List I List II A. Count to infinity problem I. Mobile Adhoc Networks B. IEEE 802.16 II. Distance vector routing C. IEEE 802.15 III. WIMAX D. AODV protocol IV. Bluetooth
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
This section explains the correct matching between the items listed in List I and List II, focusing on networking concepts and standards.
We need to connect each item from List I (A, B, C, D) to its corresponding item in List II (I, II, III, IV).
The Count to infinity problem is a well-known issue associated with Distance vector routing protocols. This problem arises when routing loops occur, causing routing update messages to circulate indefinitely, making the path cost appear infinite. Therefore, A matches with II.
IEEE 802.16 is a set of standards for Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (WMANs). The most prominent implementation and commercial name associated with this standard is WIMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access), which provides broadband wireless access. Thus, B matches with III.
The IEEE 802.15 standard specifies protocols for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs). Bluetooth technology, designed for short-range communication between devices like phones, headphones, and computers, operates under this standard. Therefore, C matches with IV.
The AODV (Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) protocol is a routing protocol specifically designed for use in Mobile Adhoc Networks (MANETs). It allows nodes to discover routes only when needed, making it efficient for dynamic network environments. Hence, D matches with I.
Here is a summary table showing the correct pairings:
| List I Item | Description | List II Item | Matching Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| A. Count to infinity problem | A routing loop issue | II. Distance vector routing | A type of routing protocol |
| B. IEEE 802.16 | Wireless MAN standard | III. WIMAX | Broadband wireless standard |
| C. IEEE 802.15 | Wireless PAN standard | IV. Bluetooth | Short-range wireless technology |
| D. AODV protocol | Routing protocol | I. Mobile Adhoc Networks | Network type |
Based on the individual matches derived above:
This combination corresponds to the correct answer.
