Question: Consider 9 packets that arrive simultaneously at a router that does not currently have any packets queued or being transmitted. The size of each packet

  1. Consider 9 packets that arrive simultaneously at a router that does not currently have any packets queued or being transmitted. The size of each packet is 1200 bytes, and they all need to be sent on the same outgoing link, which has a transmission rate of 16 Mbps.
    1. What is the maximum queuing delay experienced by one of these 9 packets (in milliseconds)?
    2. What is the minimum queuing delay experienced by one of these 9 packets (in milliseconds)?
    3. What is the average queuing delay for these 9 packets (in milliseconds)?
    4. What if the queue can only hold 5 packets? What is the maximum queuing delay in this case? And what happens to the other 4 packets?
