Zorluk: OrtaConnection-Oriented vs Connectionless Protocols

A network engineer is configuring a network management platform that collects high-frequency telemetry data from core switches. The data collector requires a transport protocol that minimizes packet header overhead and does not delay data transmission with connection establishment or acknowledgment tracking. Which of the following features are characteristic of the transport protocol appropriate for this telemetry traffic? (SELECT TWO)

  1. A fixed 8-byte header structure without fields for sequence numbering or flow controlCevap
  2. Best-effort data delivery operating without a prior connection establishment handshakeCevap
  3. C
    Sliding window flow control to adjust transmission rates based on receiver buffer capacity
  4. D
    Automated retransmission requests initiated when missing segments are identified by sequence gaps
  5. E
    Direct encapsulation of Layer 2 frames into IP datagrams bypassing transport port assignments

Cevap

The characteristics of the connectionless protocol (UDP) required for high-frequency telemetry are a fixed 8-byte header structure without sequence numbers or flow control, and best-effort data delivery operating without a prior connection handshake.
The scenario describes a telemetry application requiring User Datagram Protocol (UDP), which is connectionless. UDP relies on a fixed 8-byte header containing no sequence numbers, window sizes, or acknowledgment fields, and it sends datagrams using best-effort delivery without establishing a session handshake first.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the application requirements and transport layer protocol type.
The requirement for low header overhead and no transmission delay due to connection setup or tracking points to User Datagram Protocol (UDP), a connectionless protocol.
High-frequency telemetry prioritizes low latency and minimal overhead over guaranteed delivery.
2
Evaluate protocol header and operational characteristics.
UDP features a minimal 8-byte header (source port, destination port, length, checksum) and operates on a best-effort basis without an initial handshake.
Connectionless protocols eliminate session state tracking, connection handshakes, and windowing mechanisms.
