Suppose TCP operates over a 1-Gbps link. (a) Assuming TCP could utilize the full bandwidth continuously, how long would it take the sequence numbers to wrap around completely? (b) Suppose an added 32-bit timestamp field increments 1000 times during the wraparound time you found above. How long would it take for the timestamp to wrap around?
