	Would this network work correctly with port-forwarding tables if :
	When a network specialist designs a network, one of the problems that he needs to solve is to set the metrics the links in his network. In the USA, the Abilene network interconnects most of the research labs and universities. The figure below shows the topology of this network in 2009.
	What are the advantages and drawbacks of flat addresses versus hierarchical addresses ?

	the router located in `Washington` ?

	The network operator would like to use the following paths :
	The network operator uses would like to have the following paths in this network :
	The network below uses port forwarding with flat addresses. The network boots and all hosts start one after the other. Explain at each step how the packets are forwarded and how the port forwarding tables of the network nodes are modified. Host `C` sends a packet to host `B`. Some time later, host `A` sends a packet to host `C`. Finally, host `B` sends a packet to host `A`.
	The network below uses port forwarding tables. What happens if host `A` moves by removing its link with `R1` and replacing it with a link with `R3`? How should networks using port forwarding deal with such mobile hosts ?
	The network below uses port forwarding tables. It has been running for several hours and all hosts have exchanged packets. What is the content of the port forwarding tables ?
	The Abilene network
	Some hosts need to be multihomed, i.e. attached to two different network nodes as shown in the figure below.
	Same question with virtual circuits.
	Same question as above, but the network is modified as shown in the figure below.
	Routing protocols used in data networks only use positive link weights. What would happen with a distance vector routing protocol in the network below that contains a negative link weight ?
	Routes on E
	Routes on D
	Routes on C
	Routes on B
