Part 2: Short Questions [70] All questions carry equal marks (10)
1. Consider a three-layer protocol. The layers from top to bottom are application, transport, and network. All
layers use headers, and the transport layer also uses a trailer. Sketch a packet showing headers and trailers
for this protocol.

2. Which address does a NIC use when deciding whether to accept a frame?

3. Assuming that a PSTN has a bandwidth of 3000Hz and a typical signal-to-noise power ratio of 20 dB,
determine the maximum theoretical information (data) rate that can be achieved.

4. We have a channel with 5kHz bandwidth. If we want to send data at 150 Kbps, what is the minimum SNR dB?
What is SNR?

5. Two nodes were communicating a while ago, but after some time, communication got stopped; how
connectivity or link between the nodes can be checked.

6. Network performance is often measured through throughput and latency (delay), so these two criteria are
often contradictory.

7. The following data fragment occurs in the middle of a data stream for which the character stuffing algorithm
described in the text is used:
ETX , ESC , A , ESC , B , ETX , ETX. What is the output after stuffing?
