Consider the a small university network shown in the figure above comprised of 3 types of hosts. Suppose that the institutional link has a connection to the Internet that supports 250 Mbps downstream transmission rate and 200Mbps upstream transmission rate. Suppose that the Ethernet networks (B and C) can support a transmission rate of 1Gbps (both upstream and downstream) and the WiFi network (A) can support a transmission rate of 150Mbps (both upstream and downstream). Assume that the rest of the Internet (not shown in the figure) and the backbone connections between Ethernet switch and router have ample capacity, which can support any transmission rate (both upstream and downstream). Hosts in Networks B and C are connected through Ethernet while Hosts in Network A are connected through WiFi. There are 10 hosts in Network A,15 hosts in Network B and 5 hosts/servers in Network C.
Answer the following three questions (1 mark for each)
1) What is the maximum throughput that any host in this university network can experience when downloading a large file from the Internet?
Select one alternative:
6.25Mbps
200Mbps
250Mbps
