DNS Servers
• Contacted by local
name server when can
not resolve name
• Root name server:
– contacts
authoritative name
server if name
mapping not known
– gets mapping
– returns mapping to
local name server
• 13/Anycast

DNS: iterated queries
root name server
recursive query:
• puts burden of
name resolution on
contacted name
server
• heavy load
iterated query:
• contacted server
replies with name
of server to contact
• “I don’t know this
name, but ask this
server”

LAN Addresses and ARP
32-bit IP address:
• network-layer address
• used to get datagram to destination network
LAN (or MAC or physical) address:
• used to get datagram from one interface to
another physically-connected interface (same
network)
• 48 bit MAC address (for most LANs)
burned into the adapter’s ROM
Comnet 2010

LAN Addresses and ARP
Each adapter on the LAN has a unique LAN address

ARP: Address Resolution Protocol
Question: how to determine
MAC address of B
given B’s IP address?
• Each IP node (Host, Router)
on LAN has ARP module and
table
• ARP Table: IP/MAC address
mappings for some LAN
nodes
< IP address; MAC address;
TTL>
<
…………………………..
>
– TTL (Time To Live): time of
day after which address
mapping will be forgotten
(typically 20 minutes)

ARP protocol
Arp Arp!
• A knows B's IP address, wants to learn
physical address of B
• A broadcasts ARP query packet, containing
B's IP address
– all machines on LAN receive ARP query
• B receives ARP packet, replies to A with its
(B's) physical layer address
• A caches (saves) IP-to-physical address pairs
until information becomes old (times out)
– soft state: information that times out (goes
away) unless refreshed

Problem 1
1. Calculate the completion time of
transferring a file of size 1KB over a link
with speed 10Mb/s and length 3000km.
Propagation speed is 200,000Km/s
Comnet 2010
16
Solution 1
The completion time is calculated as follows:
T = Prop. Delay + Trans. Time
We obtain that:
• Prop. Delay = 3000 km /(0.2 km/usec) = 15ms
• Trans. Time = 1KB/1.25MB/s = 8.2 ms
T = 15ms + 8.2 ms = 23.2 ms

Calculating CRC
• For data D and Generator G find bits R
such that DR = n*G.
• Same as D00…0 = n*G + R
• R will always be 1 bit shorter than G
• Use long Division with XOR
Comnet 2010

Solution 2
• D = 01011000, G=1101, R=???
• 01011000000 | 1101
R=011

n=1100111

CRC – Concluding Remarks
• If R has r bits, there are 2r different CRCs
• A random string will not be detected as
an error in probability 2-r.
• Robustness for common errors depends
on G.

Problem 3
2. In CSMA/CD network there are two computers A
and B which collide in round 1. Give the table of
possible outcomes of the second round and their
probabilities. Assume that the initial delay period
after the collision is D=1 (the hosts pick a
random number between 0 and D before trying
to re-transmit).
