Single Answer
0Which protocol requires the programmer to deal with lost segments?
Answer Options
A
SSL
B
TCP
C
UDP
D
NMS
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) does not guarantee segments are delivered. Therefore, the programmer must account for segments that are never received or out of order. Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol used to encrypt a network transmission. TCP allows for the network to automatically deal with lost segments because TCP guarantees segments are delivered. Network management station (NMS) is a term used with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to describe the collecting host for SNMP messages.
