24. Features of Home Network
Network and devices have to be easy to install
Read the Manual
Reboot the computer
Remove all the hardware and software except ours and try again
Download Newest driver
Reformat the harddisk
Networks and Devices have to be foolproof in operation
(no big manuals)
Low Price (will pay a little extra atmost)

25. Features of Home Network
Main application is likely to involve multimedia, so the network needs sufficient capacity Possible to start out with one or two devices and expand the reach Security and reliability will be very important Burglars disarm ones security

26. Internetworks
Some LANS connected through WANS Distinct networks are connected

27. Network Software Protocol Hierarchies Design Issues for the Layers

31. Design Issues for the Layers
Addressing
Error Control
Flow Control
Multiplexing
Routing

32. Connection-Oriented and Connectionless Services
Connection – oriented (telephonic system) Sender, receiver and subnet needs to have a negotiation about the parameters to be used such as maximum message size, quality of services required and other issues Connection-less (postal service) Quality of Service

33. Connection-Oriented and Connectionless Services
Request-reply – Client issues request, server answers.
Six different types of service.

34. Service Primitives
Listen – server, Connect – client to server and then connection is established
Five service primitives for implementing a simple connection-oriented service.

35. Service Primitives (2)
Packets sent in a simple client-server interaction on a connection-oriented network.

36. Difficulties
Unreliable networks Synchronization problem

37. Services to Protocols Relationship
Service – Abstract Data Type or an object in an object-oriented language
The relationship between a service and a protocol.

38. Reference Models The OSI Reference Model The TCP/IP Reference Model
A Comparison of OSI and TCP/IP
A Critique of the OSI Model and Protocols
A Critique of the TCP/IP Reference Model

39. A layer is created where a different abstraction is needed Each layer should perform a well-defined function The function of each layer should be chosen with an eye toward defining internationally standardized protocols The layer boundary should be chosen to minimize the information flow across interfaces The number of layers should be large enough that distinct functions need not be thrown together out of necessity and small enough that the architecture does not become unweildy

40. The OSI reference model.
Reference Models
The OSI reference model.

41. Physical Layer (questions)
How many volts should be used to represent 1 How many nanoseconds a bit lasts Transmission may proceed in one direction or multiple direction How intitial connection established How many pins the network connector has

42. DataLink
Raw transmission facility in a line that appears free of undetected errors to the network layer. Data frames  acknowledgement frame

Concepts central to the OSI model
Services
Interfaces
Protocols
TCP – retrofit/
OSI – DataLink Layer (point-to-point)

47. Differences between OSI and TCP/IP model
OSI model supports connectionless and connection-oriented communication in the network layer but only connection-oriented communication in the transport layer TCP/IP model has one mode in the network layer (connectionless) but supports both modes in the transport layer

48. A Critique of the OSI Model and Protocols
Why OSI did not take over the world
Bad timing
Bad technology
Bad implementations
Bad politics

49. The apocalypse of the two elephants. (Standard came much later)
Bad Timing
The apocalypse of the two elephants. (Standard came much later)

50. Bad Implementation
Initial version were huge, unwieldy and slow. Bad Politics TCP/IP part of Unix, OSI – governement pushed

51. A Critique of the TCP/IP Reference Model
Problems:
Service, interface, and protocol not distinguished
Not a general model
Host-to-network “layer” not really a layer
No mention of physical and data link layers
Minor protocols deeply entrenched, hard to replace
