SECOND ATTEMPT- SEMESTER I

STAGE: Level four

SUBJECT: Networks Protocols
EXAMINER: Dr.satea hikmat

NOTE: ANSWER FOUR QUESTION Answer (2)

Ql- Define only five terms:

Define the following terms: HTTP, Processing delay, Stateless protocol, Symmetric key crypto and
Application layer.

I - HTTP defines the structure of these messages and how the client and server exchange the
messages.

2-TheContent-Length: header line indicates the number of bytes in the object being

3- Stateless Protocol: HTTP server maintains no information about the clients, HTTP is said to be
a stateless Protocol.

4- Symmetric key crypto: sender, receiver keys identical public-key crypto: encryption key public,
decryption key secret (Private).

5- ARP: The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a communications protocol used for
discovering the link layer address associated with a given IPv4 address.

6 Application layer: The application layer is responsible for supporting network applications. The
appliiation layer includes many protocols, including HTTP to support the Web, SMTP to support
electronic mail, and FTP to support file transfer.

e2- a) Web servers use cookies for many different purposes, briefly clarified?
,l

1 If a server requires authentication biit doeSh't want to hassle (Disturbance) a user with a
usemame and password prompt every time the user visits the site, it can set a cookie.
2 lf a server wants to remember a usefs preferences so that it can provide targeted
advertisement during subsequent visits, it can set a cookie.
3 If a user is shopping at a site (e.g., buying several CDs), the server can use cookies to keep
track of the items that the user is purchasing, i.e., to create a virtual shopping cart'
 g

b) What is queuing delay and when its value equals zero?

' At the queue, the packet experiences a queuing delay as it waits to be transmitted onto the link.
The queuing delay of a dpecific packet. will depend on the number of other, earlier-arriving
packets that are queued and waiting for transmission across the link; ttie delay of a given packet
can vary significantly from packet to packet. If the querie is ernpty and no other packet is
currently being transmitted, then our packet's queuing delay is zero.

Q3-

a) What the different between LastByteRead and LastByteRcvd?

LastByteRead: thre number of the last byte in the data stream read from the bufferby the application
process in B. '
LastByteRcvd - the number of the last byte in the data stream that has arrived from the network and
has been placed in the receive buffer at B. ,, ;

b) Compare between GET and POST? (five point only)
