Student Details:
Name: ###
ID: ###
CRN: ###
Instructions:










You must submit two separate copies (one Word file and one PDF file) using the Assignment Template on
Blackboard via the allocated folder. These files must not be in compressed format.
It is your responsibility to check and make sure that you have uploaded both the correct files.
Zero mark will be given if you try to bypass the SafeAssign (e.g. misspell words, remove spaces between
words, hide characters, use different character sets, convert text into image or languages other than English
or any kind of manipulation).
Email submission will not be accepted.
You are advised to make your work clear and well-presented. This includes filling your information on the cover
page.
You must use this template, failing which will result in zero mark.
You MUST show all your work, and text must not be converted into an image, unless specified otherwise by
the question.
Late submission will result in ZERO mark.
The work should be your own, copying from students or other resources will result in ZERO mark.
Use Times New Roman font for all your answers.
Question One
Pg. 01
Learning
Outcome(s):
Describe a deep
and systematic
understanding of
Computer
networking
principles, models
and technologies.
Question One
2 Marks
A network is the interconnection of a set of devices such as computers, laptops,
workstations, cellular phones that are capable of communication. Network topology is
the way a network is physically and logically arranged by descripting how links and
nodes are set up to relate to each other. There are several different types of network
topology for building a local area network (LAN). Assume a network is a fully connected
mesh topology, answer the following:
a) What is meant by a fully connected mesh topology?
b) How many physical channels needed to link 6 devices?
c) Cite an advantage of this topology.
d) Cite a drawback of this topology.
Question Two
Pg. 02
Learning
Outcome(s):
Develop the
ability to outline
layered approach
for networking
and the physical
layer &
associated
hardware and
software
integration.
Question Two
2 Marks
One of the important concepts in protocol layering in the internet is multiplexing and
demultiplexing. Differentiate between them.
Question Three
Pg. 03
Learning
Outcome(s):
Describe a deep
and systematic
understanding of
Computer
networking
principles, models
and technologies.
Question Three
2 Marks
A network with a bandwidth of 20 Mbps can theoretically pass only an average of
12,000 frames per minute.
a) What is the average size of the frame expressed in bits?
b) The Achieved throughput is 5 Mbps. What is the ratio of throughput/bandwidth?
Question Four
Pg. 04
Learning
Outcome(s):
Develop the
ability to outline
layered approach
for networking
and the physical
layer &
associated
hardware and
software
integration.
Question Four
2 Marks
