Answers

Answer 1.
(a) A switch would serve the required purpose. Along with that, a switch is also responsible for filtering, i.e. transforming data in a specific way and for forwarding packets between LAN segments.
(b) Domain Name System (DNS) is a network service that translates domain name to the associated IP address.
(c) An advantage of star topology In star topology, the central node is connected directly to every other node in the network means that faults are easily detected and isolated.
A disadvantage of star topology If the central node in the star network fails, the entire network goes down.
(d) Hubs should be preferred over repeaters when more than two computers are to be connected in a network while repeaters are only used for signal modification.
(e) In packet switched networks, the message gets broken into small data packets. These packets are sent out from the computer and they travel around the network seeking out the
most efficient route to travel as circuits become available.
(f) Four criteria for distribution of OSS are as follows:
(i) No discrimination against person on groups.
(ii) No discrimination against fields of endeavor.
(iii) License must not be specific to a product.
(iv) License must not restricted other software.
(g) In order to use FTP effectively, one need to be an authorised user. However, anonymous FTP (i.e. logging in as an anonymous user) is a method whereby FTP server allows the general public to access files on an FTP server. Uploading of files refer to the transfer of files from one’s computer onto FTP server. An anonymous user generally is not allowed to upload files.

Output of code
(i) 12 (ii)2 4
(e)

(i) private int compareSqr (int a, int b) 
{
