Write client and server programs wherein the module implements a mark file system of students. The client sends the roll number of a student. The server sends mark sheet file pertaining to the roll number. (25) iii.Implement 1-bit sliding window for the below scenario Both A and B are sending and receiving data with seq no 0 or 1. (Initial packet with Seq no: 0 and ack: 1). Show the duplicates received at both ends. (A sends 0,1 and B sends 0,1. B gets 0,1 (got 0, but no ack of Bs 0) and hence B unnecessarily re-sends 0,0.). Similarly at As end.

Socket application i.Write client and server programs using connectionless service wherein the client request Modify the server program in the above protocol to accommodate a concurrent server. The server should be capable of handling multiple clients at a time. Concurrency can be brought in by either making the server create multiple children to handle multiple clients or by creating multiple threads to handle multiple children. ii.Simulation of DNS using UDP sockets. Maintain a root server, 3 TLD servers (say, corresponding to com, edu and gov), 3 authoritative server. Iterative: The client sends a DNS query to the root server. The root server sends the IP address of TLD server to the client. The client sends the DNS query to the TLD server. The TLD server sends the IP address of the authoritative server to the client. The client sends the DNS query to the authoritative server and gets the IP address of the required host NOTE:A domain name consists of one or more parts, technically called labels. Each label may contain up to 63 characters. The full domain name may not exceed a total length of 253 characters. The characters allowed in a label follow the LDH rule (letters, digits, hyphen). Domain names are interpreted in case- independent manner. Labels should not start or end with a hyphen.

6.

Application development i.Simulation of FTP understanding control and data channels. The client initiates a TCP connection to the server and sends the required FTP command to the server. For example, get filename. The server reads the command, initiates a new TCP connection with the client using a different port number. The server then sends the result of the command to the client (70) and closes the connection. ii.Implement a Client/Server application to perform TFTP service using UDP (30) Sockets. Network Management protocol. i.Simulate a simple network management application wherein the network server program monitors the given working hours, the server shuts the client connection down. ii.Simulation of HTTP protocol The client sends a HTTP request ( the request is sent in the actual format with request line, header lines). The server gets the HTTP request and understands what method is to be done and responds in a HTTP response message. The response message can have a status line and header lines followed by the data. Client Request line format : method/ request http version Server reply format : http version status code followed by requested page implement foe two methods a.. Get : Retrieval of resource b. Post : Creation of a new resource or the updates of existing resources

Network simulator i.Write a script to simulate wired environment to implement a unicast routing protocol / client and server programs. Trace the following TCP parameters : congestion window( cwnd_), sequence number(maxseq_), round trip time(rtt_) a) Plot the following: The congestion window (cwnd) as a function time. b) Have the simulation run from time 0 to 51sec. find the number of bytes transmitted in 50 seconds? What is the throughput achieved? c) Can you find the first packet droped? What is its sequence number? d) Introduce errors in any one of the link. Start with an error probability of 0.01 (1 percent), and increase in steps of 0.01, upto 0.10 (10 percent). Also include the 0 percent error case for comparison.

ii.Write client and server programs using UDP socket wherein the server implements a simple calculator. The client request for a calculation by sending the pertaining data in the request. The server performs the requested calculation send the result which is latter displayed at the clients terminal. Implement concurrent server in a iterative manner to process the request from the client. 9. i.Write a script to simulate wireless environment to implement a unicast routing protocol. Consider a wireless network with 6-nodes network over an area of a size of 500mX 400m The initial location of nodes 0,1,and 2 are respectively (5,5), (490,285) and (150,240). At time 10, node 0 starts moving towards point (250,250) at a speed of 3m/sec. Assume initial location of nodes 4, 5 & 6 are10m away from node 0,1 & 3 respectively. At time 15, node 1 starts moving towards point (45, 258) at a speed of 5m/sec. At time 110, node 0 starts moving towards point (480,300) at a speed of 5m/sec. Nodes 4,5 & 6 move at speed of 30m/sec which pauses for 2sec every 10m of traversal. The simulation lasts 150 sec. At time 10, a TCP connection using the DSDV ad-hoc routing protocol and the IEEE802.11 MAC protocol is initiated between node 0 and node 1. Change packet rate (1, 2, 3) when generating traffic and draw a chart that shows speed versus end to end delay. ii.Write a client / server program using TCP sockets, wherein the client sends the name of a program to be executed at the server.
