Q

give an example of a server hosting web and file sharing services and how it distinguishes between these

A

if a server is offering web services and file sharing services then it needs to know which service a host requires if an incoming message is destined for port 80 then the server knows that this message is bound for a web server application and is placed in the appropriate cue to be processed

Q

describe

User Datagram Protocol (UDP)

A

this is known as a ‘best effort protocol’ and resides on the layer 4 (transport layer). this protocol is in contrast to TCP in that it does not ensure all messages are delivered by using acknowledgments.

instead a message is broken up and sent without care of if they are received or not

Q

describe in six steps the process of sending a message with

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)

A
  1. it receives a message from the application layer and breaks it up into what are called segments
  2. each segment is then given a sequence number
  3. a given number of segments are then sent to the lower layers to be delivered
  4. the sender then waits for an acknowledgment that all segments sent were recieved
  5. if an acknowledgment is received then the next block of segments are sent
  6. if an acknowledgment is not received after a given time then the sender assumes the segments were lost and resends them

what are the port(s) and transport protocol(s) of ## Footnote **Telnet**
this uses: * port 23 TCP
26
the process is: 1. the network layer knows the source port and destination port from the information given by the application layer 2. each segment is then given a header which includes the source and destination port 3. each segment is then encapsulated in an IP packet
describe in 3 steps how ## Footnote **segments are encapsulated into IP packets**
27
describe **registered ports** and their range
these can be either source or destination ports and can be used by organisations to register an application such as IM or gaming the range is from 1024 through 49151
28
what do **application layer services** such as HTTP, DNS, FTP, DHCP. decide
these will decide: 1. how client and server will communicate 2. what information client and server will communicate 3. the transport layer protocol that will be used
29
describe in 3 steps how ## Footnote **segments are encapsulated into IP packets**
