Lecture-5

The TCP/IP Protocol Suite is a set of communication protocols used for the Internet, developed by the Department of Defense in 1969. It consists of four layers: Host-to-network, Internet, Transport, and Application, each serving specific functions in data communication. Key protocols within this suite include TCP, IP, and various application protocols like HTTP and FTP.

TCP/IP Model
The TCP/IP reference model was
developed prior to OSI model. The major

Protocol and Its
Elements
 It is a set of rules that govern data communication.
 Define What, How and When in terms of data communication

Structure or format of the data


Syntax Indicates how to read the bits - field delineation

Interprets the meaning of the bits


Semantics Knows which fields define what action

When data should be sent


Timing Speed at which data should be sent or speed at which it is
being received.
TCP/IP Protocol Suite
• The Internet Protocol Suite (commonly known as TCP/IP) is the set of communications protocols used for
the Internet and other similar networks.

• Named from two of the most important protocols


• Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and
• Internet Protocol (IP)

• TCP/IP originated out of the investigative research into networking protocols that the Department of Defense
(DoD) initiated in 1969.
• In 1968, the DoD Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) began researching the network technology that is
now called packet switching.

• The network that was initially constructed as a result of this research, then called ARPANET, gradually became
known as the Internet.
TCP/IP PROTOCOL
SUITE

• The layers in the TCP/IP protocol suite


do not exactly match those in the OSI
model.
• The original TCP/IP protocol suite was
defined as having four layers:
• Host-to-network/Network access
• Internet
• Transport
• Application.
TCP/IP vs
OSI
Physical + Data Link Layer

 The design of TCP/IP hides the function of this layer from


users--it is concerned with getting data across a specific type
of physical network (i.e., Ethernet, Token Ring, etc.).
 The functions are

 Encapsulating the IP datagrams into frames

 Maps the IP addresses to the physical addresses.


Network Layer
• Responsible for routing messages through internetworks.

• Two types of devices; gateway and router, are responsible for routing
messages between networks.
• The internetwork layer protocols provide a datagram network service.
Datagrams comprise of a header, data, and a trailer.

• Network layer protocols package the message in a datagram and send


it off.
• A datagram service does not support session or connection. Once a
message is sent or received, the service retains no memory of the
entity with which it was communicating.
Transport/
Host-to-Host Layer
 It is responsible for providing end-to-end data integrity and
provides a highly reliable communication service for entities that
want to carry out an extended two-way conversation.
 It uses open and close commands to initiate and terminate the
connection.
 This layer accepts information to be transmitted as a stream of
characters, and it returns information to the recipient as a stream.
 The service employs the concept of a connection (or virtual circuit).
Application Layer
 This layer provides functions for users or their programs, and it is highly specific to
the application being performed.
 This layer includes all applications protocols that use the host-to-host transport
protocols to deliver data.
 Other functions that process user data, such as data encryption and decryption and
compression and decompression, can also reside at the application layer.
 The application layer also manages the sessions (connections) between cooperating
applications.
 Instead of using the term "session," TCP/IP uses the terms "socket" and "port" to
describe the path (or virtual circuit) over which cooperating applications
communicate.
