Fifth Semester

CS8581 - NETWORKs LABORATORY

(Regulations 2017)

Time : 3 Hours Answer any one Question Max. Marks 100

1. a) Write a program to implement Chat application using TCP. (50)

b) Simulate Ethernet protocol and Examine the contents of a frame sent by the data-link (40)
layer. We want to find the value of different fields such as destination and source MAC
addresses, the value of CRC, the value of the protocol field which shows which payload
is being carried by the frame, and so on.

2. a) Write a code simulating RARP protocols. (50)

b) Simulate ARP protocols and Examine the contents of a frame sent by the data-link (40)
layer. We want to find the value of different fields such as destination and source MAC
addresses, the value of CRC, the value of the protocol field which shows which payload
is being carried by the frame, and so on.

3. a) Write a code simulating ARP protocols. (50)

b) Write a program to implement SNMP using TCP socket. 40

4. a) Write and test a program that simulates the byte stuffing and byte unstuffing. (50)

b) Use a network simulator to capture and investigate some packets exchanged at the (40)
network layer.

5. a) Write and test a program that simulates the bit stuffing and bit unstuffing. (50)

b) Investigate IP protocol by capturing and IP datagrams using network simulator. (40)

6. a) Write a program to implement DNS using UDP socket (50)

b) Investigate ICMPv4 protocol by capturing ICMPv4 packets generated by other (40)

utility programs such as ping and traceroute.

7. a) Write a program to implement SNMP using UDP socket (50)

b) Use network simulator to capture and investigate any application layer (40)

9. a) Write a program to implement DNS using TCP socket (50)

b) Use network simulator to capture and investigate FTP . (40)

10. a) Write a program to implement File Transfer using TCP. (50)

b) Use network simulator to capture and investigate TELNET. (40)

11. a) Write a program to find the class of a given address in dotted decimal notation. (50)

b) Use network simulator to capture and investigate SMTP,. (40)

12. a) Write a program to find the first and the last address in a block given any addresses in (50)
the block and assuming classless addressing.

b) Simulate of Congestion Control Algorithms using NS. (40)

13. a) Write a program to simulate the action of forwarding in a router given the routing table (50)
and the destination address of a packet. The program should find the outgoing user
interface.
