Here are the midterm solutions.

Here is a link to the course student forum that has recently been set up.

Midterm formula sheet

I made a mistake in the posted Quiz 2 solutions for question 2. The ack time is 8*2*1e3/10e6=1.6ms. So the total delay is 11.6 ms and so the throughput is 6.9 Mbps.

Also for your reference here is last year's midterm. Last year's course was organized differently than this year's so please don't think everything you see on this midterm will be asked, just concentrate on what we have actually studied in class and what has actually appeared in the assignments. For example, we haven't done any detailed discussions on internetwork addressing, subnets, CIDR, distance vector routing, CDNs, P2Ps etc.(Q4, Q5(a),(b),etc.) so obviously you don't have to worry about that in the midterm. This year's midterm will cover what we dealt with in class (I'll detail that more by this Thursday) and what is on Assignments 1 and 2 (all the questions therein).

Here are the quiz 2 solutions.

Please see Moodle (the announcement should also have been emailed to you) regarding the vote to change the midterm date to Oct. 23 (from Oct. 28).

Here are the formulas you'll be getting for quiz 2. Valid stuff for the quiz is stuff we have discussed in class over the last couple of weeks (L3 and L4 mostly) and Assig. 2 up to and including problem 14.

Assignment 2 posted. Due. Tue. Oct. 14 in class by the end of class.

Here are the quiz 1 solutions. Remember you have 1 week to appeal for a mark adjust (please see Grades for the remarking policy.

Assig 1 solns posted (in Announcements wiki page).

Here's a copy of formula's I will be giving you for the quiz (Thurs. Sept. 25, 15 min). I will be providing these right on the quiz so please don't use your own copy. The quiz is closed book. Don't forget to bring a calculator.

Quiz 1 Formulas

For Assignment 1 you are responsible to hand in only questions 1, 4, 5, 8 (but you don't have to sketch a round-robin net) (i.e. not 10, 12).

As I mentioned the quiz will be based on the assignment questions (out of fairness I'll only consider questions 1-8). That doesn't mean I'll ask you the exact questions, or even the same question with different numbers or that I'll even ask you for the name of exactly the same service that you named in the assignment, but my feeling is that if you can answer the assignment questions you'll be in good shape for the quiz.

I will post full solutions to everything by Tue. right after class to maximize your access to solutions (so therefore, I will not accept late assignments).
