Suppose an IP packet is fragmented into 10 fragments, each with a 1% (independent) probability of loss. To a reasonable approxim

ation, this means there is a 10% chance of losing the whole packet due to loss of a fragment. What is the probability of net loss of the whole packet if the packet is transmitted twice?
a. assuming all fragments received must have been part of the same transmission?
b. assuming any given fragment may have been part of either transmission?
c. explain how use of the IDENT field might be applicable here.

Answer:

a. 0.01

b. 0.001

c. The identification field of the packet fragment can be used to uniquely identify and collate the fragments lost in transmission.

Explanation:

The probability of losing a packet is 10% or 0.1, so the probability of losing the packet twice during transmission;

= 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01

When any fragments have been part of the transmission, the probability of the packet is dependent on the fragments;

= 0.01 x 0.1 = 0.001

The identification field is a unique 16-bit value assigned to an IPv4 packet, when a packet is fragmented for transmission, its field is used to collate the unique fragments in the packet.

Answer:

A. The proposed solution delivers the required result and both optional desired results.

Explanation:

The IEEE 802.11a is the standard code of the wireless communication technology known as WIFI, it is wireless as it requires no cable to connect to a network device. The data transmission rate of the IEEE 802.11a is 1.5 - 54Mbps (mega bit per second). So, the employees in the TVBCA building can wireless connect to the network, which allows them to be mobile and they can also send large CAD files among themselves.
