While opening a TCP connection, the
initial sequence number is to be derived
using a time-of-day (ToD) clock that keeps
running even when the host is down. The
low order 15 bits of the counter of TOD clock
is to be used for the initial sequence
numbers. The clock counters increments 100
millisecond. The maximum packet lifetime is
given to be 60s. What is the minimum
permissible rate at which sequence numbers
used for packets of a connection can
increase?
(a) 0.015/s (B) 0.018/s (C) 0.135/s (D) 0.327/s
