    Transmission Delay

    A two-port bridge connects on the end of a cable of length X m. to the end of a similar cable of length 3x/2 m. Hosts are attached at various points on the cable system, which operates as a shared-access LAN implementing the CSMA/CD protocol with a minimum frame length of 512 bits. The bridge imparts a delay in forwarding frame

    IP address routing

    Suppose a router has built up the routing table shown in Table below. The router can deliver packets directly over interfaces 0 and 1, or it can forward packets to routers R2, R3, or R4.

    Sketch the Bode magnitude plots for the following functions: (a) T(s)=-10s/(s+20)(s+2000) (b) T(s)=10(s+10)/(s+1000) Bode plots were introduced in my second circuit analysis class, but I really didn't think it was important because it looked like an outdated tool no longer in use. Other than changing s to jw and plottin
