In the following question, you will compare the performance of gbn, sr and tcp reno (no delayed ack). assume that the timeout values for all three protocols are sufficiently long such that 5 consecutive data segments and their corresponding acks can be received (if not lost in the channel) by the receiving host (host b) and the sending host (host a) respectively. suppose host a sends 5 data segments to host b, and the 2nd segment (sent from a) is lost. in the end, all 5 data segments are correctly received by host b.(a) how many segments has host a sent in total and how many acks has host b sent in total? what
are their sequence number? answer this question for all three protocols.
(b) if the timeout values for all three protocols are much longer than 5 rtt, then which protocol
successfully delivers all five data segments in the shortest time interval?
