Question 44
CSMCQ2 marksNeeds review
A TCP sender successfully establishes a connection with a TCP receiver and starts the transmission of segments. The TCP congestion control mechanism’s slow-start threshold is set to 1000 segments. Assume that the round-trip time is fixed at 1 milisecond. Assume that the sender always has data to send, the segments are numbered from 1, and no segment is lost. Let
denote the time (in miliseconds) at which the transmission of segment number 2000 starts. Which one of the following options is correct?Your answerChoose one option.
