This document outlines the contents and structure of an examination for the subject of Internet Engineering. It is divided into two parts - Part A and Part B.
Part A covers topics related to communication protocols including SMTP, TCP/IP protocol suite, DNS servers, FSM specifications for RSVP and QA protocols, SDL specifications for ABP and QA protocols, protocol validation, and conformance testing.
Part B covers testing of protocols including types of testing, SDL based performance testing of TCP, interoperability testing of CSMA/CD and CSMA/CA using a bridge, conformance testing architecture, testing architecture for video and audio synchronization, protocol synthesis using an interactive synthesis algorithm, and protocol re-synthesis.
