d. matching the communication capabilities fragmented packets

congestion control is related to

a. matching the communication capabilities of multiple nic cards

b. matching the communication capabilities in the network core

c. matching the communication capabilities of the end systems

d. matching the communication capabilities fragmented packets

Explanation / Answer

1. (C) matching the communication capabilities of the end systems

Explanation:-In data communications, flow control is the process of managing the rate of data transmission between two nodes(End System) to prevent a fast sender from overwhelming a slow receiver. It provides a mechanism for the receiver to control the transmission speed, so that the receiving node is not overwhelmed with data from transmitting node.

2.(b)Matching the communication capabilities in the network core

Explanation:-In data networking and queueing theory, network congestion occurs when a link or node is carrying so much data that its quality of service deteriorates. Typical effects include queueing delay, packet loss or the blocking of new connections. A consequence of these latter two is that an incremental increase in offered load leads either only to a small increase in network throughput, or to an actual reduction in network throughput.
