Answer:
(a) yes, this protocol allows only serializable schedules for transactions as due to this the system maintains it's consistency. As in this protocol a unique transaction id is being assigned and with the help of that transaction id the system would be able to identify the process which has taken place in what particular order. For example, in case of bank transfers
balance = 1000 transaction id 100
write ADD 200 transaction id 101
write SUB 1100 transaction id 102
write ADD 900 transaction id 103
in here with the help of transaction id we can check which operation has happened in which order, if not then some operation will not happen like 102 immediately after 100 and skipping 101
(b) the modified version of this protocol would be to also consider the time of transaction and take this factor in the consideration
Answer: b) R1 will connect to a physical Ethernet link, with the other end of the cable connected to a device at the WAN service provider point of presence.
.d) R1 will forward data link frames to R2 using an Ethernet header/trailer.
Explanation:
Here we have to understand what is MLPS. MLPS is a protocol which identifies the shortest route for the transfer of messages between routers instead of the longest route.
Here we are given a WAN which is a wide area network. Using layer 2 Ethernet service the frames are transmitted across the routers within the WAN.
Option A is incorrect as as connecting the other end of the cable to the R2 would reduce the functionality of the WAN. Option C is incorrect as HDLC header trailer has no effect.
Option B and D are correct as Ethernet header/ trailer has the same size every frame and to maintain the functionality of the WAN one end must be connected to point of presence(PoP).
