Tutorial 1

This document provides an overview of networking concepts including the OSI model, TCP/IP protocol suite, data encapsulation, and communication at each layer. It describes the seven layers of the OSI model and their functions. It also maps the OSI layers to the four layers of the TCP/IP protocol suite. The document explains how data is encapsulated as it travels down the stack with headers added at each layer and then decapsulated as it travels up the stack. It illustrates communication at each layer and the data units used, such as segments, packets, and frames. Finally, it introduces the network protocol analyzer Wireshark which can be used to analyze network traffic and understand how layers work.

a) Header and trailer attached at each layer aim to perform certain functions at each layer.
b) Headers are added while a packet is going down the stack at each layer.
c) Each protocol on the different layer has its own format

TCP/IP Protocol Suite

The application layer in TCP/IP is equivalent to the combined session,


session
presentation, and application layers in the OSI model.

TCP/IP Protocol Suite


Application layer : responsible for providing services to the user.
e.g.,
g , FTP,, SMTP,, Http,
p, etc
Transport layer : responsible for the delivery of application data from
source to destination. e.g., TCP(reliable delivery), UDP.

the source host to the destination host. Main functions:
forwarding and routing. e.g., IP, etc
Data link layer: responsible for hop-to-hop (node-to-node) delivery
Major duties: framing, flow control, error control,
access control . e.g., Ethernet, 802.11(Wireless lan), etc
Physical layer : responsible for movements of individual bits from one hop
(node) to the next over a physical medium
medium.
It maps incoming bits from the data link layer into signals
appropriate to the channel.
