CASE4

1.Since, you purchased a new PC that includes serial mouse,
an internal modem,two hard drives and two SCSI controllers. The
following IRQ remain eligible for use with a NIC are
IRQ3 = for COM2/COM4 or bus Mouses
IRQ4 = for COM1/COM2
IRQ10 = used for primary SCSI controller
IRQ11 = used for secondary SCSI controller

2.In this case it's good to get a minimun cost, it is good to buy a 32 bit bus-
mastering NICs with additionalRAM for all segments.
b.The required result but only one of the optional desired results, i'll use a
minimum cost for the network.
c.To get the required result but neither of the optional desired result, and buy
a expensive hardware for the Network.
d.To get the proposed solution but does not produce the required result.

3. Bob should run a dedicated cable from the server to Bob's machine, and put him on
his own network segment. That way, his laggard performance won't affect anyone
else. 8 bit NE1000 with a 32 bit NE3200 EISA card, he may encounter problems.He
most choice (b).

4. In this case I choice (b) Remove all non essential adapters and install the NIC
then use whateverIRQ's are available to install as many of the other adapters as
you can getworking.There are different method of checking the card to see whether
otherdevices can be found. Use Network Neighborhood and check for all devices on
thenetwork. Another method is to ping known devices by their IP address
