Q27

NAT2 marks

Every host in an IPv4\textsf{IPv4} network has a 1-second1\text{-second} resolution real-time clock with battery backup. Each host needs to generate up to 10001000 unique identifiers per second. Assume that each host has a globally unique IPv4\textsf{IPv4} address. Design a 50-bit50\text{-bit} globally unique ID for this purpose. After what period (in seconds) will the identifiers generated by a host wrap around?
