Problem 3, I haven't a clue, but problem 4 is the classical Dijkstra/Bellman-Ford algorithm problem. To build the routing table for each node step-by-sptep would consume much paper! -Chris

I have implemented hundreds of networks and designed them over the years but I have not a clue on these questions. I realize that this is much more towards hardware design, but I know that many of us have background there. Networking design 101problem 3: clearly illustrate the design of a knockout crossbar switch that enables an output port to choose packets from 9 input ports simultaneously in a 12x12 switch. your switch design must use the FEWEST number of 2x2 switching elements. problem 4: consider the network topology given in figure 2. the label for each of the links in the figure denotes the delay experience by any packet traversing the link (in either direction). each node is assumed to initially know the delays of its outgoing links and all links are assumed to be bi-directional. clearly show the routing table ofnode A step bystep, from the initial state to the final state (when the routing table stabilizes), for the following two cases: o when the routing algorithm is the Distance Vector algorithm o when the routing algorithm is the Link State algorithm __ 3 __B__ 4 __ / \ A------- 5 -------C\ H |\ | \ / | 2 | 1 2 1 \ | \ / | E 6 / D | | 3 F------- 9 -------G/
