Consider sending a large file over a TCP connection that uses a link of R = 25.6 Mbps. Suppose that this connection is the only TCP connection that the link is supporting, and that this link is the only congested link between the sender and the receiver. Assume that the round-trip time is 100 milliseconds (RTT=100 milliseconds), the maximum segment size is 10000 bits (MSS=10000 bits), and the receivers receive buer is much larger than the congestion window.

What is the maximum window size (in segments) that this TCP connection can achieve?

Suppose that this TCP connection stays always in Slow-Start phase, and that the window size is initially set to 1 segment. How long would it take (in seconds) for the window to reach its maximum size?

uppose the congestion variable, Threshold, is set to 128, and that the window size is initially set to 1 segment. How long would it take (in seconds) for the window to reach its maximum size?

Note: here the connection starts with slow start and switches to AIMD when window size reaches Threshold.
