Which of the following statements is true about the stop-and-wait ARQ protocol?



Stop-and-wait is only efficient if the link delay-bandwidth product is small

Consider a situation where an interactive application produces a packet to send each keystroke from the
client and the server echoes each keystroke that it receives from the client. Which of following
strategies for sending ACK frames in a Go-Back-N is appropriate for the situation?

Send an ACK frame after every other frame is received

Send an ACK frame when the next piggyback opportunity arises

Any one of the above ✔️C
