William Stallings Data and Computer Communications Chapter 1 Introduction
2
A Communications Model zSource ygenerates data to be transmitted zTransmitter yConverts data into transmittable signals zTransmission System yCarries data zReceiver yConverts received signal into data zDestination yTakes incoming data
3
Simplified Communications Model - Diagram
4
Key Communications Tasks zTransmission System Utilization zInterfacing zSignal Generation zSynchronization zExchange Management zError detection and correction zAddressing and routing zRecovery zMessage formatting zSecurity zNetwork Management
5
Simplified Data Communications Model
6
Networking zPoint to point communication not usually practical yDevices are too far apart yLarge set of devices would need impractical number of connections zSolution is a communications network
7
Simplified Network Model
8
Wide Area Networks zLarge geographical area zCrossing public rights of way zRely in part on common carrier circuits zAlternative technologies yCircuit switching yPacket switching yFrame relay yAsynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
9
Circuit Switching zDedicated communications path established for the duration of the conversation ze.g. telephone network zDWDM
10
Packet Switching zData sent out of sequence zSmall chunks (packets) of data at a time zPackets passed from node to node between source and destination zUsed for terminal to computer and computer to computer communications
11
Frame Relay zPacket switching systems have large overheads to compensate for errors zModern systems are more reliable zErrors can be caught in end system zMost overhead for error control is stripped out
12
Asynchronous Transfer Mode zATM zEvolution of frame relay zLittle overhead for error control zFixed packet (called cell) length zAnything from 10Mbps to Gbps zConstant data rate using packet switching technique
13
Integrated Services Digital Network zISDN zDesigned to replace public telecom system zWide variety of services zEntirely digital domain
14
Local Area Networks zSmaller scope yBuilding or small campus zUsually owned by same organization as attached devices zData rates much higher zUsually broadcast systems zNow some switched systems and ATM are being introduced
15
Protocols zUsed for communications between entities in a system zMust speak the same language zEntities yUser applications ye-mail facilities yterminals zSystems yComputer yTerminal yRemote sensor
16
Key Elements of a Protocol zSyntax yData formats ySignal levels zSemantics yControl information yError handling zTiming ySpeed matching ySequencing
17
Protocol Architecture zTask of communication broken up into modules zFor example file transfer could use three modules yFile transfer application yCommunication service module yNetwork access module
18
Simplified File Transfer Architecture
19
A Three Layer Model zNetwork Access Layer zTransport Layer zApplication Layer
20
Network Access Layer zExchange of data between the computer and the network zSending computer provides address of destination zMay invoke levels of service zDependent on type of network used (LAN, packet switched etc.)
21
Transport Layer zReliable data exchange zIndependent of network being used zIndependent of application
22
Application Layer zSupport for different user applications ze.g. e-mail, file transfer
23
Addressing Requirements zTwo levels of addressing required zEach computer needs unique network address zEach application on a (multi-tasking) computer needs a unique address within the computer yThe service access point or SAP
24
Protocol Architectures and Networks
25
Protocols in Simplified Architecture
26
Protocol Data Units (PDU) zAt each layer, protocols are used to communicate zControl information is added to user data at each layer zTransport layer may fragment user data zEach fragment has a transport header added yDestination SAP ySequence number yError detection code zThis gives a transport protocol data unit
27
Network PDU zAdds network header ynetwork address for destination computer yFacilities requests
28
Operation of a Protocol Architecture
29
TCP/IP Protocol Architecture zDeveloped by the US Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) for its packet switched network (ARPANET) zUsed by the global Internet zNo official model but a working one. yApplication layer yHost to host or transport layer yInternet layer yNetwork access layer yPhysical layer
30
Physical Layer zPhysical interface between data transmission device (e.g. computer) and transmission medium or network zCharacteristics of transmission medium zSignal levels zData rates zetc.
31
Network Access Layer zExchange of data between end system and network zDestination address provision zInvoking services like priority
32
Internet Layer (IP) zSystems may be attached to different networks zRouting functions across multiple networks zImplemented in end systems and routers
33
Transport Layer (TCP) zReliable delivery of data zOrdering of delivery
34
Application Layer zSupport for user applications ze.g. http, SMPT
35
TCP/IP Protocol Architecture Model
36
OSI Model zOpen Systems Interconnection zDeveloped by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) zSeven layers zA theoretical system delivered too late! zTCP/IP is the de facto standard
37
OSI Layers zApplication zPresentation zSession zTransport zNetwork zData Link zPhysical
38
OSI v TCP/IP
39
Standards zRequired to allow for interoperability between equipment zAdvantages yEnsures a large market for equipment and software yAllows products from different vendors to communicate zDisadvantages yFreeze technology yMay be multiple standards for the same thing
40
Standards Organizations zInternet Society zISO zITU-T (formally CCITT) zIEEE zATM forum
41
Further Reading zStallings, W. Data and Computer Communications (6th edition), Prentice Hall 1999 chapter 1 zWeb site for Stallings book ywww.shore.net/~ws/DCC6e.html zWeb sites for IETF, IEEE, ITU-T, ISO zInternet Requests for Comment (RFCs)
