Time: 3 Hours

1.

Write an echo procedure using the TCP socket program between a client and server.

100

2.

Write a chat procedure using the TCP socket program between a client and server.

100

3.

Write an echo procedure using the UDP socket program between a client and
server.

100

4.

Write a chat procedure using the UDP socket program between a client and server.

100

5.

Write a socket program using TCP protocol which gets two numbers from the
client and performs the various arithmetic functions on the server side based on
these two numbers. The results are displayed on the client side.

100

6.

Write a socket program using UDP protocol which enters a list of numbers in the
100
ascending order on the client side. This file is modified on the server side using the
descending procedure and time of modification is displayed on the client side.

7.

Write a file transfer program using TCP protocol which gets an array of characters 100
in a file as its input on the client side and uses the ascending procedure to reorder
it and displays the output at the server side.

8.

Write a file transfer program using UDP protocol which displays the hello world 100
message when it establishes a connection between the client and server. It accepts
a file with a string as its input on the client side and on the server side it checks
whether the string is a palindrome or not. It the string is a palindrome then it
continues else the connection is lost between them.

9.

Write a file transfer program using UDP protocol which retrieves the lines in a file 100
on the server side whose first letter matches with that of the file name.

10.

Write a program to capture the packets where the sending window limits the 100
sender to a maximum of five outstanding, unacknowledged packets. To send a
new packet write a Send _New () which will create a packet and begin the
simulation of data moving between sender and receiver. To simulate the loss of a
packet or acknowledgment write a Kill_Packet (). Use the Stop function to capture
the contents of the packet and display on the receiver side.

11.

Write the sender portion of the Go-Back-N algorithm for reliable data transfer. 100
The program allows the user to type messages that will be sent and reassembled by
a receiver. The receiver is somewhat malicious; it will cause some packets to get
thrown away. It will, however, keep track of all the packets it has received or sent
so you can use this information for debugging your program. The test area at the
bottom of the receiver shows the packet as they are delivered to the application, so
the text that appears here should be identical to what the sender sent. The receiver
will not cause data corruption so you do not need to deal with checksums. The
sender will send a single character in a packet along with an id number through a
UDP channel. The data in the packet will therefore be three bytes long. One byte
will be the sequence number of the packet, the next two will be the two bytes from
the character. ACK packets will contain one byte of data indicating the packet
number that is being acknowledged.

12.

Write a sliding window algorithm code with a SWS=8 and RWS=8 where there is a loss 100
of alternative data. Use the ACK and NACK code to show the implementation of lost and
retrieved data.

13.

Write a sliding window program which has a sender window of size 5 and receiver
window of size 3 with an acknowledgement for the frames as either 1/0.

100

14.

Write a distance vector routing program for the following network and find the
average time with the number of messages sent to cover the entire network.

100

15.

Write a program to implement the domain name system when the client sends a
request www.google.com to the name server. The program should exhibit the code
for obtaining the IP address for each level of domain (Ex. Com, google.com).

100

16.

Assume that a blackberry application is being developed for which a code has to
be written such that the HTTP request and response should be captured when the
websites

100

17.

Write a program to create an instant chat room and perform the following
operations:

100

a. Send invitations for multi-users to join the chat room.

b. Discover the different users present in the chat room and list their
names
c. Change the subject of the room to some New subject
d. Change the role of the user from visitor to participant
18.

Write a program to check the availability of an SNMP agent for a manager which
will locate some utilities like ucd-snmp and fetch the entire system group using
GET-NEXT operations retrieving one entry at a time.

100

19.

Write a program using UDP protocol to simulate the packet transfer between three
nodes n1(source),n2 and n3(Destination) using NS2 with following specifications:

100

e. Create a simplex link between n1 and n2 with a bandwidth of

5Mbps, delay of 5ms, queue type of RED (Link l1)
f. Create a duplex link between n2 and n3 with a bandwidth of
1Mbps, delay of 50ms, queue type of RED (Link l2)
g. The total simulation time is 100sec and the packet transfer starts
from the 10th sec of the simulation
h. Generate FTP traffic from node n1 for a packet size is 512 bytes in
an interval of 0.5 sec
Calculate the through put and delay for l1 and l2.

20.

Write a program using UDP protocol to simulate the packet transfer between three
nodes n1(source),n2 and n3(Destination) using NS2 with following specifications:
i. Create a duplex link between n1 and n2 with a bandwidth of
3Mbps, delay of 5ms, queue type of Drop tail (Link l1)
j. Create a duplex link between n2 and n3 with a bandwidth of
1Mbps, delay of 30ms, queue type of Drop tail (Link l2)
k. The total simulation time is 50sec and the packet transfer starts
from the 5th sec of the simulation
l. Generate CBR traffic from node n1 for a packet size is 512 bytes in
an interval of 0.1 sec
Calculate the through put and delay for l1 and l2.
