Pointers for IT205 November 2009 Final Exam

The final exam paper will consist of 2 sections - Section A containing all objective questions and Section B with essay questions.

Topics that will be tested (based on the textbook Data Communications and Networking 4th Edition by Behrouz A. Forouzan) are those covered in chapters 1, 9, 12-16, 19, 22 and 32.

Suggested topics to focus on for revision:
Section A
