  • Homework #2 : Due by Jan. 29
    • 1. Who does exchange ARP messages and when they do that?
    • 2. Obtain an IP datagram from your local network and explain the format of IP datagram based on it.
    • 3. What is the MTU size for Ethernet and why is it required? What are the related fields in IP datagram and how does it managed?
    • 4. In indirect routing (via gateway), the sender identifies a gateway to which the datagram can be sent and the gateway then forward the datagram on toward its destination network. The sender then requires two destinations, one for the gateway, and the other for the final destination. Does the sender use a method similar to IP-in-IP encapsulation? If yes, explain the difference. If no, explain how the problem is handled.
    • 5. Consider a fixed subnet partition of a class B network number that will accommodate at least 76 networks. How many hosts can be on each network?

    • 8. Experiment to see how many of each ICMP message type appear on your local network during a day.
    • 9. What is "traceroute" Which protocol message and which type does it use? Experiment this command and report the result.
    • 10. Examine the Mobile IP source code saved under "/export/home/cyu/dynamics-0.8.1/src" in "fenn.csuohio.edu" system
    • (a) Explain under which conditions the 7 one-bit fields are set in agent advertisement message (use the variables in the program, e.g., set B field when aaa>4 which means ...).
    • (b) Explain the registration process as coded in mobile node.
