200-301 · Question #1581

Drag and Drop Question Drag and drop the common functions from the left onto the conresponding network topology architecture layer on the right. Not all common functions are used. Answer:

The correct answer is uses a three-way handshake; preferred for web browsing; provides a reliable connection; faster data transmission; used for streaming and VoIP; connectionless protocol. The correct arrangement maps TCP characteristics (uses a three-way handshake, preferred for web browsing, provides a reliable connection) to TCP and UDP characteristics (faster data transmission, used for streaming and VoIP, connectionless protocol) to UDP. TCP is a connection-or

Correct arrangement

  • uses a three-way handshake
  • preferred for web browsing
  • provides a reliable connection
  • faster data transmission
  • used for streaming and VoIP
  • connectionless protocol

Explanation

The correct arrangement maps TCP characteristics (uses a three-way handshake, preferred for web browsing, provides a reliable connection) to TCP and UDP characteristics (faster data transmission, used for streaming and VoIP, connectionless protocol) to UDP. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol that establishes sessions via a three-way handshake, guarantees reliable delivery, and is ideal for HTTP/HTTPS web traffic. UDP sacrifices reliability for speed, making it connectionless and preferred for real-time applications like streaming and VoIP where low latency matters more than guaranteed delivery.
