A transport layer message consisting of 1500 bits of data and 160 bits of header is sent to an internet layer, which appends another 160 bits of header. This is then transmitted through two networks, each of which uses a 24-bit packet header. The destination network has a maximum packet size of 800 bits. How many bits, including headers, are delivered to the network-layer protocol at the destination

Respuesta :

The number of bits, including headers, that are delivered to the network-layer protocol at the destination is 1,892 bits.

First step is to calculate the total size

Total size=1,500+160+160

Total size=1,500+320

Total size=1,820

Second step is to calculate the packets

Packets=1820/800

Packets = 2.275

Packets=3 (rounded)

Third step is to calculate the bits

Bits = 1820 + 24 × 3

Bits = 1892 bits

Inconclusion the number of bits, including headers, that are delivered to the network-layer protocol at the destination is 1,892 bits.
