Which one of the following is not a valid acknowledgement frame?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

RTS is not a valid acknowledgement frame. RTS stands for Request To Send, and it is a control frame that is used to initiate an RTS/CTS exchange before sending a data frame. The purpose of an RTS/CTS exchange is to reserve the medium for a data transmission and avoid collisions with hidden nodes. An acknowledgement frame is a control frame that is used to confirm the successful reception of a data frame or a block of data frames. The valid acknowledgement frames are CTS (Clear To Send), Ack (Acknowledgement), and Block Ack (Block Acknowledgement) .

RTS? What is this, a game of charades? I thought we were talking about networking protocols, not mime.

Ack, of course! What else would you expect for an acknowledgement frame? This is too easy.

CTS is for Clear-to-Send, not an acknowledgement. Whoever came up with these options is just messing with us.

CTS, Ack, and Block Ack all sound legit, but RTS? Nah, that's a hard pass. Definitely going with A on this one.

Block Ack? Sounds like a wrestling move, not a networking term. I'm going with C, Ack, for the win.

Ack is the way to go! What kind of certification exam is this anyway, where they're trying to trick us with RTS?
