Exercise 1 question

Gloss over TCP rfc's.
Gloss over other documentation.
Make a copy of the state diagram from CN Book.
Remove arrows and states you don't need, because of the limited scope op the assignment.

Especially take into account:
1) You are asked to implement a library.
2) You don't have to implement things like RST.

Answer available in ps and pdf.

Exercise 2 question

Write down all the possible scenarios for a single ACK to get lost. How would an implementation react to this scenario. Use 'left-right side, time down' diagram to explain the working. At the end of your implementation make sure that your TCP implementation can handle all these scenarios!
