1. Higher Computing Network Protocols, the OSI model and IP addresses

2. What is a protocol? A set of rules agreed upon in order to communicate successfully. These might include: Data format Transfer speed Handshaking Flow Control

3. Application Layer Protocols Remote access – Telnet File Transfer – FTP Information Access – HTTP HTTPS Email – SMTP and POP3

4. Application Layer Protocols Telnet – used to make a remote connection to computer FTP connect (password required) upload and download files – remains connected HTTP – connect to web server, retrieve file, then disconnect POP3 download mail from mail server – password required SMTP upload mail to mail server – originally no password required

5. Telnet

6. FTP Open hostname Connected to hostname 220-Microsoft FTP Service User (hostname): anonymous 331 Annonymous access allowed, send identity (e-mail name) as password Password: username@school.mail 230 Anonymous user logged in. cd remote folder 250 CWD command successful.

14. Lower level protocols Transmission Control protocol –TCP Internet Protocol – IP User Datagram Protocol UDP

15. TCP Transmission Control Protocol: Sending Breaks data to be transmitted into packets Each packet is given a header which contains: a sequence number The sender and recipient IP address If an acknowledgement is not received then the packet is retransmitted

16. TCP Transmission Control Protocol: Receiving Reassembles packets received according to sequence number Sends an acknowledgement Waits for any missing packets

17. IP Internet Protocol Adds a header to each packet (or datagram) for routing using sender and recipient IP IP does not always know the final destination of a packet – only the IP address of the next router along the line Packets may take different routes and take different lengths of time to be delivered

18. UDP User Datagram Protocol Like TCP but does not ask for re-delivery of lost packets Used for: – network troubleshooting –audio or video streaming

19. OSI Network Layers Open Systems Interconnection 76543217654321

20. Transparency and Independence Each layer has a specific task to perform. Functions which are similar are grouped together within layers. Each layer only knows about its immediately adjacent layers. A layer uses the services of the layer below and provides services to the layer above The internal design of a layer is independent of the functions it provides

21. Provides a set of interfaces for applications to obtain access to networked services This layer can be replaced with: Email client, Internet Browser, Web server, Mail server etc. Protocols: HTTP, SMTP, POP3, FTP, NNTP etc 7: Application Layer

22. 6: Presentation Layer Handles data format information for networked communications. This is done by converting data into a standardised format that can be understood by both sides This layer deals with: Encryption and data conversion

23. 5: Session Layer The Session layer permits two parties to hold on-going communications called a Session across a network.. This layer is responsible for : Starting or stopping a communication session, managing logon and password authentication. The Domain Name Service (DNS)

24. 4: Transport Layer Ensures delivery of entire file or message using packet sequencing and packet acknowledgement This layer deals with: : Error detection and correction Protocols: TCP, UDP

25. 3: Network Layer Routes data to different LANs or WANs based on network address This layer deals with: Packet Routing, IP forwarding Protocols: IP, ICMP

26. 2: Data Link Layer Transmits packets from node to node based on its station address This layer deals with: : synchronisation, putting data into frames along with error checking data Protocol: Ethernet (CSMACD)

27. 1: Physical Layer Provides a Physical Connection Examples are: Cat5 Ethernet Cable, Fibre optic cable, Wireless

28. Mapping TCP/IP to OSI ISO/OSI model Internet Architecture Model Protocols / Standards Application Layer Telnet, FTP, POP3, SMTP, DNS Presentation Layer Session Layer Transport Layer TCP, UDP Network LayerInternet Layer IP, ICMP Data Link Network Layer SLIP, PPP, Ethernet, Token Ring (FDDI), ATM Physical Layer

29. Network Identities For any network protocol every computer (host) must have a unique identity. Computer Name Ethernet – MAC address TCP/IP – IP address

30. Application Network Data Link Physical Application Network Data Link Physical File Packet (IP Address) Frame (MAC Address) Data (10110111)

31. Application Network Data Link Physical Application Network Data Link Physical Router Identifies packets by IP address

32. Application Network Data Link Physical Application Network Data Link Physical Switch Identifies frames by MAC address

33. Application Network Data Link Physical Layer Application Network Data Link HUB Repeats frames Physical Layer

34. IP addresses and DNS Every computer on the Internet must have a unique IP address to identify it. An IP address consists of four 8-bit numbers called octets Since these numbers are not easy to remember, domain names are used as a more user friendly way of identifying machines The Domain Name Service (DNS) translates Domain names into IP addresses

35. IP Addresses four 8 bit numbers (octets) which can range from 00000000 to 11111111 ie. 0 to 255 eg. 192.168.0 1 11000000 10101000 00000000 00000001

36. Classes of IP Address Class A: nnn.hhh.hhh.hhh 1 st octet = 1 to 126 Class B: nnn.nnn.hhh.hhh 1 st octet = 128 to 191 Class C: nnn.nnn.nnn.hhh 1 st octet = 192 to 223 Class D nnn.hhh.hhh.hhh 1 st octet = 224 to 239 Class E nnn.hhh.hhh.hhh 1 st octet = 240 to 255 n = network h = host

37. Classes of IP Address Class A:16 million addresses per block Class B: 65000 addresses per block Class C: 254 addresses per block Class D Multicast Class E Broadcast (Experimental)

38. Private IP addresses (inside a LAN) Class A 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 Class B 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 Class C 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 Used with a proxy server and Network Address Translation (NAT) Localhost: 127.0.0.1

39. Static and Dynamic IP addressing Static – fixed IP address Dynamic – IP address allocated by a server (DHCP server on a LAN, or provided by your ISP on a WAN)
