TCP and UDP Quiz

Which layer of the TCP/IP model does the Transport layer operate on top of?

• Layer 4

• Layer 2

• Layer 1

• Layer 3

What is the purpose of layer-4 addressing and session multiplexing?

• To provide physical components for communication

• To ensure end-to-end addressing

• To deliver layer-4 segments between hosts

• To manage data sequencing

Which protocol provides features like reliable communication and flow control?

• HTTP

• TCP

• UDP

• DNS

What is the purpose of the Flags field in the TCP header?

• To indicate the source port

• To specify the window size

• To acknowledge received segments

• To control the behavior of the protocol

Which protocol is preferred for scenarios where data integrity is critical and the delivery of all segments is required?

• FTP

• UDP

• HTTP

• TCP

In the TCP three-way handshake, which flags are used to establish a connection?

• SYN and ACK

• ACK and RST

• FIN and ACK

• SYN and FIN

What is the primary mechanism in TCP that prevents a sender from overwhelming a receiver by sending too much data too quickly?

• Reliable communication

• Connection establishment

• Data sequencing

• Flow control

Which layer-4 protocol is not connection-oriented and does not provide reliable communication?

• FTP

• UDP

• HTTP

• TCP

What is the primary difference between TCP and UDP in terms of data transmission?

• UDP provides reliable communication, while TCP does not

• TCP provides data sequencing, while UDP does not

• TCP uses datagrams, while UDP treats data as a continuous stream

• TCP treats data as a continuous stream, while UDP uses datagrams

Which layer-4 protocol is preferred for real-time applications like video streaming and online gaming?

• UDP

• HTTP

• TCP

• FTP
