Chapter I What is the differenee between a host and an end system? List the types of end systems. Is a Web server an end system? What is a client program? What is a server program? Does a server program request and receive services from a clie nt program? List six access tech no logies. Classify each one as reside ntial access, compa ny access, or mobile access. Dial-up modems,HFC, and DSLare all used for residential access. For each of these access tech no logies, provide a range of tran smissi on rates and comme nt on whether the tra nsmissi on rate is shared or dedicated. Describe the most popular wireless Internet access tech no logies today. Compare and con trast them. What advantage does a circuit-switched network have over a packet-switched n etwork? What adva ntages does TDM have over FDM in a circuit-switched n etwork? Consider sending a packet from a source host to a destination host over a fixed route. List the delay comp onents in the en d-to-e nd delay. Which of these delays are con sta nt and which are variable? How long does it take a packet of length 2,000 bytes to propagate over a link of distanee 2,000 km, propagation speed 2 108 m/s, and tra nsmissi on rate 2 Mbps? More gen erally, how long does it take a packet of len gth L to propagate over a link of dista nee d, propagati on speed s, and transmission rate R bps? Does this delay depend on packet length? Does this delay depe nd on tran smissi on rate? What are the five layers in the In ter net protocol stack? What are the pri ncipal resp on sibilities of each of these layers? Which layers in the Internet protocol stack does a router process? Which layers does a link-layer switch process? Which layers does a host process? What is an application-layer message? A transport-layer segment? A n etwork-layer datagram? A lin k-layer frame? This eleme ntary problem beg ins to explore propagatio n delay and transmission delay, two central concepts in data networking. Consider two hosts, A and B, conn ected
