Consider two hosts P and Q connected through a router R. The maximum transfer unit (MTU) value of the link between P and R is 1500 bytes, and between R and Q is 820 bytes.

A TCP segment of size 1400 bytes was transferred from P to Q through R, with IP identification value as 0 × 1234. Assume that the IP header size is 20 bytes. Further, the packet is allowed to be fragmented i. e, Don't Fragment (DF) flag in the IP header is not set by P.

Which of the following statements is/are correct?

A
TCP destination port can be determined by analysing only the second fragement.
B
If the second fragment is lost, P is required to resend the whole TCP segment.
C
Two fragments are created at R and the IP datagram size carrying the second fragment is 620 bytes.
D
If the second fragment is lost, R will resend the fragment with the IP identification value 0 × 1234.

Consider the sliding window flow-control protocol operating between a sender and a receiver over a full-duplex error-free link. Assume the following:

1. The time taken for processing the data frame by the receiver is negligible.

2. The time taken for processing the acknowledgement frame by the sender is negligible.

3. The sender has infinite number of frames available for transmission.

4. The size of the data frame is 2,000 bits and the size of the acknowledgment frame is 10 bits.

5. The link data rate in each direction is 1 Mbps (= 106 bits per second).

6. One way propagation delay of the link is 100 milliseconds.

The minimum value of the sender's window size in terms of the number of frames, (rounded to the nearest integer) needed to achieve a link utilization of 50% is ______

A TCP server application is programmed to listen on port number P on host S. A TCP client connected to the TCP server over the network.

Consider that while the TCP connection was active, the server machine S crashed are rebooted. Assume that the client does not use the TCP keepalive timer.

Which of the following behaviours is/are possible?

A
If the client sends a packet after the server reboot, it will receive a RST segment.
B
If the client was waiting to receive a packet, it may wait indefinitely.
C
It the client sends a packet after the server reboot, it will receive a FIN segment.
D
The TCP server application on S can listen on P after reboot.

Consider a TCP connection between a client and a server with the following specifications: the round trip time is 6 ms, the size of the receiver advertised window is 50 KB, slow start threshold at the client is 32 KB, and the maximum segment size is 2 KB. The connection is established at time t = 0. Assume that there are no timeouts and errors during transmission.
Then the size of the congestion window (in KB) at time t + 60 ms after all acknowledgements are processed is ______.
