CREDITS 4
MARKS 60
Note: Answer all questions. Kindly note that answers for 10 marks questions should be
approximately of 400 words. Each question is followed by evaluation scheme.
Q.1. Write short notes on:
a. LAN
b. Analog and digital data transmission
c. High level data link control
Ans : a) Local Area Network (LAN):
These types of computer networks connect network devices over a relatively short distance. Quite
often, a networked office building, home or school contains a single LAN although it is normal to
come across a building that contains a few small LANs. On a few occasions, a LAN may also span over
a group of nearby buildings. Such computer networks are usually owned by one organisation.
LANs consist of two broadcast networks namely Bus topology and Ring topology. In ring topology the
computers and other network devices are connected to each other in the form of a ring or a circle.
b. Analog and digital data transmission :
Analog data transmission:
Analog (or analogue) transmission is a transmission method of conveying voice, data, image, signal
or video information using a continuous signal which varies in amplitude, phase, or some other
property in proportion to that of a
2. c. High level data link control:
High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) is a bit-oriented code-transparent synchronous data link layer
protocol developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The original ISO
standards for HDLC are:
ISO 3309 – Frame Structure
ISO 4335 – Elements of Procedure
ISO 6159 – Unbalanced Classes of
Q2. Videoconferencing is used to conduct meetings with the people who are located in far
distance. Videoconferencing is an example of which type of computer networks? Explain in detail
the different types of networks with example.
Answer :Videoconferencing type :
The wide area network (WAN) is a critical component of the infrastructure supporting video
conferencing
Conducting a conference between two or more participants at different sites by using computer
networks to transmit audio and video data. For example, a point-to-point (two-person) video
conferencing system works much like a video telephone. Each participant has a video camera,
microphone, and speakers mounted on his or her computer. As the two participants speak to one
another, their voices are carried over the network and delivered to the other's speakers, and
whatever images appear in front of the video camera appear in a window on the other participant's
monitor. The quality of a video
Q3. A protocol helps in establishing the communication between two systems. Protocols are
mainly divided into asynchronous and synchronous protocols. List and describe in detail the
different types of protocols that are classified under the two main protocols.
Answer : Different types of protocols :
Two main classes of protocols are :
File retrieval protocols
This type of service was one of the earliest ways of retrieving information from computers
connected to the Internet. You could view the names of the files stored on the serving computer,
but you didn't have any type of graphics and sometimes no description of a file's content. You would
need to have advanced knowledge of which files contained the information you sought.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
This was one of the first Internet services
Q.4. Integrated Services for Digital Network (ISDN) is a set of communication standards for
Simultaneous digital transmission of voice, video, data, and other network services over the
traditional circuits of the public switched telephone network. It was first defined in 1988 in the
CCITT red book. Explain the different types of ISDN with their features and advantages for each
one of them. (Explaining Two different types , Features of both of them , Advantages of both of
them) 2,4,4
ANS: Different types of ISDN :
3. Integrated services refers to ISDN's ability to deliver at minimum two simultaneous connections, in
any combination of data, voice, video, and fax, over a single line. Multiple devices can be attached to
the line, and used as needed. That
Q.5. ABC company is an internet service provider. The main goal of ABC is to provide 24 X7X365
storage capacity, storage management and internet service to the customers. It now needs a
solution that will eliminate downtime. Downtime is nothing but the time during which a computer
or computer system is down, or inoperative due to hardware or software failure. We also need the
flexibility in quick response to both the development in customer base and additional capacity and
service demands of the customers. ABC company took the help of network storage infrastructure
software provider to achieve their goals by providing support for end to end redundancy and
bondless scalability. By creating a scalable storage network with the ability to confidentially
deliver the 24X7X365 reliability, and speed that outsourcing customers demand, it has enabled the
ISP/SSP to attract and retain customers and substantially build its business. As the same time, the
solution has effectively lowered ABC company’s total cost of ownership for its entire storage
solution: the IP Stor/CNP union has enabled a painless, flexible cost effective, scalable solution.
The complementary IP Stor/CNT solution has allowed to its customers easily and cost- effectively.
a. What were the problem which ABC Company was facing before consulting network storage
infrastructure software provider?
b. What were the benefits of implementing a scalable storage network?
c. List the different classes of ISPs and their applications.
Ans : The problems faced by ABC Company after reading the SLM
The important issue to address while choosing connectivity solutions is, whether application servers
are being connected to storage or disparate networks are being interconnected. The key factors to
be considered are elimination of single points of failure, high scalability, and ease of set up. The
FalcoStor’s IP Stor software solution, a leading network storage infrastructure software provider,
helped ABC Company to achieve their goal by providing support for End-to-End redundancy and
bondless scalability. The ISP/SSP found its high availability Fiber Channel SAN solution in the synergy
between FalcoStor’s highly scalable IP Stor
Q6. How are the different topologies of computer networks arranged? Explain the working of each
of them
Answer :Topologies :
Network topology is the arrangement of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer or
biological network. Essentially, it is the topological structure of a network, and may be depicted
physically or logically. Physical topology refers to the placement of the network's various
components, including device location and cable installation, while logical topology shows how data
flows within a network, regardless of its physical design. Distances between nodes, physical
interconnections, transmission rates, and/or
