2. Flow Control vs Congestion Control
It ensures that the sender only sends what the receiver can handle. The congestion control makes sure that everyone across a network has a "fair" amount of access to network resources, at any given time
Open loop congestion control methods vs Closed Loop congestion control
Open loop tries to prevent congestion produced in a good design and close loop congestion monitor the system to detect congestion, pass this information to where action can be taken, and adjust system operation to correct …show more content…
3. Load shedding is when routers discard packets when the buffer is full and congestion control is when a subnet must prevent additional packets from entering the congested region until those already present can be processed. The congested routers can discard queued packets to make room for those that are arriving.
4. This layer divide the data into segments and also ensures that data must be received in the same sequence in which it was sent. The protocols that are used are TCP and UDP. The data link layer is responsible for encapsulation of packets into frames and then transferring them to the physical layer. It is also responsible for flow control and addressing.
5. A three-way handshake is when two parties need to synchronize their segment sequence numbers used during their transmission. A three way handshake is better than a two way handshake because it needed it to synchronize and acknowledge that both sides' sequence numbers are
