Data is sent over a network from a source to a destination. The data cannot be sent until it has been encapsulated, that is, packaged up into a suitable form to be transmitted over the network.’ Based on the quotes above, explain the steps must be performed in order to encapsulate the data to segment, packet/datagram, frame and bits

Do you think it's feasible to design a data-transfer protocol that prevents every conceivable problem from occurring? If so, please be more precise.
When the size of data is more than the protocol data unit, data is to multiple frames.
What is the address of a private network on the public Internet? Is it acceptable for a datagram to be sent out on the public Internet if it contains the address of a private network? Explanation.
How may the duration between bytes change during asynchronous transmissions?
Explain how headers are inserted as a data packet goes from the lower to the top levels.
A 4000 octet user data is to be transmitted over a network which supports a maximum user data size of 536 octets. Assuming the header in each IP data gram requires 20 octets, derive the number of datagrams (fragments) required and the contents of the following fields: Identification Total length Fragment offset More Fragments flag
In the world of data communication, the most well-known kind of equipment is the modem A carrier signal is modulated and demodulated in order to decipher the digital information that has been transmitted. It is necessary to generate a signal that can easily be transmitted and decoded in order to reproduce the original digital data in this manner. Explain briefly how the modem achieves these goals.
1. This question is about Networks The following diagram shows a set of interconnected networks. The six networks (networks 1-6) are shown as labelled ellipses and the machines (A-K) connected to the networks represented as letters. Some machines (such as C, and E) are connected to multiple networks and are set to forward packets between the two networks. For the purposes of this questions, machines will be addressed using the format 1.A where the number refers to the network the machine is connected and the letter identifies the machine. Machines connected to multiple networks can be addressed using multiple addresses – for example, machine c can be referred to as 1.c or 2.c depending on which network it is talking to. E- Network 3 -F Network 4 Network 1 Network 2 H. A Network 5 K The network is configured to use next-hop routing. In the following questions, you are required to specify the address of the next-hop where a machine should send a packet, If it is not on the same (local)…
Is it feasible to create a single protocol that covers all issues that arise during data communication?If so, how so?
To begin, what is an IP address and how does it work? Is there a reason to use mnemonic addresses? How many domains can be represented in a 32-bit representation? Exists a limit to the size of a domain in terms of the number of computers it can hold?
What are the primary functions of sequence numbers and timers in trustworthy data transfer protocols?
The minimum number of columns in a datagram network is two; the minimum number of columns in a virtual-circuit network is four. Can you explain the reason? Is the difference related to the type of addresses carried in the packets of each network?
