Task 2 (16 Points) Let's say you work as a network specialist in a company. In this company they find the network shown below, which has grown over several years. The bold lines show 1 Gb/s connectivity and thin lines 100 Mb/s connectivity. The numbers on nodes can be used to reference a particular node. 15 10 14 11 13 12 8 4 1 7 6 5 b) Explain two weaknesses of the featured network. Note that it is not enough to write that a certain network parameter is bad. Please explain the impact of the weak point. (2) c) Modify the network so that both the bisection bandwidth and the diameters will be improved. In doing so none of the other network parameters should be degraded. Note that a higher network degree is considered an invalid degradation. For the new network, you must have the same number of nodes and the same number of connec- tions using any type of connection as in the original network. Calculate the bisection bandwidth and the diameter of the improved network..(4+2) Task 2 (16 Points) Let's say you work as a network specialist in a company.
