Determine the number of cache sets (S), tag bits (t), set index bits (s), and block offset bits (b) for a 4096-byte cache using 32-bit memory addresses, 8-byte cache blocks and a 8-way associative design. The cache has :

Cache size = 1024 bytes, sets t = 26.8, tag bits, s = 3.2, set index bit =2

Answer:

Check below for explanations

Explanation:

Cache size = 4096 bytes = 2¹² bytes

Memory address bit = 32

Block size = 8 bytes = 2³ bytes

Cache line = (cache size)/(Block size)

Cache line = $\frac{2^{12} }{2^{3} }$

Cache line = 2⁹

Block offset = 3 (From 2³)

Tag = (Memory address bit - block offset - Cache line bit)

Tag = (32 - 3 - 9)

Tag = 20

Total number of sets = 2⁹ = 512

A network administrator is reviewing a network design that uses a fixed configuration enterprise router that supports both LAN a

tester [92]

Answer:

a modular router

Explanation:

A modular router is a type of router that will provide multiple slots, this will enable the network engineer to either change or increase the number of space the router has.

A layer 3 switch cannot provide a WAN connectivity even though it can increase the number of ports on a router. The concept of PoE capability of any device have nothing to do with the number of ports it has. If the Engineer decides to use another fixed configuration router it will still lead to the same problem in the future because it cannot guarantee or provide the flexibility of future growth adaptation which can be given by a modular router if put in use.
