7) What are the requirements that need to be fulfilled by sequence number in the TCP? 1 point
I. A single sequence number should not represent more than one byte of data
II. The sequence number space of one connection should not overlap with other ongoing
connections, even from other devices in the Internet.
III. Sequence numbers must be positively synchronized.
IV. The sender should always transfer data in the increasing order of the sequence number, and
should never reuse old sequence numbers even for retransmissions.
