Identify sender or source Identify receiver or destination Identify channel or media Common

5 Rules of Communication Rules or protocols govern all methods of communication Protocols are necessary for effective communication All communication methods have elements in common: Identify sender or source Identify receiver or destination Identify channel or media Common language and grammar Speed and timing of delivery Confirmation or acknowledgment requirements CCENT v6 15

Rules of Communication Protocols used in network communications also define: Message Encoding process of converting information into another acceptable form Message Formatting and Encapsulation used

6 Rules of Communication Protocols used in network communications also define: Message Encoding process of converting information into another acceptable form Message Formatting and Encapsulation used to place one message inside another message for transfer from the source to the destination Message Size process of breaking up a long message into individual pieces Message Timing process of knowing when a message begins, how must can be received at a time, and how to respond back Message Delivery Options who will receive the message and how will it be received CCENT v6 16

Message Encoding Encoding between hosts must be in appropriate format for the medium Messages are first converted into bits by the sending host Each bit is encoded into a

7 Message Encoding Encoding between hosts must be in appropriate format for the medium Messages are first converted into bits by the sending host Each bit is encoded into a pattern of sounds, light waves, or electrical impulses depending on the network media The destination host receives and decodes the signals in order to interpret the message CCENT v6 17

encapsulation Each computer message is encapsulated in a specific format, called a frame, before it

8 Message Formatting and Encapsulation There is an agreed format for letters and addressing letters which is required for proper delivery Putting the letter into the addressed envelope is called encapsulation Each computer message is encapsulated in a specific format, called a frame, before it is sent over the network A frame acts like an envelope providing destination address and source address CCENT v6 18

Message Size Humans break long messages into smaller parts or sentences The size restrictions of frames require the source host to break a long message into individual pieces that meet both the

9 Message Size Humans break long messages into smaller parts or sentences The size restrictions of frames require the source host to break a long message into individual pieces that meet both the minimum and maximum size requirements Long messages must also be broken into smaller pieces to travel across a network A receiving host will reconstruct multiple frames Each segment is encapsulated in a separate frame with the address information, and is sent over the network At the receiving host, the messages are de-encapsulated and put back together into the original message to be processed and interpreted CCENT v6 19

Message Timing Access Method Hosts on a network need to know when to begin sending messages and how to respond when collisions occur Flow Control Used by source and destination hosts to negotiate

10 Message Timing Access Method Hosts on a network need to know when to begin sending messages and how to respond when collisions occur Flow Control Used by source and destination hosts to negotiate correct timing to avoid overwhelming the destination and ensure that packets are not dropped because too much data is being sent too quickly Response Timeout Hosts on the network have rules that specify how long to wait for responses and what action to take if a response timeout occurs CCENT v6 20

14 Protocol Suites Protocol Suites and Industry Standards Sets of rules that work together to help solve a problem TCP/IP is an open standardi Implemented by hosts and networking devices in software, hardware or both Viewed in terms of layers, with each higher-level service depending on the functionality defined by the protocols shown in the lower levels TCP/IP Protocol Suites The TCP/IP protocol suite is an open standard, the protocols are freely available, and any vendor is able to implement these protocols on their hardware or in their software Can you name some of the protocols from the TCP/IP protocol suite? Know the protocols and the layer they operate in CCENT v6 24

15 Development of TCP/IP Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) was the predecessor to today s Internet ARPANET was funded by the U.S. Department of Defense for use by universities and research laboratories CCENT v6 25

16 Interaction of TCP/IP Model Protocols Communication between a web server and web client is an example of an interaction between several protocols: Application Layer Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Defines the content and formatting of the requests and responses that are exchanged between the client and server. Presentation Layer Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) Defines the syntax both sides of the communication must understand in order to communicate. Transport Layer Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is responsible for controlling the size and rate of the HTTP messages exchanged between server and client. It segments the messages and manages the segments in the individual conversation between the host and destination. Internet Layer Internet Protocol (IP) or logical address is a unique host address for data communications at the internet layer Network Access Layer Describes two primary functions: 1) communication over a data link and 2) the physical transmission of data on the network media: - Data-link management protocols take the packets from IP and format them to be transmitted over the media. - Physical media standards and protocols govern how the signals are sent and how they are interpreted by the receiving clients CCENT v6 26

TCP/IP Communication Process From the user perspective, what is the correct order of the protocol stack that is used to prepare a web request for transmission?

17 TCP/IP Communication Process From the user perspective, what is the correct order of the protocol stack that is used to prepare a web request for transmission? HTTP (7) Identifies the type of page that will be rendered HTML (6) Prepares the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) page TCP (4) Breaks the data into segments and identifies each IP (3) The IP source and destination addresses are added, creating an IP Packet Ethernet (2) The Ethernet information is added creating the Ethernet Frame - This frame is delivered to the nearest router along the path towards the web client - Each router adds new data link information before forwarding the packet CCENT v6 27

18 TCP/IP Communication Process (Cont.) When receiving the data link frames from the web server, the client processes and removes each protocol header in the opposite order it was added: First the Ethernet header is removed Then the IP header Then the Transport layer header Finally the HTTP information is processed and sent to the client s web browser CCENT v6 28

33 De-encapsulation De-encapsulation is the process used by a receiving device to remove one or more of the protocol headers The de-encapsulation process works from bottom to top: Bits are turned into digital information and passed to the Data Link layer Frame information is read and striped off before sending to the Network layer Packet information is read and striped off before send to the Transport layer Segment is read, sequencing is applied, and the data is reorder CCENT v6 43

Data Transfer in the Network Network Addresses (Logical Address) Source IP address The IP address of the sending device, the original source of the packet Destination IP address The IP address of the

34 Data Transfer in the Network Network Addresses (Logical Address) Source IP address The IP address of the sending device, the original source of the packet Destination IP address The IP address of the receiving device, the final destination of the packet Deliver the IP packet from the original source to the final destination, either on the same network or to a remote network. Data Link Addresses (Physical Address) Source MAC address Destination MAC address As the IP packet travels from source to destination it is encapsulated in a new data link frame when it is forwarded by each router What will happen if the default gateway address is incorrectly configured on a host? The host cannot communicate with hosts in other networks CCENT v6 44

35 Communicating with Device / Same Network The network layer addresses, or IP addresses, indicate the original source and final destination. Network portion The left-most part of the address indicates which network the IP address is a member of. Host portion The remaining part of the address identifies a specific device on the network. The data link frame which uses MAC addressing, is sent directly to the receiving device. Source MAC address - address of sending device. Destination MAC address address of receiving device. What address does a NIC use when deciding whether to accept a frame?
