multiplexing and demultiplexing | My Assignment Tutor

What is multiplexing and demultiplexing? Why these two processes are important in data communication? 5. Why is it always important to control the flow of data? What are the means used by transport layer protocols for flow control? 6. Explain the data flow in the following diagrams 7. Explain the two way and three way handshake process by using suitable arrow diagrams. Activity: 1. Open the packet tracer software interface and get familiar with it using the help menu 2. Place three node PCs and one laptop within the work area 3. Connect them using a hub (hub 1). What is the suitable connection type? 4. Similarly, connect another three PCs nodes using a switch (switch 1) on the same workspace 5. Is it possible to connect the hub 1 to switch 1? Connect the two network segments using minimum resources and call it ‘Subnet 1’ 6. Now, create a different ‘Subnet 2’ by connecting 3 PCs to another switch (switch 2) 7. Now you are asked to connect these two subnets by connecting switch 1 and switch 2 using a suitable network device. Confirm from your selection by asking the instructor 8. It is required to assign IP addresses to these devices in order to enable networking among them. Assign suitable IP addresses to each device of your choice. To assign IP address click on the network device and go to the ‘config’ tab. Then click the ‘FastEthernet’ button under ‘Interface’ to get the IP config wizard as shown below
