"PLEASE DO NOT COPY FROM THE INTERNET" Suppose a computer sends a packet at network layer to another computer somewhere in the internet. The logical destination address of a packet is corrupted during the transmission. What happens to the packet? How will source computer understand status of packet? How will the destination computer receive the packet?
Let's imagine that a computer on the Internet transmits a packet to another computer at the network layer. The logical destination address of the packet has encountered an issue. What address should I use for the package? How will the original computer know when this happens?
Assume a computer transmits a packet to another computer on the Internet at the network layer. The packet's logical destination address has been corrupted. Where does the package go? How will the situation be communicated to the source computer?
Assume a computer transmits a packet to another computer on the Internet at the network layer. The packet's logical destination address has been tampered with. Where does the packet end up? How will the situation be communicated to the source computer?
Draw a NAT Table Entry at the Router for the Computer (A) (shown with a smiley face J) trying to reach the Web Server (listening at Port 80) as shown. You may use dynamic port numbers.
7.1 In IEEE 802.11, open system authentication is accomplished via a simple two-way communication. The client requests authentication, which includes the station ID, which is provided by the server (typically the MAC address). A successful or unsuccessful authentication response from the AP/router is received in response to the previous request from the client. For instance, if the client's MAC address has been expressly omitted from the AP/router setup, a failure may occur.a. What are the advantages of using this kind of authentication scheme?b. What are the security flaws in this authentication method and how may they be mitigated?
Suppose a computer sends a frame to another computer on a bus topology LAN. The physical destination address of the frame is corrupted during the transmission. What happens to the frame? How can the sender be informed about the situation? Suppose a computer sends a packet at the network layer to another computer somewhere in the Internet. The logical destination address of the packet is cor- rupted. What happens to the packet? How can the source computer be informed of the situation?
A router receives a packet with destination address 205.12.48.91 Show how it finds the network and the subnetwork address to route the packet. Assume the number of subnetwork required is four.
Assume a TCP sender sends four packets of size 1024 bytes, carrying bytes 0-4095. If the second packet is lost, what is the content of the Acknowledgement field sent in response to the third packet? (If you think that no acknowledgement is sent, for example because the third packet is out of order, then answer -1.)
For NAT Network Address Translation Scenario: Jenny Bello is a small business owner selling and making customized computer peripherals. She has been finding it difficult to track her sales and inventories, however recently after an expert's advice, she adopted a Point of Sale (PoS) server. So, she can now track her sales and inventories at the store. However, she ran into another issue, the server can only be accessed within the store, because it has been assigned a private IPv4 address, it is not publicly accessible via the Internet. a) Why is not having the PoS server accessible over the Internet a problem for the business? b) What caused this problem? c) Propose a solution for the problem and explain how the solution works.
Consider a scenario in which a computer sends a packet to another computer on the Internet at the network layer. The destination address of the packet has been tampered with. Where is the package addressed? How will the situation be sent to the source computer?
DNS makes use of UDP rather than TCP. If a DNS packet is dropped, there is no way to recover automatically. Is this a problem, and if so, how does one go about resolving it?
