P.1
a. For N= 4,L= 3200, B = 9600, P = 1024, H = 16, S = 0.2, D = 0.001, compute the end - to - end delay for circuit switching. Assume that there is no node delay.

P.2
a. Station > node>central>node>station
In a star network of N nodes the average number of hops would be 2.
c. Station > node>node>station
In a fully connected network of N nodes the average number of hops would be 1.
P.3
Layer 2 regulates the flow between DTE and DCE
Layer 3 regulates the flow over a signal virtual circuit
P.4
The virtual; circuit number has only local significance not global.
