Explanation of Solution

Difference between centralized and distributed routing algorithm:

Centralized routing algorithmDistributed routing algorithm

Centralized routing algorithm calculates the least-cost path between the source and destination by reviewing overall knowledge about the network which is under computation.

Distributed routing algorithm calculates the least-cost path in the distributed manner by the routers.

It requires entire knowledge about the connectivity between all nodes and also needs the link’s cost.

The node available in the distributed routing algorithm does not have information about the network link cost and so the algorithm does not have the knowledge about the link cost.

The calculation will be processing at one side or it could be replicate in the routing component of the other available router.

Each node starts with only the knowledge of the cost of its own directly attached links. It uses an iterative process and through information exchange with the neighboring nodes to calculates the least-cost path to a destination.

Link state algorithm stands as an example for centralized routing algorithm...

When you connect your device to Wi-Fi, what happens "under the hood"? Explain in detail, with pictures, what it's like.
You will write a program that allows the user to keep track of college locations and details about each location. To begin you will create a College python class that keeps track of the csollege's unique id number, name, address, phone number, maximum students, and average tuition cost. Once you have built the College class, you will write a program that stores College objects in a dictionary while using the College's unique id number as the key. The program should display a menu in this order that lets the user: 1) Add a new College 2) Look up a College 4) Delete an existing College 5) Change an existing College's name, address, phone number, maximum guests, and average tuition cost. 6) Exit the program
