Respuesta :
The 802.11 protocol is designed to detect and resolve conflicts between stations when two devices attempt to transmit data at the same time. In this situation, when two stations associated with different ISPs attempt to transmit simultaneously, the protocol will detect the collision and initiate a process of collision resolution.
1. Will the 802.11protocol completely break down in this situation?
- No, the 802.11 protocol will not completely break down in this situation. The protocol is designed to detect and resolve conflicts between stations.
When two stations attempt to transmit at the same time, the protocol will detect the collision and each station will wait a random amount of time before attempting to retransmit the data. If a collision occurs again, the protocol will increase the amount of time each station must wait before attempting to retransmit. This process helps to ensure that only one station can transmit at a time.
2. What happens when two stations, each associated with a different ISP, attempt to transmit at the same time?
When two stations, each associated with a different ISP, attempt to transmit at the same time, a collision is detected by the 802.11 protocol. The protocol then triggers a process of collision resolution, in which each station waits a random amount of time before attempting to retransmit the data. This process continues until only one station is transmitting, thus avoiding further collisions.
