A network engineer is optimizing transport layer communications for an industrial control system. The environment requires two distinct traffic flows: real-time telemetry sensor updates sent every 20 milliseconds where low latency is critical and occasional dropped data points are acceptable, and system firmware configuration updates where every packet must be acknowledged, strictly ordered, and delivered without loss. During peak utilization, network captures show excessive latency on telemetry feeds due to windowing mechanisms and retransmissions. Which of the following transport layer protocol recommendations best resolves the performance issues while meeting all delivery requirements?
- Migrate real-time telemetry traffic to UDP to eliminate connection-establishment delay and retransmission overhead, while maintaining TCP for firmware configuration updates to ensure guaranteed, connection-oriented delivery.Cevap
- BMigrate both real-time telemetry and firmware configuration streams to UDP to minimize protocol header size and eliminate bandwidth overhead across congested links.
- CEncapsulate telemetry data into Layer 2 Ethernet frames using standard IP headers to enforce sequence numbering and flow control without transport layer overhead.
- DReassign firmware configuration transport traffic to UDP port 53 to utilize standard transport layer reliability mechanisms designed for core infrastructure updates.
Cevap
Migrate real-time telemetry traffic to UDP to eliminate connection-establishment delay and retransmission overhead, while maintaining TCP for firmware configuration updates to ensure guaranteed, connection-oriented delivery.
The correct answer properly distinguishes between connection-oriented and connectionless transport protocol features. UDP is connectionless and unacknowledged, eliminating delay-inducing retransmissions for real-time telemetry. TCP is connection-oriented, utilizing sequence numbers and acknowledgments to ensure complete, ordered delivery for critical firmware updates.
