Hello,
Actually, the
server is alternating between IPv4 and IPv6, so if you test and get that IPv4
server is activated, while sending the packets to this server, this latter
might switch to IPv6 and thus your packets will be dropped because the IPv4 server
is not activated anymore.
So, I
suggest you the following approach:
-
Every
time you send a packet, you send to both servers (one to each).
-
The
activated one will answer your request.
-
Both
are implementing the same drop probability, so finding this probability does
not depend on the type of the running server.
-
To
compute the average number of retransmissions before getting an answer from the
server, each time you send a packet to both servers counts as one.
As to your
question: “Also, I got results that gave
me a 100% score in the quiz but I pass only 4/12 tests. Is there an obvious
thing that could explain it ?”, I did not understand it. Which quiz do you
mean? And what do you mean by test?
Best,
Alaeddine
