Module 14-Transport Layer

A PC that is communicating with a web server has a TCP window size of 6,000 bytes when sending data and with a packet size of 3,000 bytes. Which byte of information will the web server acknowledge after it has received two packets of data from the PC?

• 3000

• 3001

• 6000

• 6001

What TCP header field is used to reorder segments received out of order?

• Sequence number

• Control bits

• Checksum

• Window size

Which Transport layer protocol provides reliable connections to network applications by using the sequence number to order packets, acknowledgment number to track packets, and Window size to provide flow control?

• UDP

• TCP

• STP

• IP

Which flag in the TCP header is used to confirm that connectivity is established between two network devices?

• ACK

• SYN

• RST

• PSH

Which field in the TCP header contains the TCP flag indicators in the 3-way handshake process?

• Window size

• Checksum

• Control bits

• Source port

What transport layer port range is used by the sending devices to identify the client application initiating the network communication?

• Well-known

• Registered

• Standard

• Dynamic/Random

Which TCP header fields ensures the connection between the proper network applications for the type of data being sent?

• Sequence number and acknowledgement number

• Source and destination port

• Window size and Checksum

• Control bits and Checksum

Which transport layer protocol is used for voice-over IP since speed is a priority and some data loss can be tolerated?

• TCP

• UDP

• IP

• STP

Which factor determines TCP window size?

• The amount of data to be transmitted.

• The amount of data the source is capable of sending at one time

• The number of services included in the TCP segment.

• The amount of data the destination can process at one time.
