Question 79

Consider the following statements about the timeout value used in TCP.
(i) The timeout value is set to the RTT (Round Trip Time) measured during TCP connection establishment for the entire duration of the connection.
(ii) Appropriate RTT estimation algorithm is used to set the timeout value of a TCP connection.
(iii) Timeout value is set to twice the propagation delay from the sender to the receiver.
Which of the following choices hold?

A
(i) is false, but (ii) and (iii) are true
B
(i) and (iii) are false, but (ii) is title
C
(i) and (ii) are false, but (iii) is true
D
(i), (ii) and (iii) are false
Question 79 Explanation: 
Statement-I: It is False.
The timeout value cannot be fixed for entire duration as it will turn timer to static timer, we need dynamic timer for timeout.
Statement-II: It is True.
Basic algorithm, Jacobson’s algorithm, Karl’s modification; these three algorithms are to be appropriate to RTT estimation algorithm used to set timeout value dynamically.
Statement-III: It is False.
Because timeout value is set to twice the propagation delay in data link layer where hop to hop distance is known, not in TCP layer.
Correct Answer: B
