9. The design of the Internet protocol suites adhere to the ________ principle.
a) Data corruption
b) Connection oriented
c) End to End principle
d) Reliability
Answer: c
Clarification: The design of the Internet protocol suite adheres to the end to end principle, a concept adapted from the CYCLADES project. Under the end to end principle, the network infrastructure is considered inherently unreliable at any signal network element or transmission medium and is dynamic in terms of availability of links and notes.
