps Ethernet with a single store-and-forward switch in the path and a packet size of 5000 bits. Assume that each link introduces a propagation delay of 10 us and that the switch begins retransmitting immediately after it has finished receiving the packet. (b) Same as (a) but with three switches. (c) Same as (b), but assume the switch implements "cut- through" switching; it is able to begin retransmitting the packet after the first 128 bits have been received.
A 1 Mbps link is used to transfer packets of each 10,000 bits long. This includes 500 bits header. If the channel is error free and 270 msec is the signal propagation time from the source to destination, obtain the efficiency for, (1) Stop and wait protocol. (i) Sliding window protocol with window size of 500. (iii) Sliding window protocol with window size of 10.
5)Consider a reliable data transfer protocol that uses only negative acknowledgments. Suppose the sender sends data only infrequently. Would a NAK-only protocol be preferable to a protocol that uses ACKS? Why? Now suppose the sender has a lot of data to send and the end-to-end connection experiences few losses. In this second case, would a NAK-only protocol be preferable to a protocol that uses ACKS? Why?
If each packet is 50KB and the transmission rate between sender and receiver is 1Gbps with a propagation delay of 10 msec, then what would be the utilization of stop and wait at the sender? What would be the throughput of this network? If the stop and wait is changed to a 10-packet pipelining at the sender. How does this change the sender and throughput of the network? What are demanded conditions that must be met by the sender to support this pipelining?

Channel utilization with pipelining. Suppose a packet is 10K bits long, the channel transmission rate connecting a sender and receiver is 10 Mbps, and the round-trip propagation delay is 10 ms.
