Question

what is the subnet mask of the IP address...University of massachusetts lowell intro to data communication homework 3

7. In the slow start phase of the TCP congestion control algorithm, the size of the congestion window (a) does not increase (b) increases linearly (c) increases exponentially 8. Consider a TCP congestion control scheme that uses the slow-start and congestion avoidance schemes with a slow-start threshold ssthresh - 8 and a round-trip delay of 1 time unit. (This means that if an ACK is not received 1 time unit after a segment is transmitted, a retransmission of the segment will be take place.) Assume that ACKs are received within the timeout period up to the 4th time unit and after that time a timeout occurs. Plot the growth of the congestion window (cwnd) up to the 8th time unit

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

The first question is done as per Chegg guidelines, please repost others.

7)

The window size in slow start increases exponentially.

Explanation:

Based on the number of segments which is being acknowledged the window size increases exponentially till the time when the acknowledgment is stopped coming then the window size decrease.
