Objectives
• Explain the function of protocols in a network• Describe common protocol suites
![Page 3: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Protocols
• Strictly speaking, protocols are the rules and procedures for communicating– For two computers to communicate, they must speak
the same language and agree on the rules of communication
![Page 4: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The Function of Protocols
• To avoid chaos in communication• Protocol stack / protocol suite - when a set of
protocols works cooperativelyExample: TCP/IP IPX/SPX (older version of Novell Netware
![Page 5: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Connectionless Versus Connection-Oriented Protocols
• Connectionless: – assumes data delivery will get through– not entirely reliable– fast: little overhead, don’t waste time
establishing/managing/tearing down connections• Connection-oriented
– more reliable – slower
![Page 6: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
For Connection-Oriented
– establish computer connection before data transfer begins
– data is sent in an orderly fashion– Ensures data is received – Ensures data received is accurate – Generates error messages
![Page 7: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Routable Versus Nonroutable Protocols
• Responsibility of Network Layer ProtocolsRoutable: moving data across multiple networks
Routers- responsible for routing processExamples: TCP/IP and IPX/SPX
Nonroutable : contain only a device address and not a network addressExample: NetBIOS protocol
![Page 8: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
NetBIOS
• Network Basic Input/Output System• provides services related to the session layer• allowing applications on separate computers to
communicate over a local area network
![Page 9: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Protocols in a Layered Architecture
![Page 10: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Protocols in a Layered Architecture (continued)
![Page 11: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Network Protocols
• Some popular network protocols include:– Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4 or simply IP)
• Provides addressing and routing information– Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX)
• Novell’s protocol for packet routing and forwarding• Belongs to the IPX/SPX protocol suite• Serves many of the same functions as TCP/IP’s IP
– Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)• A new version of IP that’s being implemented on many
current networking devices and operating systems– Addresses some weaknesses of IPv4
![Page 12: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Transport Protocols
• Transport protocols can be connection-oriented (reliable) or connectionless (best-effort) delivery– Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
• Responsible for reliable data delivery in TCP/IP– Sequential Packet Exchange (SPX)
• Novell’s connection-oriented protocol used to guarantee data delivery
– NetBIOS/NetBEUI• NetBIOS establishes/manages communications
between computers and provides naming services• NetBEUI provides data transport services for these
communications
![Page 13: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Application Protocols
• Application protocols provide services to client applications– Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) in TCP/IP– File Transfer Protocol (FTP) in TCP/IP– Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
• Manages and monitors network devices (TCP/IP)– NetWare Core Protocol (NCP)
• Novell’s client shells and redirectors– AppleTalk File Protocol (AFP)
• Apple’s remote file-management protocol
![Page 14: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Common Protocol Suites
• Because most protocols contain a combination of components, these components are usually bundled as a protocol suite– TCP/IP
• Dominates the networking arena to the point of making most of the other suites nearly obsolete
– IPX/SPX– NetBIOS/NetBEUI– AppleTalk
![Page 15: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
![Page 16: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
TCP/IP Network Layer Protocols
• Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) is a Network layer protocol that provides source and destination addressing and routing for the TCP/IP suite– Connectionless protocol; fast but unreliable
• Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is a Network layer protocol used to send error and control messages between systems or devices– The Ping utility uses ICMP to request a response
from a remote host to verify availability• Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) resolves
logical (IP) addresses to physical (MAC) addresses
![Page 17: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
IP, ICMP, and ARP in Action
![Page 18: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
IP, ICMP, and ARP in Action (continued)
![Page 19: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
TCP/IP Transport Layer Protocols
• Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is the primary Internet transport protocol– Connection oriented using a three-way handshake– Message fragmentation and reassembly– Uses acknowledgements to ensure that all data was
received and to provide flow control• User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is connectionless
– Generally faster, although less reliable, than TCP• Doesn’t segment data or resequence packets• Doesn’t use acknowledgements for reliability• Used by NFS and DNS
![Page 20: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
TCP/IP Application Layer Protocols
• Domain Name System (DNS)– Session layer name-to-address resolution protocol
• Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP)– To transfer Web pages from Web server to browser
• File Transfer Protocol (FTP)– For file transfer and directory and file manipulation
• Telnet– Remote terminal emulation; operates at layers 7-5
• Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP)– Operates at layers 7-5; provides messaging services
![Page 21: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
IP Addressing
• Logical addresses are 32 bits (4 bytes) long– Each byte is represented as an octet (decimal
number from 0 to 255)– Usually represented in dotted decimal notation
• E.g., 172.24.208.192– Address has two parts: network and host ID
• E.g. 172.24.208.192 (172.24.0.0 and 208.192)– Categorized into ranges referred to as classes
• Class system provides basis for determining which part of address is the network and which is the host ID
• The first octet of an address denotes its class
![Page 22: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
IP Addressing (continued)
• Classes– Class A: first octet between 1-126
• 16,777,214 hosts per network address– Class B: first octet between 128-191
• 65,534 hosts per network address– Class C: first octet between 192-223
• 254 hosts per network address– Class D: first octet between 224-239
• Reserved for multicasting– Class E: first octet between 240-255
• Reserved for experimental use
![Page 23: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
IP Addressing (continued)
• 127.0.0.0 network is called the loopback address– localhost always corresponds to address 127.0.0.1
• IETF reserved addresses for private networks– Class A addresses beginning with 10– Class B addresses from 172.16 to 172.31– Class C addresses from 192.168.0 to 192.168.255– These addresses can’t be routed across the Internet– To access the Internet, NAT is needed– IPv6 eliminates need for private addressing;
provides a 128-bit address (vs. IPv4’s 32 bits)
![Page 24: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR)
• Addressing by class has been superseded by a more flexible addressing method– Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR)– The network and host demarcation can be made
with any number of bits from beginning of address– E.g., a Class C address’s network section is 24 bits
• Using CIDR, an address registry can assign an address with a network section of 26 bits
– 192.203.187.0/26– Subnetting divides network address in two or more
subnetwork addresses (with fewer host IDs for each)
![Page 25: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Why Subnet?
• Subnetting– Makes more efficient use of available IP addresses– Enables dividing networks into logical groups– Can make network communication more efficient
• Broadcast frames are sent to all computers on the same IP network– Hubs and switches forward broadcast frames;
routers do not– Broadcast domain: extent to which a broadcast
frame is forwarded without going through a router– Subnetting reduces broadcast traffic
![Page 26: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Subnet Masks
• Subnet mask determines which part of address denotes network portion and which denotes host– 32-bit number – A binary 1 signifies that the corresponding bit in the
IP address belongs to the network portion; a 0 signifies that bit in address belongs to host portion
– Default subnet mask uses a 255 in each octet in address that corresponds to the network portion• Class A: 255.0.0.0• Class B: 255.255.0.0• Class C: 255.255.255.0
![Page 27: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Some Simple Binary Arithmetic
• Four kinds of binary calculations:– Converting between binary and decimal– Converting between decimal and binary– Understanding how setting high-order bits to the
value of 1 in 8-bit binary numbers corresponds to specific decimal numbers
– Recognizing the decimal values for numbers that correspond to low-order bits when set to 1
![Page 28: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Converting Decimal to Binary
• 125 is converted to binary as follows:– 125 divided by 2 equals 62, remainder 1– 62 divided by 2 equals 31, remainder 0– 31 divided by 2 equals 15, remainder 1– 15 divided by 2 equals 7, remainder 1– 7 divided by 2 equals 3, remainder 1– 3 divided by 2 equals 1, remainder 1– 1 divided by 2 equals 0, remainder 1
![Page 29: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Converting Binary to Decimal
• To convert 11010011 to decimal:1. Count the total number of digits in the number (8)
2. Subtract one from the total (8 - 1 = 7)
3. That number (7) is the power of 2 to associate with the highest exponent for two in the number
4. Convert to exponential notation, using all the digits as multipliers
5. 11010011, therefore, converts to:
![Page 30: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
High-Order Bit Patterns
![Page 31: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Low-Order Bit Patterns
![Page 32: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Calculating a Subnet Mask
• To decide how to build a subnet mask:1. Decide how many subnets you need
2. Decide how many bits you need to meet or exceed the number of required subnets• Use the formula 2n, with n representing the number
of bits you must add to the starting subnet mask
3. Borrow bits from the top of the host portion of the address down
4. Ensure that you have enough host bits available to assign to computers on each subnet (2n-2)
![Page 33: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Calculating a Subnet Mask (continued)
![Page 34: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Calculating a Subnet Mask (continued)
![Page 35: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Calculating Supernets
• Supernetting “borrows” bits from network portion of an IP address to “lend” those bits to host portion– Permits consecutive IP network addresses to be
combined and viewed in a single logical network• Combining two or more small networks into one
larger network is only one reason to supernet– Supernetting can combine multiple routing table
entries into a single entry, which can drastically decrease the table’s size on Internet routers
– This reduction in routing table size increases the speed and efficiency of Internet routers
![Page 36: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Network Address Translation (NAT)
![Page 37: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
• Detailed configuration of devices, keeping track of assigned addresses and to which machine they were assigned, etc., is difficult in large networks– DHCP was developed to make this process easier– DHCP server must be configured with a block of
available IP addresses and their subnet masks– Clients must be configured to use DHCP
• Broadcast request message is sent on boot– Client leases the address the server assigns to it– If no answer is received, in an APIPA-enabled OS, the
computer assigns itself an address (169.254.x.x)
![Page 38: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)
• IPv6 solves several IPv4 problems– Limiting 32-bit address space
• An IPv6 address is 128 bits long– Lack of built-in security
• IPSec provides authentication and encryption– A sometimes complicated setup
• IPv6 is autoconfiguring (stateless or stateful)– Lack of built-in QoS
• QoS headers in IPv6 packets can identify packets that require special or priority handling, making applications such as streaming audio and video much easier to implement
![Page 39: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
IPv6 Addresses
• IPv6 addresses are specified in hexadecimal format in 16-bit sections separated by a colon– Longhand notation: 2001:260:0:0:0:2ed3:340:ab– Shorthand notation: 2001:260::2ed3:340:ab
• If one of the 16-bit numbers doesn’t require four hexadecimal digits, the leading 0s are omitted
– Addresses have a three-part addressing hierarchy• A public topology (first three 16-bit sections)• A site topology (next 16 bits)• An interface identifier (last 64 bits)
– Derived from the MAC address on the host’s NIC
![Page 40: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Other Protocol Suites
• Other protocol suites are sometimes used on older networks, where the need to change to TCP/IP is not warranted, or in environments suited to the suite’s features– NetBIOS/NetBEUI
• Used primarily on older Windows networks– IPX/SPX
• Designed for use on NetWare networks– AppleTalk
• Used almost exclusively on Macintosh networks
![Page 41: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
NetBIOS and NetBEUI
![Page 42: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
IPX/SPX
![Page 43: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
AppleTalk
• Although the AppleTalk standard defines physical transport in Apple Macintosh networks, it also establishes a suite of protocols those computers use to communicate
• Apple created AppleTalk Phase II to allow connectivity outside the Macintosh world
• AppleTalk divides computers into zones– Allow a network administrator to logically group
computers and other resources that have frequent communication, in a manner similar to subnetting
![Page 44: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Implementing and Removing Protocols
![Page 45: Chapter 6 - Networking](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5558961cd8b42aa6708b481a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Summary
• Many protocols are available for network communications, each with its strengths/weaknesses
• The TCP/IP protocol suite dominates network communication in part due to its use on the Internet
• IP addressing involves several concepts, including address classes, subnetting, and supernetting
• IPv6 will eventually replace IPv4 because it offers several advantages: 128-bit address space, autoconfiguration, built-in security, and QoS
