No, internet Protocol permits packets to follow any route. The same packet may attempt to take multiple different routes and whichever arrives first is accepted and later copies of the same packet are discarded.

How is data passed in packets?

The details vary enormously from protocol to protocol, but the basics are the same for all of them. A stream of data is split into packets, the packet has a header which contains (amongst other things) the destination for the packet. The network uses the destination address to deliver the network to the correct destination.

Explain the principal responsibility of the network layer and data link layer in a Wide Area Network in detail?

the network layer is the same as the data link layer, they do the same thing. that is that they communicat with the network to send packets of data...


What operates at the Network layer and manages multicasting?

The data link layer is responsible for the moving of the frames from one hop to another and the delivery of packets within the same network.But when there is the need to send the packets form one network to another then the network layer comes into play and with the help of logical addess being provided by the network later as well as with the help of routers or switches the packets are being reached to the desired destination.

Why Round trip time varies to same web server When you ping?

Ping usually sends small packets to the destination machine, which is in turn sent back by the destination machine to the source machine. There are usually many paths available from the source to the destination, and each time ping is run, it is not necessary that the same route is chosen. (The route can vary depending on the traffic patterns etc) This changes the amount of time taken by packets to come back to source machine when ping runs different number of times.
