Previous Year Question (PYQs)



In Go-back-N protocol, the values of $S_f$ (Send window, the first outstanding packet) $=3$, $S_n$ (Send window, the next packet to be send) $=7$, after receiving the packet with AckNo. $6$, the value of $S_n$ is ______





Solution

In Go-back-N protocol,

$S_f$ = first outstanding packet

$S_n$ = next packet to be sent

Given,

$S_f=3$

$S_n=7$

AckNo. $6$ means packets before $6$ are acknowledged.

So, $S_f$ becomes $6$.

But $S_n$ remains unchanged because next packet to be sent is still $7$.

Therefore,

$S_n=7$

So, correct option is:

$\boxed{(b)\ 7}$
