1. [Modified from Comer 21.11] Suppose you are an ISP that owns a /22 address block, 128.32.0.0/22. You have four new customers who need 60 IP addresses each.

(a) (4 points) Propose an allocation for each of the customers, expressing the allocation using CIDR notation.

(b) (2 points) What would be the corresponding netmask (in dotted decimal notation) for each of the customers?



2. (4 points) A routing table contains the following four entries:

Destination IP      Next Hop

==============      ========

128.32.0.0/16       A

128.32.226.0/23     B

128.32.226.0/24     C

128.32.226.0/25     D

The router employs the "longest-prefix match" method for determining the appropriate next hop for each packet that it receives.

(a) What is the next hop for a packet with destination IP address: 128.32.226.187

(b) What is the next hop for a packet with destination IP address: 128.32.227.187

(c) What is the next hop for a packet with destination IP address: 128.32.228.187

(d) Using CIDR notation, how would you represent a network with the range of addresses 128.32.227.80 to 128.32.227.95?

3. (2 points) [Comer 22.7] If a datagram contains one 8-bit option and one 8-bit data value, what values will be found in the header fields H LEN and TOTAL_LENGTH?

4. (2 points) [Comer 22.10] Assume two routers are misconfigured to form a routing loop for some destination D. Explain why a datagram destined for D will not go around the loop forever.

5. (6 points) Hosts A and B are connected via three networks and two routers (R1 and R2).  Host A wants to send two IP packets to Host B.  Each network has its own MTU as shown in the figure.  The identification and length of the packets are as follows:

packet 1: ID=123, LEN=400
packet 2: ID=124, LEN=700

Assume IP headers are 20 bytes long for both packets.
 

 

Show how the packets are fragmented along the way by filling out the table with selected fields from the IP header.  Use one entry for each fragment.

Legend:
LEN: packet length
ID: packet identifier
MF: more fragments bit
Offset: fragment offset (in units of 8 bytes)

 

A to R1 LEN ID MF Offset

R1 to R2 LEN ID MF Offset

R2 to B LEN ID MF Offset

6. (1 point) [Comer 23.23] In Figure 23.11, the ISP has assigned one IP address to the site. Which is the assigned address?

7. (2 points) Consider the NAPT translation table below, which is a corrected version of Figure 23.13 of the textbook (p.399). From the perspective of the host 192.168.0.1, what are the IP addresses of the two endpoints of the TCP connection between itself and the web server located on the Internet? From the perspective of the web server, what are the IP addresses of the two endpoints of the TCP connection? Assume that the IP address of the web server is 1.2.3.4.

Dir.	Fields	Old Value	New Value
out	IP SRC:TCP SRC	192.168.0.1:30000	128.10.24.6:40001
out	IP SRC:TCP SRC	192.168.0.2:30000	128.10.24.6:40002
in	IP DEST: TCP DEST	128.10.24.6:40001	192.168.0.1:30000
in	IP DEST: TCP DEST	128.10.24.6:40002	192.168.0.2:30000
