DPP 02 Discussion Notes
[MCQ]
#Q. A packet has arrived with an MF(More fragments) bit value of 1. Is this the first
fragment, the last fragment, or a middle fragment?
A First fragment
B Last fragment
C Middle fragment
D More information required
[MCQ]
#Q. In an IPV4 packet, the value of the HLEN field is 1100 in binary. How many
bytes of options field is being carried by this packet?
A 28 byte
B 20 byte
C 8 byte
D 40 byte
[MCQ]
#Q. What is the maximum payload size at the Network layer and the Data link layer
on the TCP/IP protocol?
A Any size, 1480 bytes
B 65,495 bytes, 1500 bytes
C 65,535 bytes, 1500 bytes
D 65,515 bytes, 1500 bytes
[MCQ]
#Q. Consider an IP link with a maximum transfer unit of 700 bytes, and each
datagram size to send is 2400 bytes. Assume that the datagram recently sent
has an identification number of 422. What is the total number of fragments
that must be sent to transfer the full datagram, and what is the offset value of
the 2nd fragment from all the fragmented datagrams? Note: Consider the
minimum header size of the IPV4 datagram.
A 4, 85
B 5, 680
C 4, 1320
D 1,0
[MSQ]
#Q. Which of the following assertions is/are TRUE about the Internet Protocol
(IP)?
A It is possible for a computer to have multiple IP addresses.
IP packets from the same source to the same destination can take different
B routes in the network.
IP ensures that a packet is discarded if it is unable to reach its destination
C
within a given within a gi number of hops.
The packet source cannot set the route of an outgoing packets; the route is
D determined only by the routing tables in the routers on the way.
[MCQ]
#Q. Suppose a packet of 1800 bytes with minimum header size enters a local area
network with an MTU (Maximum transfer unit) of 500 bytes. Then, how many
fragments will be generated from the packet, and what is the payload size of
the last packet?
A 3, 300
B 4, 340
C 5, 320
D 3, 340
[MCQ]
#Q. If the value in the HLEN field of the IP header is 8, then what is the header's
length?
A 8 bytes
B 16 bytes
C 32 bytes
D 40 bytes
[MCQ]
#Q. A TCP message consisting of 2800 bytes is passed to IP for delivery across two
networks. The first network can carry a maximum payload of 1500 bytes per
frame, and the second network can carry a maximum payload of 500 bytes per
frame, excluding network overhead. Assume that the IP overhead per packet is
20 bytes. What is the total IP overhead in the second network for this
transmission?
A 140 bytes
B 80 bytes
C 120 bytes
D 160 bytes
