Revise the methods in this sequence; keep every answer tied to its question and units.

1. ALOHA: identify Pure/Slotted → L/R → λT → exponential → S → requested rate units.
2. CSMA: listening does not eliminate propagation-window collisions. CD detects; CA reduces risk.
3. Subnet: prefix → host bits → mask → changing-octet block → network/broadcast → usable hosts.
4. Allocation: addresses or hosts? Equal subnets or VLSM? Largest first, aligned start, no overlap.
5. IPv6: count visible groups → insert to reach eight → pad. Header is 40 bytes; payload excludes those 40.
6. Routing: direction and weights → select Dijkstra or Bellman–Ford → record updates → recover path.
7. Theory: switching comparison, ARP/RARP/DHCP, RIP, OSPF and five OSPF packets.

Yaad rakho: Numerical mein units, prefix, arrow aur requested quantity pehle circle karo.
