–Computer Networks
(Book
ID: B1481)
Assignment (60 marks)
Note:
Answer all questions. Kindly note that answers for 10 marks questions should
not exceed
400
word. Each question is followed by evaluation scheme.
Q.1. Write short notes on: 2, 3, 5
a. LAN
b. Analog and digital data transmission
c. High level data link control
ANS:
a) Local
Area Network (LAN)
Local Area Network (LAN) is a small computer
network, in which two or more
computers are directly connected within a single building or office. It is a small
privately owned network, covering a distance of up to 10km that helps
to connect personal computers or workstations to share information and resources. LANs
use
Q2. Videoconferencing is used to conduct meetings
with the people who are located in far distance. Videoconferencing is an
example of which type of computer networks? Explain in detail the different
types of networks with example. (Identifying the correct type – 2 marks, list
the different types of networks – 2 mark, explaining the types- 6 marks)
Ans:
Computer
network provides powerful medium of communication for employees. Nowadays,
Companies are using electronic mail for its daily communication. Apart from
email, companies are usingvideoconferencing as a computer-assisted
communication medium. This videoconferencing helps companies to conduct
meetings with people, who are located at a far distance
Q3. A protocol helps in establishing the
communication between two systems. Protocols are mainly divided into
asynchronous and synchronous protocols. List and describe in detail the
different types of protocols that are classified under the two main protocols.
(list and correct differentiating of protocols under the two main types – 5
marks, explanation- 5 marks) 10 marks
Ans:
Asynchronous
protocols Asynchronous transmission is a data transfer method
in which a collection of data is sent together, spaced by varying time
intervals. Each data character is preceded by a start-bit and is followed by an
end-bit to inform the receiver where the character begins and ends.
Asynchronous protocols are the communication protocols which are used in
asynchronous transmission. An asynchronous protocol sends data to
Q.4. Integrated Services for Digital Network (ISDN)
is a set of communication standards for
Simultaneous digital transmission of voice, video,
data, and other network services over the traditional circuits of the public
switched telephone network. It was first defined in 1988 in the CCITT red book.
Explain the different types of ISDN with their features and advantages for each
one of them. (Explaining Two different types , Features of both of them ,
Advantages of both of them) 2,4,4
ANS:
ISDN channels
The term ISDN channel means the passage or
transmission of signalling and
user information in a single direction. The three basic ISDN channels are
Data channel (D channel), Bearer channel (B channel), and Hybrid channel
(H channel).
Q.5. ABC company is an internet service provider.
The main goal of ABC is to provide 24 X7X365 storage capacity, storage
management and internet service to the customers. It now needs a solution that
will eliminate downtime. Downtime is nothing but the time during which a
computer or computer system is down, or inoperative due to hardware or software
failure. We also need the flexibility in quick response to both the development
in customer base and additional capacity and service demands of the customers. ABC
company took the help of network storage infrastructure software provider to
achieve their goals by providing support for end to end redundancy and bondless
scalability. By creating a scalable storage network with the ability to
confidentially deliver the 24X7X365 reliability, and speed that outsourcing
customers demand, it has enabled the ISP/SSP to attract and retain customers
and substantially build its business. As the same time, the solution has
effectively lowered ABC company’s total cost of ownership for its entire
storage solution: the IP Stor/CNP union has enabled a painless, flexible cost
effective, scalable solution. The complementary IP Stor/CNT solution has
allowed to its customers easily and cost- effectively. a. What were the problem
which ABC Company was facing before consulting network storage infrastructure
software provider? b. What were the benefits of implementing a scalable storage
network? c. List the different classes of ISPs and their applications. (
Mentioning the problems faced by ABC company after reading the SLM, Listing the
benefits, Listing the different classes of ISP and their applications) 2,3,5
ANS:
The problems faced by ABC Company after reading the
SLM
The important issue to address while choosing
connectivity solutions is, whether application servers are being connected to
storage or disparate networks are being interconnected. The key factors to be
considered are elimination of single points of failure, high scalability, and
ease of set up. The FalcoStor’s IP Stor software
Q6. How are the different topologies of computer
networks arranged? Explain the working of each of them (listing the different
topologies with examples – 2 marks, explanation- 4 marks, diagrams- 4 marks) 10
marks
Ans:
Types of topology :
1) Bus topology
2) Ring topology
3) Star topology
4) Tree topology
