2. CASE STUDY : 2
Assume these are two management stations – one SNMP based and the other Corba based. The SNMP
based manager does poll based fault management of a device by sending SNMP requests every 2
minutes. The Corba based NMS fault management is fully push based and the NMS receives a
notification when there is a fault. The size of the SNMP request and response PDUS is 150 bytes and
the size of a CORBA notification is about 400 bytes. During 1 hour these are 20 alarms.
Question:
1) Calculate the bandwidth used in both cases.
2) How do you differentiate between both the cases?

3. CASE STUDY : 3
WLAN is created as an air interface 802.11 from 802.3 Ethernet interface. BSS comprises a set of
wireless stations controlled by a wireless termination point (WTP) you have set up your home network
using a wireless access point (WAP), which is connected to the Ethernet output of ADSL coming into
your house.
Question:
1) What are the two modes of MAC types that the WTP could be configured in?
2) Assume that you have a WIFI AP, how is it configured?
3) Write the SNMP query to use to validate your answer in (2)
4) What is your general understanding about the above.

4. CASE STUDY : 4
As a network engineer in a Network Operations Center, you are following up on two trouble tickets.
You do not have a network management system and you have to use the basic network tools to validate
the problem before you can resolve them (i) Please explain what tools you would use in each case and
