In the following essay, each blank has four choices. Choose the best answer and write down on the answer sheet.

In low - speed network, it is usually adequate to wait for congestion to occur and then react to it by telling the source of packets to slow down. In high - speed networks, this approach often works poorly, because in the (1) between sending the notification and notification arriving at the source, thousands of additional (2) may arrive. In ATM network, a major tool for preventing (3) is (4) control. When a host wants a new virtual (5) , it must describe the traffic to be offered and the service expected.

5（）

A．path

B．rout

C．circuit

D．way

Routing protocols use different techniques for assigning ______ to individual networks. Further, each routing protocol forms a metric aggregation in a different way. Most routing protocols can use multiple paths if the paths have an equal ______ . Some routing protocols can even use multiple paths when paths have an unequal cost. In either case, load ______ can improve overall allocation of network bandwidth. When multiple paths are used, there are several ways to distribute the packets. The two most common mechanisms are per-packet load balancing and per-destination load balancing. Per-packet load balancing distributes the ______ across the possible routes in a manner proportional to the route metrics. Per-destination load balancing distributes packets across the possible routes based on ______.

A. balancing B. uploadingC. downloading D. transmitting
