  5. semantic P2P networks

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

Semantic P2P networks are a new type of P2P network. It combines the advantages of unstructured P2P networks and structural P2P networks and avoids their disadvantages.In semantic P2P networks, nodes are classified as DNS-like domain names with semantic meanings such as Alice @Brittney.popular.music. Semantic P2P networks contains prerequisite virtual tree topology and net-like topology formed by cached nodes.

B Correct answer
Explanation

Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ), also known as Automatic Repeat Query, is an error-control method for data transmission that uses acknowledgements (messages sent by the receiver indicating that it has correctly received a data frame or packet) and timeouts (specified periods of time allowed to elapse before an acknowledgment is to be received) to achieve reliable data transmission over an unreliable service. If the sender does not receive an acknowledgment before the timeout, it usually re-transmits the frame/packet until the sender receives an acknowledgment or exceeds a predefined number of re-transmissions.ARQ protocols reside in the Data Link or Transport Layers of the OSI model.

Multiple choice
  1. Stateful inspection firewall

  2. Application proxy

B Correct answer
Explanation

This security technique essentially intrudes in the middle of this protocol exchange seeming like a destination in communication with the sender that is outside the firewall.

Multiple choice
  1. 3 (destination unreachable)

  2. 4 (source quench)

  3. 5 (redirect)

  4. 11 (time exceeded)

  5. 9 (router advertisement)

B Correct answer
Explanation

This value in ICMP header code field specifies that the message is received from an intermediate router and it means that the router did not have the buffer space needed to queue the datagram.
