Answer
A point-to-point network is a permanent link betwee

‘A point-to-point connection provides a dedicated
devices. 7
The dedicated link between two devices can
orsatellite link.
The entire capacity of the link is reserved for transmission b
devices.
A point-to-point network uses different types of topol
to connect two internet nodes. Pology (mesh or star)
Advantages of a point-to-point network :
1. Speeds : A point-to-point network usually use leased lines so the speeds
are guaranteed.
2 Control & Monitor : By using the same connection, it becomes easier
to monitor data usage across all sites.
3. Prioritise : Point-to-point leased lines allow you to prioritise certain
types of data making your connection fast and reliable.
4, Better Security : With broadband your data is going through a public
network, this increases the risk of it being intercepted. But with point to
points it's your own private networks, so you can transfer data securely. |
Disadvantages of a point-to-point network :
1. Distance: For geographically distant locations a point-to-point network |
becomes more expensive. [
2 Limited Connections : With a point to point you can only connect two
sites, which can be a disadvantage if you have multiple sites. ;
2 : see --to-poil twor!
4 Fragile: If one node stops working within the point-to point ne
then the whole system will stop working.

Quess. | Write a short note on Classless Inter-Domain
Routing
(CIDR).
Answer
1. Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) is a method for allocat;
addresses and for IP routing.
The Internet Engineering Task Force introduced CIDR in 1993
replace the previous classful network addressing architecture on th
Internet.
3, Its goal was to slow the growth of routing tables on routers across the
Internet, and to slow the rapid exhaustion of IPv4 addresses,
4. The objective of CIDR was to address scalability issues with classful P
addresses which are based on three classes - Class A, B, and C.
©
ing Ip
N
5. CIDR allows IP addresses to be variable and not bound by the siz
limitations of Classes A, B, and C.
6. Since it is not bound by Class, CIDR can organize IP addresses into
subnetworks independent of the value of the addresses themselves.
7. This is referred to as supernetting.

+ Inorder to transfer the packets from source to the destination, the
network layer must determine the best route through which packets
canbe transmitted.
1 The main job of the network layer is to provide the best route.
+ Routing provides this information.

the packets,

Direct Delivery:
Ina direct delivery the source and destination of the packet are jo,
cated
on the same physical network.
Also direct delivery occurs when the delivery is between the last rout,

and the destination host.
To determine if the delivery is direct we extract the network address of
e88 of
the destination (using the mask).
Then we compare this address with the addresses of the networks 1,
which it is connected. 0
Ifa match is found, the delivery is direct.
Indirect Delivery:
Ifthe source and destination of the packet are not located on the same
physical nétwork, the packet is delivered indirectly.
In an indirect delivery, the packet goes from router to router until it
reaches its final destination.
A delivery always involves one direct delivery but zero or more indirect
deliveries

A. Static routing :
Static routing is a process in which we have to manually add routes in

Static routes are manually configured by a network administrator by
adding in entries into a routing table.
Static routes are fixed and do not change if the network is changed or
reconfigured.

suitable diagrams.
Answer
1. In multicasting, a message from a sender is to be sent to a group ot
destinations but not all the destinations in a network.
2. A process has to send a message to all other processes in the group. For
asmall group it is possible to send a point-to-point message.
3. But this is expensive if the group is large. So, we have to send messsé=*
to a well defined group which are small compared to the network size
