In lab Assignment 7


In this lab we are going to explore the Congestion Avoidance mechanism of TCP. We will see how TCP connections interact with each other in presence of congestion and how it interacts with UDP connections.
The network that you will simulate will consist of 6 nodes, in the topology depicted in the following figure.


All the links will have 1.5 Mbps of bandwidth and 20 ms of delay. Each node will use a DropTail queue, of which the maximum size is 10. The simulation should run for 5 seconds.

Note that you should run the simulation with trace logging enabled.
