Question 1

pros and cons of large and small packet sizes

Answer 1

different depending on the data
• Large packet size:
– good for general data.
– “router friendly”.
– “slows” real-time traffic
• Small packet size:
– good for real-time data.
– less end-to-end delay.
– better tolerance to loss.
– (less jitter?).
– less efficient (overhead).
– “not router-friendly”.
