Multiple choice

Which of the following is the correct transmission path in hops for a packet switching network that contain n nodes in a bidirectional ring form?

  1. Packet switching does not observe any transmission path in hops.

  2. Best case = 2, average case = 2, worst case = 2

  3. Best case = 1, average case = n/4, worst case = n/2

  4. Best case = 1, average case = 1, worst case = 1

  5. None of the above
