Question

Assume the HTTP client in the previous problem closes the connection and, at the same time, acknowledges the bytes received in the response from the server. After receiving the FIN segment from the client, the server also closes the connection in the other direction. Show the connection termination phase.

Answer 1

In the connection termination phase, the HTTP client closes the connection by sending a FIN segment, and the server also closes the connection in the other direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the connection termination phase, the HTTP client sends a FIN (finish) segment to indicate that it no longer has data to send. At the same time, it acknowledges the bytes received in the response from the server. Upon receiving the FIN segment, the server also sends a FIN segment and closes the connection in the other direction.
