5 Questions
Explain the role of the transport layer in the TCP/IP suite.
The transport layer in the TCP/IP suite is located between the application layer and the network layer. It provides services to the application layer and receives services from the network layer.
What are the key contents of the transport layer discussed in the text?
The key contents of the transport layer discussed in the text include services, multiplexing, demultiplexing, sockets, UDP, RTP, TCP services and features, segment, TCP connection (Three-Way Handshake), flow control and buffering, flow and congestion control (Leaky Bucket, Token Bucket), and Quality of Service (QoS).
What is the purpose of the Three-Way Handshake in TCP Connection?
The Three-Way Handshake in TCP Connection is used to establish a reliable connection between two devices by synchronizing the sequence and acknowledgment numbers.
What are the mechanisms used for congestion control in the transport layer?
The mechanisms used for congestion control in the transport layer include Leaky Bucket, Token Bucket, and Quality of Service (QoS).
How does the transport layer provide services to the application layer?
The transport layer provides services to the application layer by ensuring reliable data transfer, flow control, and end-to-end communication.
