Network Layer 3 IP Addressing IP address: 32-bit identifier for host, router interface interface: connection between host/router and physical link routers typically have multiple interfaces host may have multiple interfaces IP addresses associated with interface, not host or router 223.1.1.1 223.1.1.2 223.1.1.3 223.1.1.4 223.1.2.9 223.1.2.2 223.1.2.1 223.1.3.2 223.1.3.1 223.1.3.27 223.1.1.1 = 11011111 00000001 00000001 00000001 223 111

Network Layer 4 IP Addressing IP address: network part (high order bits) host part (low order bits) What’s a network ? ( from IP address perspective) device interfaces with same network part of IP address can physically reach each other without intervening router 223.1.1.1 223.1.1.2 223.1.1.3 223.1.1.4 223.1.2.9 223.1.2.2 223.1.2.1 223.1.3.2 223.1.3.1 223.1.3.27 network consisting of 3 IP networks (for IP addresses starting with 223, first 24 bits are network address) LAN

Network Layer 10 IP packet format ver length 32 bits data (variable length, typically a TCP or UDP segment) 16-bit identifier Internet checksum time to live 32 bit source IP address IP protocol version number header length (bytes) max number remaining hops (decremented at each router) for fragmentation/ reassembly total datagram length (bytes) upper layer protocol to deliver payload to head. len type of service “type” of data flgs fragment offset upper layer 32 bit destination IP address Options (if any) E.g. timestamp, record route taken, specify list of routers to visit.
11
Network Layer 11 IP Fragmentation and Reassembly network links have MTU (max. transfer unit) - largest possible link-level frame. different link types, different MTUs large IP packet divided (“fragmented”) within net one packet becomes several packet “reassembled” only at final destination IP header bits used to identify, order related fragments fragmentation: in: one large packet out: 3 smaller packets reassembly
12
Network Layer 12 IP Fragmentation and Reassembly ID =x offset =0 fragflag =0 length =4000 ID =x offset =0 fragflag =1 length =1500 ID =x offset =1500 fragflag =1 length =1500 ID =x offset =3000 fragflag =0 length =1000 One large packet becomes several smaller packets
13
Network Layer 13 Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), RFC792 The purpose of ICMP messages is to provide feedback about problems in the IP network environment Delivered in IP packets ICMP message format 4 bytes of ICMP header and optional message ICMP: Internet Control Message Protocol
14
Network Layer 14 ICMP Functions To announce network errors If a network, host, port is unreachable, ICMP Destination Unreachable Message is sent to the source host To announce network congestion When a router runs out of buffer queue space, ICMP Source Quench Message is sent to the source host To assist troubleshooting ICMP Echo Message is sent to a host to test if it is alive - used by ping To announce timeouts If a packet’s TTL field drops to zero, ICMP Time Exceeded Message is sent to the source host - used by traceroute
15
Network Layer 15 ICMP Problems ICMP has also received bad press from denial of service (DoS) attacks and because of the number of sites generating monitoring traffic ICMP messages may be blocked (i.e., dropped) by firewall or processed at low priority by router As a consequence some ISPs disable ICMP even though this potentially causes poor performance and does not comply with RFC1009 (Internet Gateway Requirements) In spite of these limitations, ICMP is still most widely used in active network measurements
16
Network Layer 16 ICMP Messages Type Code description 0 0 echo reply (ping) 3 0 dest. network unreachable 3 1 dest host unreachable 3 2 dest protocol unreachable 3 3 dest port unreachable 3 6 dest network unknown 3 7 dest host unknown 4 0 source quench (congestion control - not used) 8 0 echo request (ping) 9 0 route advertisement 10 0 router discovery 11 0 TTL expired 12 0 bad IP header
17
Network Layer 17 Routing in the Internet The Global Internet: A hierarchy of Autonomous Systems (ASs) (enterprise ASs interconnected through ISP’s ASs) Two level routing: Intra-AS: each enterprise is responsible for its intranet routing policy Inter-AS: uses the standard routing protocol (e.g., BGP)
18
Network Layer 18 Intra-AS Routing Also known as Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) Most common IGPs: RIP: Routing Information Protocol (IETF) OSPF: Open Shortest Path First (IETF) IGRP: Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (Cisco)
19
Network Layer 19 RIP (Routing Information Protocol) Distance vector type scheme Included in BSD-UNIX Distribution in 1982 Distance metric: # of hops (maximum 15 hops) Distance vector: exchanged every 30 sec via a Response Message (also called Advertisement) Each Advertisement contains up to 25 destination nets IETF RFC 1058 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1058.txt
20
Network Layer 20 RIP Example Dest. Net. next router Nhops 1 A 2 20 B 2 30 B 7 10 -- 1......... D’s Table before A’s Advertisement Dest. Net. next router Nhops 30 C 4 1 -- 1 10 -- 1......... A’s Advertisement Dest. Net. next router Nhops 1 A 2 20 B 2 30 A 5......... D’s table after A’s advertisement Routers labeled A, B, C, D, … Networks labeled 1, 10, 20, 30,...
21
Network Layer 21 RIP: Link Failure and Recovery If no advertisement heard after 180 sec, neighbor/link is assumed to be dead Routes via the neighbor are invalidated; new advertisements sent to neighbors Neighbors in turn send out new advertisements if their tables changed Link failure info quickly propagates to the entire net
22
Network Layer 22 RIP Table processing RIP routing tables managed by an application process called routed (daemon) advertisements encapsulated in UDP packets (reliability not required; advertisements are periodically repeated)
23
Network Layer 23 RIP Table example Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface --------------- ----------------- ----- ---- ------- --------- 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 26492 lo0 192.168.2. 192.168.2.5 U 2 13 fa0 193.55.114. 193.55.114.6 U 3 58503 le0 192.168.3. 192.168.3.5 U 2 25 qaa0 224.0.0.0 193.55.114.6 U 3 0 le0 default 193.55.114.129 UG 0 143454 To get routing table on Unix/Win, type netstat -rn e.g., a Router RIP table: 3 attached class C networks (LANs) via fa0, le0 and qaa0 m Router only knows routes to attached LANs default is the default gateway “to go up” m Route multicast address: 224.0.0.0 m 1st entry: Loopback interface (for debugging) Learn to use Netstat by examples: http://www.cs.unh.edu/cnrg/lin/linuxProject/resource/netstatCookbook.htm
24
Network Layer 24 OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) “open”: publicly available protocol (IETF) uses the Link State (LS) algorithm, i.e., LS packet dissemination; topology map at each node; route computation using the Dijkstra’s algorithm OSPF advertisement carries one entry per neighbor router (gives link state) Advertisements disseminated to the ENTIRE AS (via flooding)
25
Network Layer 25 OSPF “advanced” features (not in RIP) Security. All OSPF messages are authenticated (to prevent malicious intrusion); TCP connections used Multiple same-cost paths allowed (only one path must be chosen to carry all traffic in RIP) Multiple cost metrics for different TOS for each link (e.g., satellite link cost set “low” for best effort; high for real time) Integrated uni- and multicast support. Multicast OSPF (MOSPF) uses the same topology database as OSPF Hierarchical OSPF in single AS (large routing domain)
26
Network Layer 26 Hierarchical OSPF An OSPF AS: Two level hierarchy (local area and backbone) Link state advertisements do not leave respective areas Nodes in each area have detailed area topology; they only know direction (shortest path) to networks in other areas “Internal routers” perform intra- AS routing only “Area Border routers” route packets to other areas “Backbone routers” run an OSPF routing alg. limited to the backbone “Boundary routers” connect to other ASs
27
Network Layer 27 IGRP (Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) CISCO proprietary; successor of RIP (mid 80’s) Distance Vector, like RIP Several cost metrics (delay, bandwidth, reliability, load, etc.) Uses TCP to exchange routing updates Routing tables exchanged only when costs change Loop free routing achieved by using a Distributed Updating ALgorithm (DUAL) In DUAL, after a distance increase, the routing table is frozen until all affected nodes have learned of the change http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/technologies_white_p aper09186a00800c8ae1.shtml
28
Network Layer 28 BGP (Border Gateway Protocol): the de facto standard Each Border Gateway broadcasts to neighbors (peers) the entire path (i.e., sequence of AS’s) to destination For example, gateway X may store the following path to destination Z: Path (X,Z) = X,Y1,Y2,Y3,…,Z Inter-AS Routing
29
Network Layer 29 Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Now, suppose Gwy X sends its path (X,Y1,Y2,Y3,…,Z) to peer Gwy W Gwy W may or may not select the path offered by Gwy X, because of cost, policy or loop prevention reasons If Gwy W selects the path advertised by Gwy X, then: Path (W,Z) = W, Path (X,Z) Note: path selection based not so much on cost (e.g.,# of AS hops), but mostly on administrative and policy issues (e.g., do not route packets through competitor’s AS)
30
Network Layer 30 Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Peers exchange BGP messages using TCP BGP defines 4 types of messages: OPEN: opens a TCP connection to peer and authenticates sender UPDATE: advertises new path (or withdraws old) KEEPALIVE: keeps connection alive in absence of UPDATES; also serves as ACK to an OPEN request NOTIFICATION: reports errors in previous msg; also used to close a connection IETF RFC 1771 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1771.txt
31
Network Layer 31 Why Intra- and Inter-AS routing different? (1/2) Policy: Inter: concerned with policies (eg, which provider to select/avoid) Intra: under same administrative control, so, policy- based routing is less important Scaleability Inter: ability of routing alg. and table to scale for routing among large numbers of networks Intra: scalability is less of a concern within an AS. A large AS can be divided into two ASs, e.g., “areas” in OSPF
32
Network Layer 32 Why Intra- and Inter-AS routing different? (2/2) Performance: Inter: routing is policy-oriented; quality of routes is secondary. Also, it is difficult to propagate performance metrics efficiently (latency, privacy, etc.). Intra: focused on performance metrics; needs to keep costs low. We need BOTH!
33
Network Layer 33 Multicast Routing Multicast: delivery of a packet to a group of receivers Multicasting is becoming increasingly popular in the Internet (e.g., video on demand, IPTV, multi-player online games) Multiple unicast vs. multicast
34
Network Layer 34 Multicast Group Address M-cast group address “delivered” to all receivers in the group Internet uses Class D (240.0.0.0 to 247.255.255.255) for m-cast M-cast address distribution, etc. managed by IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)
35
Network Layer 35 IGMP Protocol (RFC 2236) IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) operates between router and local hosts, typically on a LAN Router queries the local hosts for m-cast group membership info Router “connects” active hosts to m-cast tree via m- cast protocol Hosts respond with membership reports: actually, the first host which responds (at random) speaks for all Host issues “leave-group” msg to leave; this is optional since router periodically polls anyway
36
Network Layer 36 IGMP message types IGMP Message type Sent by Purpose membership query: general router query for current active multicast groups membership query: specific router query for specific m-cast group membership report hosthost wants to join group leave group hosthost leaves the group
37
Network Layer 37 Summary You now hopefully have: a good understanding of the Internet network protocols and issues IP addressing, format & issues Intra-AS routing protocols RIP OSPF IGRP Inter-AS routing BGP Multicast routing IGMP
