IP (Internet Protocol)

Mainly provides multiple routes or Routing capabilities.

Protocol Characteristics:

Connectionless, Unreliable IP Addressing:

Every host in TCP/IPnetwork has one 32-bit IP address. 140.131.76.1

IP Address Formats





Network Mask

Set 1 for bits in Network Address and Subnet, and set 0 for other bits in IP address Class A 255.0.0.0 Class B 255.255.0.0 Class C 255.255.255.0

IP address Logical AND (Network Mask, IP Address)


Routers and the IP Addressing Principle

• Routers have two or more addresses. One for each interface.


Routing Table

IF ((Mask[i] & Destination Addr) = = Destination[i])

Forward to NextHop[i]


IP Forwarding Process


IF ((Mask[i] & Destination Addr) = = Destination[i])

Forward to NextHop[i]


Port

Each host’s application layer (or processing layer) may have different application, service, or resource. Once a host received data from network, transport layer should have a mechanism to provide and distinquish network application service so that it could send data to correct processing program.

Each upper-level communication application service or program maps to a unique TCP or UDP Port Number.

3. Network Elements

Repeater Hub Bridge SwitchRouterRouting SwitchGateway


Repeater

Operates at Layer 1, the physical layer. Connects two network segments into one large

segment, or to expand an existing segment. Enhances data signals and thus can be used to

extend maximum cabling distances. There is no network intelligence built into a simple

repeater; it is used strictly for signal propagation.


Hub

Operates at Layer 1, the physical layer. Simply a multiport repeater. Can be used to increase overall network size and

number of nodes on a single segment. Can isolate faults within the subnet. Allows you to add stations to a segment without

disrupting the entire network.


Bridge

Operates at Layer 2, the data link layer. Allows networks with different physical signaling, but

with compatible data link addressing schemes, to communicate.

Helps reduce traffic on a backbone LAN by filtering any information coming from one segment to another that does not need to be forwarded through the backbone.

A common use for a bridge is to allow users on an Ethernet LAN and a Token Ring LAN to communicate with each other.

Switch

Operates at Layer 2, the data link layer. Dispatches data to its destination, which it

determines from the packet’s lower-layer media access control (MAC) address.

Can limit traffic, and does not understand network protocols.


Router

Operates at Layer 3, the network layer. Connects two networks with different

technologies, and provides an intelligent means of transferring packets from one network to the other.

Also forwards traffic among multiple hubs and bridges.

Routing Switch

Operates at Layer 3, the network layer. Combines the intelligence of a router with the

efficiency of a switch, Routing data at higher speeds.


Gateway

Operates at Layer 7, the application layer. Can encompass all seven of the OSI model

layers. A computing system that can be programmed to

do any number of intricate protocol conversions and negotiations, such as between IP and IPX.



4. Network Management related Protocols

SNMPv1SNMPv2CICMPARP/RARPDHCP


SNMPv1 (Simple Network Management Protocol version 1)

The most common management protocol in use in data networks. Provides a means of obtaining information from, and sending

information to, network devices. Based on the manager-agent model. Uses Management Information Bases (MIBs) to exchange

information between the manager and the agent. Using the SNMP protocol, a manager can query and modify the

status and configuration information on each managed device by making requests to the agent running on the managed device.

All commands use the UDP/IP protocol, which means that communication between the manager and the agent is connectionless.

SNMP operates at Layer 7, the application layer.


SNMPv2C (version 2)

SNMPv2C includes the basic functions of SNMPv1. Adds

new message types, standardized multi-protocol support, enhanced security, new MIB objects, and a way to co-exist with SNMPv1.

SNMPv2C is useful for the retrieval of large amounts of management information using fewer network resources.


ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol)

ICMP is the part of IP that handles error and control messages.

ICMP operates at Layer 3, the network layer. ICMP supports an echo function, which sends a packet

on a round-trip between two hosts. Ping, which sends a signal to see if an interface is up

and running, is based on ICMP echo. ICMP can also send an address mask request that

returns the address of the subnet mask on the remote system. This feature is important for non-SNMP devices.


ARP/RARP (Address Resolution Protocol / Reverse ARP)

ARP/RARP are used at Layer 2, the link layer, ARP is used to map an IP address to a MAC (or

link level, or hardware) address. RARP is used to map a MAC address to an IP

address.


DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

DHCP allows IP addresses to be allocated on a temporary basis (a lease).

When the lease for an IP address expires, the address can be reused by a different node.

This is useful in environments supporting mobile users who connect to the network with a laptop from many different places.

This helps alleviate the problem of limited IP addresses and simplifies TCP/IP client configurations.
