1 1 Basic Networking Concepts1. Introduction2. Protocols3. Protocol Layers4. Network Interconnection/Internet21. Introduction-A network can be defined as a group of computers and other devicesconnected in some ways so as to be able to exchange of the devices on the network can be thought of as a node; eachnode has a unique are numeric quantities that are easy for computers to workwith, but not for humans to : networks also provide names that humans can more easily remember than : , corresponding to the above addressConsists of 4 bytes separated by R first bytes (R= 1,2,3) correspond to the network address.

2 -The remaining H bytes (H = 3,2,1) are used for the host Register: organization in charge of the allocation of theaddress ranges corresponding to considered: Geographical area (country) Organization, enterprise Department HostDomain Name System (DNS)-Mnemonic textual addresses are provided to facilitate the manipulationof internet addresses. -DNS servers are responsible for translating mnemonic textual Internetaddresses into hard numeric internet IP address identifies a host machine on the IP port will identify a specific application running on an internet hostmachine.

3 -A port is identified by a number, the port number. -The number of ports is not functionally limited, in contrast to serialcommunications where only 4 ports are are some port numbers which are dedicated for specific (e-mail)25 SMTP (e-mail)70 Gopher20 and 21 FTP80 HTTPPort numbersApplications5 data Transmission-In modern networks, data are transferred using packet are broken into units called packets, and sent from onecomputer to the other. -At the destination, data are extracted from one or more packets andused to reconstruct the original packet has a maximum size, and consists of a header and a dataarea.

4 -The header contains the addresses of the source and destination computers and sequencing information necessary to reassemblethe message at the data6 Types of NetworksThere are two principle kinds of networks: Wide Area Networks (WANs) and Local Area Networks (LANs).WANs-Cover cities, countries, and on packet switchingtechnology-Examples of WAN technology: Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM),Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)LANs-Cover buildings or a set of closely related buildings. -Examples of LAN technology: Ethernet, Token Ring, and FibberDistributed data Interconnect (FDDI).

6 -LANs and WANs can be interconnected via T1 or T3 digital leasedlines-According to the protocols involved, networks interconnection isachieved using one or several of the following devices : Bridge: a computer or device that links two similar LANs based on the same protocol. Router:a communication computer that connects different types ofnetworks using different protocols. B-router or Bridge/Router:a single device that combines both thefunctions of bridge and router. Gateway:a network device that connects two different systems, usingdirect and systematic translation between branchEthernet LANR outerVancouver branchToken Ring LANG atewayFrame Relay ATMT1 lineNY headquatersBridge/RouteToken Ring LANR outerBridgeBridge/RouterEthernet11 Network Topology DiagramThe specification of the network topology diagram requires the definition of the characteristics and entities underlying the network.

7 -Geographical locations of the different components or subnetsinvolved in the of the LAN topology-Description of the WAN topology-Description of the network connectors such as routers, bridges,repeaters, and Protocols-Define the rules that govern the communications between twocomputers connected to the network. -Roles: addressing and routing of messages, error detection andrecovery, sequence and flow controls etc. -A protocol specification consists of the syntax, which defines the kindsand formats of the messages exchanged, and the semantic, whichspecifies the action taken by each entity when specific events :HTTP protocol for communication between web browsersand : MAIL FROM: 250 OKS: RCPT TO: 250 OKS: DATAR: 354 Beginning of mail; ending by <CRLF>.

Therefore a layer n PDU may become a layer Protocol LayersThe OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) data model -ISO standard for computer networks design and functioning.

9 -Involves at least 7 layers, each playing a specific role whenapplications are communicating over the net. -During the sending process, each layer (from top to down) will adda specific header to the raw data . -At the reception, headers are eliminated conversely until the dataarrived to the receiving LayersPhysical layer(defines the physical characteristics of the network) data -link layer(provides safe communication of data over the physical network)Network layer(handles connection to the network by the higher layers)Transport layer(provides end-to-end errors detection and correction)Session layer(manages sessions among applications)Presentation layer(provides standard data representations for applications)

10 Application layer(applications connected to the network)17 Physical layer: ensures a safe and efficient travel of data ; consists ofelectronic circuits for data transmission link layer: in charge of data encapsulation under the form ofpackets and their interpretation at the physical layer. Network layer: in charge of packets transmission from a source A to adestination layer: in charge of the delivery of packets from a source Ato a destination B Session layer: in charge of the management of network layer: determines the format of the data transmitted toapplications, data compressing/decompressing, encrypting layer: contains the applications which are used by theend-user, such as Java, Word TCP/IP model -Consists of only 4 layers.
