Problem 5 A Gigabit Ethernet station has a number of frames that are buffered and waiting to be sent over the Ethernet channel as shown below. Frame 1 = 100 octets Frame 2 = 1518 octets Frame 3 = 1518 octets Frame 4 = 100 octets Frame 5 = 1200 octets Frame 6 = 1200 octets Frame 7 = 100 octets Frame 8 = 1518 octets Frame 9 = 1518 octets Frame 10 = 1200 octets Frame 11 = 1518 octets Frame 12 = 1000 octets

If an application uses UDP to send an 8K byte message across an Ethernet, how many frames will traverse the network? Explain.

A packet switch receives a packet and determines the outbound link to which the packet should be forwarded. When the packet arrives, one other packet is halfway done being transmitted on this outbound link and four other packets are waiting to be transmitted. Packets are transmitted in order of arrival. Suppose all packets are 1,500 bytes and the link rate is 2.5 Mbps. What is the queuing delay for the packet? More generally, what is the queuing delay when all packets have length 2L, the transmission rate is R, and x bits of the currently-being-transmitted packet have been transmitted?

Suppose you transfer 16 bytes of data in each Ethernet packet on your 10 Mbit/s network. What will be your effective data rate if you can use all the bandwidth yourself? Group of answer options: 10 Mbit/s 5 Mbit/s 2.5 Mbit/s Since an Ethernet packet must have a minimum size, I cannot send packets with so little data.
