Networking for Home and Small Businesses – Chapter 5 Network Addressing Networking for Home and Small Businesses – Chapter 5
Purpose of an IP Address A logical network address that identifies a host A host (end-user) must have a NIC card workstations servers printers router interface Each packet will contain a source and destination IP address Packet Tracer Activity Cisco I 5.1.1.2
IP addresses IP Version 4 32 binary digits 4 octets most common form of IP addresses 32 binary digits 4 octets Dotted decimal notation Over 4 billion possible IP addresses IP Version 6 will soon become the standard to ensure we have enough addresses to use
Binary Numbers The IP address is made up of binary numbers (1 or 0) Humans must be able to talk computer language to send data We do this by converting our numbering system (Base 10 to binary) Let’s try some . . . Convert 140 to binary Convert 10 to binary Convert 11010111 to Base 10 Convert 11111110 to Base 10 Time to play a game -- Online Activity 5.1.2.3
Parts of an IP Address Hierarchical Similar to your phone number made up of 2 parts network host(Id’s the specific device) determined by IP class Similar to your phone number Area code = network phone number = host(specific location) Go to page 5.1.2.3 to see how network addresses are used
Purpose of the Subnet Mask Helps identify the network Boolean math or “ANDING” What happens if both source and destination IP are on the same network?? What happens if they are not??
Copy Into Your Notes On page 5.2.1.1 copy the chart of IP Address Classes
Types of IP Addresses Class A Range 1-127 N.H.H.H First bit in octet will be a 0 Default subnet mask 255.0.0.0 can create over 16 million host addresses – the most host addresses available in networking 224 – 2 = 16,777,214 to be exact why do you subtract 2??? Used in large organizations
Types of IP Addresses Class B Range 128-191 N.N.H.H 16 bits for network and 16 bits for host Default subnet mask 255.255.0.0 can create over 65,000 host addresses 216 – 2 = 65,534 to be exact Used in medium-sized organizations
Types of IP Addresses Class C Range 192 -223 N.N.N.H First two bits in octet will be a 11 Default subnet mask 255.255.255.0 can create 254 useable hosts 28 – 2 = 254 to be exact Used in small organizations
Types of IP Addresses Class D Class E Range 224 - 239 used for multicasting not for commercial use Class E Range 240 - 255 reserved for experimental use
Activity On page 5.2.1.2 use the activity to test your skills looking at IP addresses and determining their default subnet mask.
Private IP Addresses Solves the issue of a finite number of available public IP addresses Allows hosts to communicate locally without each device needing a public IP address Not routed on the Internet; blocked by the ISP router Private address ranges Class A – 10.0.0.0 Class B – 172.16.0.0 – 172.31.0.0 Class C – 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.0
Activity On page 5.2.2.3 can you determine which addresses are private and need to be blocked and which addresses are public and need to be passed through the router?
Unicast Address Most common type of address Intended for a specific host, has a specific IP Address Talking to a person on the phone is an example Must have both destination IP and MAC in the header
Broadcast Address All ones in the host portion of the IP address Class C address: 204.33.4.0 (N.N.N.H) Broadcast address: 204.33.4.255 MAC address all Fs FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF
Multicast Address Send packet to a group of devices Must use multicast address range Range 224.0.0.0 – 239.255.255.255 Used for remote gaming Destination MAC address begins with: 01-00-5E
Activity On page 5.2.3.4 can you determine who the message will go to based on the address. Is the message a uni-cast, multicast or broadcast. Think back to how we identified these items on the last few slides.
Using Static IP Addressing Manually configured by the network administrator Advantages useful for printers, servers, etc increased control of resources (security) Disadvantages time consuming
Using Dynamic IP Addressing Automatic assignment of IP addresses Useful if frequent change in users (wireless hotspot) Uses DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server IP addresses leased for a period of time if host is removed from the network (turned off), the IP address goes back into the pool of IP address Preferred method for large networks reduces the burden of network support
DHCP DHCP dynamically assigns an IP address to a host A PC obtains its IP address from a DHCP server. If the PC is taken off the network for repair, what happens to the IP address configuration? The addresses is returned to the pool for reuse when the lease expires.
Configuring DHCP If host is configured as DHCP client, it will not have a IP address Subnet Mask Default Gateway Clients send a DHCP Discover Message The message comes from a client seeking an IP address The destination IP address of the message is 255.255.255.255. All hosts receive the message, but only a DHCP server replies
Obtaining an IP address from DHCP server Multifunction device (Linksys Router) provides services to clients (SOHO network) If a host connects to a Linksys integrated router that is also a DHCP server and receives an IP address from it. Which address does the host need to access the ISP and the Internet? - Internal IP address of the integrated router that connects to the local network
Packet Tracer Configure a DHCP Server within a network. Open packet tracer and open the file Cisco I 5.3.3.3 and follow the instructions for successful completion.
Purpose of a Gateway Used by the router to provide the path through which hosts on one network can communicate with hosts on a different network Default gateway address IP address of the router interface If DHCP is being used the DHCP server will automatically send the correct IP interface to the host to use as the default gateway
Address Assignment ISR (Integrated Services Router) Default IP address Class C Private Address Configured on router interface Internal hosts must be assigned addresses within the same network
Address Management Direct Connection direct connection from PC to ISP through modem public address assigned to the host Connection through Integrated Router more than one host needs access to the Internet modem connected to ISR Connection through Gateway Device ISR and modem in one unit connect directly to ISP
Using NAT with a Home or Small Business Network NAT (Network Address Translation) Packets that stay local are not translated using NAT Only packets destined for different network use NAT NAT Prevents external users from detecting the IP addresses used on a network With NAT, a private (local) source IP address is translated to a public (global) address. The process is reversed for incoming packets.
Refer to the graphic. NAT and DHCP are installed on the Linksys integrated router. Which IP address is most likely to be assigned to the local computer, Host1? 10.0.0.17 128.107.1.2 192.135.250.0 209.165.201.1 Why would this address be chosen? 10.0.0.17 because it is the only private IP address within the range.
Chapter Quiz Take the chapter 5 quiz found on page 5.6.1.1 to test your knowledge over IP addresses and the uses of the address in most networks around the world.
