2 persons are using a channel like TCP. In their link they have used 64-bit sequence numbers with a link speed of 75 Tbps. How long can a packet stay in link without worrying about problem of having 2 packets with same sequence numbers? ans-3 weeks

bandwidth of channel is given as 75 Tbps means in 1 second 75 Tb data can be transmitted

means $\frac{75\ TB}{8}$ data can be transmitted in 1 second .

$1\ B \rightarrow \frac{8\  sec}{75*10^{12}}$.

there are given 64 bits for sequence bits. ,so we can use $2^{64}$ sequence no uniquely.

 for $2^{64}$ sequence no. we can use $2^{64}$ bytes data.

$2^{64}\ B \rightarrow \frac{8\ }{75*10^{12}}*2^{64} seconds$.=1967652 seconds

wraparound time =1967652 seconds=546.57 hours=22.7 days=3.2 weeks =around 3 weeks.

1sec = 75 TB = 75*1000GB

​​​​2^64*1/75000*2^30 sec = 1B

229064.9225sec=

63.629 hrs=

2.65 days=

as 7 days = 1week

    2.65days=.375 weeks

TCP operates over a 40 Gbps link. If TCP uses the full bandwidth continuously, how long (in msec) would it take the sequence number to wrap around completely?
