Which layer of the OSI model is the transport layer? Layer 1 Layer 2 Layer 3 Layer 4 Layer 5 Layer 6 Layer 7 Which devices operate at the transport layer? Routers Switches NICs Workstations Bridges Hubs Which protocols of the TCP/IP suite operate at the transport layer? (Choose two) TCP IP FTP HTTP UDP SMTP Which of the following services should be provided by the transport layer of the OSI model? (Select all that apply) Receiving data from upper layer protocols and segmenting it Establishing end-to-end communications between hosts Sending segments from one end host to another end host Choosing the best path for routing transmissions between hosts Providing flow control Providing direct network support for web browsers Converting between different file formats Providing reliability by having transmissions acknowledged and resending if necessary Which TCP/IP protocol is a connection-oriented protocol that provides all the expected transport layer services? TCP IP FTP HTTP

How does the connection-oriented transport layer protocol start up a session between two hosts? With a preamble With a two-way handshake With a three-way handshake With a cyclic redundancy check When two hosts initialise a connection, they must synchronize by exchanging initial sequence numbers. The source host begins by sending a SYN signal with its own ISN. What does the destination host do when it receives the signal? Sends an ACK signal confirming the source hosts ISN Sends a SYN signal with its own ISN Sends an ACK signal with its own ISN Sends a signal that is both an ACK confirming the source hosts ISN and a SYN with its own ISN A situation can arise where the destination host is receiving data more quickly than it can process it, its buffers overflow, and it loses some of the data. What can be used to put this situation right? Flow control Handshaking Calculating the checksum Buffer recovery If TCP is using a window size of 3, what does this mean? The source device will attempt to send a packet three times before giving up The source device will send three octets before waiting for an acknowledgement Groups of three packets must be sent by the same route 3 seconds are allowed for end-to-end transmission The source has just sent octets 4, 5 and 6. It receives a message ACK 6. What will it do? Continue transmission by sending octets 7, 8 and 9 Change the window size to 6 Send octet 6 again before continuing transmission Send octets 4, 5 and 6 again

The following fields are all in the TCP segment. Which of them are also in the UDP datagram? (Choose three) Source port Sequence number Acknowledgement number Window Urgent Checksum Data Which of the following tasks are carried out by UDP? (Choose two) Receiving data from upper layer protocols and encapsulating it with a layer 4 header Establishing end-to-end communications between hosts Sending datagrams from one host to another host Providing flow control Providing direct network support for web browsers Converting between different file formats Providing reliability by having transmissions acknowledged and resending if necessary A user tries to download a file using TFTP but the download fails. What could happen next? The transport layer protocol will detect that the transfer has failed and will retry. The transport layer will not detect that the transfer has failed. The file cannot be downloaded. The transport layer will not detect that the transfer has failed, but the user can retry. A user tries to download a file using FTP but the download fails. What could happen next? The transport layer protocol will detect that the transfer has failed and will retry. The transport layer will not detect that the transfer has failed. The file cannot be downloaded. The transport layer will not detect that the transfer has failed, but the user can retry. Which statements are true of port numbers? (Choose three) TCP uses port numbers for reliability but UDP does not. TCP and UDP use port numbers to identify the application layer protocol Port numbers are used to keep track of different conversations Port numbers are assigned randomly using numbers below 1023 Port 80 is used by HTTP
