Question 2
Which of the following statements about IPV4 fragmentation is/are true?
The fragmentation of the IP datagram is performed only at the source of the datagram.
Fragmentation of IP datagram is performed at only the IP router which finds that the size of the datagram to be transmitted exceeds the MTU.
The reassembly of fragments is performed at all intermediate routers along the path from the source to the destination.
The reassembly of fragments is performed only at the destination of the datagram.
Question 3
Consider a computer with a 4MHz processor. If DMA controller can transfer 8 bytes in 1 cycle from a device to the main memory through cycle stealing at regular intervals.

Question 4
Node X has a TCP connection open to node Y. The packets from X to Y go through an intermediate IP router R. Ethernet switch S is the first switch on the network path between X and R. Consider a packet sent from X to Y over this connection. Which of the following statements is/are TRUE about the destination IP and MAC addresses on this packet at the time it leaves X?
The destination address is the MAC address of Y
The destination IP address is the IP address of R
The destination IP address is the IP address of Y
The destination MAC address is the MAC address of S
Question 5
