Network service model
Q: What service model for “channel” transporting
datagrams from sender to receiver?
Example services for
individual datagrams:
 guaranteed delivery
 guaranteed delivery
with less than 40 msec
delay
 “best effort” (e.g., IP)
Example services for a
flow of datagrams:
 in-order datagram

each passing connection
 link, router resources (bandwidth, buffers) may be
allocated to VC (dedicated resources = predictable service)

3.
path from source to destination
VC numbers, number may differ for each link
along path
entries in forwarding tables in routers along

Router Architecture Overview
Two key router functions:
 run routing algorithms/protocol (RIP, OSPF, BGP)
 forwarding datagrams from incoming to outgoing link
Network Layer 4-19
Input Port Functions
Physical layer:
bit-level reception
Data link layer:
e.g., Ethernet
see chapter 5
Decentralized switching:
 given datagram dest., lookup output port
using forwarding table in input port
memory
 goal: complete input port processing at
‘line speed’
 queuing: if datagrams arrive faster than
forwarding rate into switch fabric
Network Layer 4-20
Three types of switching fabrics
Network Layer 4-21
Switching Via Memory
First generation routers:
 traditional computers with switching under direct
control of CPU
packet copied to system’s memory
 speed limited by memory bandwidth (2 bus
crossings per datagram)
Input
Port
Memory
Output
Port
System Bus
Network Layer 4-22
Switching Via a Bus
 datagram from input port memory
to output port memory via a shared
bus
 bus contention: switching speed
limited by bus bandwidth
 1 Gbps bus, Cisco 1900: sufficient
speed for access and enterprise
routers (not regional or backbone)
Network Layer 4-23
Switching Via An Interconnection
Network
 overcome bus bandwidth limitations
 Banyan networks, other interconnection nets
initially developed to connect processors in
multiprocessor
 Advanced design: fragmenting datagram into fixed
length cells, switch cells through the fabric.
 Cisco 12000: switches Gbps through the
interconnection network
Network Layer 4-24
Output Ports
 Buffering required when datagrams arrive from
fabric faster than the transmission rate
 Scheduling discipline chooses among queued
datagrams for transmission
Network Layer 4-25
Output port queueing
 buffering when arrival rate via switch exceeds
output line speed
 queueing (delay) and loss due to output port
buffer overflow!
Network Layer 4-26
Input Port Queuing
 Fabric slower than input ports combined -> queueing
may occur at input queues
 Head-of-the-Line (HOL) blocking: queued datagram
at front of queue prevents others in queue from
moving forward
 queueing delay and loss due to input buffer overflow!

IP Fragmentation and Reassembly
Example
 4000 byte
datagram
 MTU = 1500 bytes
1480 bytes in
data field
offset =
1480/8
length
=4000
ID
=x

=0
offset
=0
One large datagram becomes
several smaller datagrams
length
=1500
ID

fragflag
=1
offset

length
=1500
ID
=x
fragflag
=1
offset
=185
length
=1040
ID
=x
fragflag
=0
offset
=370
Steps:
1. Subtract 20 from original length: 4000 -20 = 3980 (bytes of "IP data")
2. Subtract 20 from new MTU:
1500- 20 = 1480 (max. bytes of data in each fragment)
3. Divide "maximum data bytes" by 8: 1480/8 = 185 to get offset increment
4. Offset of each fragment "n" (n = 0, 1, 2, ...) = n x "offset increment": 0, 185, 370. ...
5. Length of each fragment (except last) = 20 + "max. data bytes" = 20 +1480 = 1500
Length of last fragment = 20 + remaining data bytes = 20 + 3980 - 2 x 1480 = 1040
Network Layer 4-32
IP Fragmentation & Reassembly
 network links have MTU
(max.transfer size) - largest
possible link-level frame.
 different link types,
different MTUs
 large IP datagram divided
(“fragmented”) within net
 one datagram becomes
several datagrams
 “reassembled” only at
final destination
 IP header bits used to
identify, order related
fragments
fragmentation:
in: one large datagram
out: 3 smaller datagrams
Blue: IP Header
reassembly
Another fragment flag, DNF (do not fragment) causes a ICMP response
(and dropped datagram) instead of fragmentation. The sender then
resends future datagrams with smaller size (may fragment itself or

Textbook refers to /20 in the network designator
200.23.16.0/20 as the “subnet mask”.
/20 represents a 32-bit binary number that has
20 “1” bits at left and 12 “0”s at the right:
11111111 11111111 11110000 00000000
This number in dotted decimal format is:
255.255.240.0
A network designator is incomplete without the
network mask (either the above form or
“/20”).
Network Layer 4-44
The (sub)network mask can change:
• an IP address into the corresponding
network address (for comparison in a
router forwarding table).
Match[i] = {(IP & mask[i] == Network_addr[i]}
“==“ means “TRUE if equals”
•
• an IP address (or network address) into
the network Broadcast Address:
Broadcast_addr = IP | ~mask
“&” bitwise AND
“|” bitwise OR
“~” bitwise inversion (0->1, 1->0)

IP addressing: the last word...
Q: How does an ISP (or organization) get a
block of addresses?
A: ICANN: Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers (www.icann.org)
 allocates addresses (no, IANA* does this)
 manages DNS (domain names can be registered
through several dozen registries (e.g., verisign.com)

assigns domain names, resolves disputes

source, destination (as usual)
Network Layer 4-53
NAT: Network Address Translation
 Motivation: local network uses just one IP address as
far as outside world is concerned:
 range of addresses not needed from ISP: just one IP
address for all devices
 can change addresses of devices in local network
without notifying outside world
 can change ISP without changing addresses of
devices in local network
 devices inside local net not explicitly addressable,
visible by outside world (a security plus).


outgoing datagrams: replace (source IP address, port
#) of every outgoing datagram to (NAT IP address,

IP address, new port #) as destination addr.
remember (in NAT translation table) every (source
IP address, port #) to (NAT IP address, new port #)

NAT: Network Address Translation
 16-bit port-number field:
 60,000 simultaneous connections with a single LAN-side
address! [Actually more if the translation table has
outside IP,port as a factor. Many such implementations
do not change the client port number, since duplication is
not likely].
 NAT is controversial [?]:
 routers should only process up to layer 3
 violates end-to-end argument
• NAT possibility must be taken into account by app
designers, eg, P2P applications

address shortage should instead be solved by IPv6
Network Layer 4-57

IPv6
 Initial motivation: 32-bit address space now
(2012)completely allocated (NAT and CIDR* fixed
the problem for for a dozen years). IPv6 has 128
bits.
 Additional motivation:
header format helps speed processing/forwarding
 header changes to facilitate QoS
IPv6 datagram format:
 fixed-length 40 byte header (versus 20 for IPv4)
 no fragmentation allowed (6 bytes removed)
*Before CIDR (Classless Internet Domain Routing), there were only
three subnet sizes (classes):

Class A= /8 (4M), B = /16 (65k), C = /24 (255 addresses)
If an org needed 260 addresses, a Class B (65,535) was allocated.
Network Layer 4-63
IPv6 Header (Cont)
Priority: identify priority among datagrams in flow
Flow Label: identify datagrams in same “flow.”
(concept of“flow” not well defined).
Next header: identify upper layer protocol for data
“6to4 Translation”
4-byte IPv4 -> 16-byte IPv6
A.B.C.D -> :2002:aabb:ccdd/80
“:aa:”=“A in 2-char hex”
“:bb:”=“B in 2-char hex”
etc.
IPv4 address can become an
IPv6 sub-net with 80 bits for
“host” addresses (1e24 hosts)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6to4
Slide modified 10/23/2012 by JAC
Network Layer 4-64
Example – 6to4 convert 130.207.17.25 to IPv6 address
Convert the decimal byte-representations to hex:
130 = 0x82 207 = 0xCF 17 = 0x11 25 = 0x19
IPv6 addresses are written with colons separating every
16 bits (4 hex characters).
:0000: can be written ::
The first 16 bits 0x2002 are a reserved /16 block of
addresses reserved for IPv4 translations.
:2002::::::::/16
“6to4 Translation”
Next add the IPv4 32 bits:
4-byte IPv4 -> 16-byte IPv6
:2002:82CF:1119::::::/48
A.B.C.D -> :2002:aabb:ccdd/32
This is not just a single IPv6
“:aa:”=“A in 2-char hex”
“:bb:”=“B in 2-char hex”
address, but a block of 2^80
etc.
possible host addresses that
IPv4 address can become an IPv6
can replace private subnet
sub-net with 80 bits for “host”
addresses, like 192.168.0.0/16's. addresses (1e24 hosts)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6to4
Other Changes from IPv4
 Checksum: removed entirely to reduce
processing time at each hop
 Options: allowed, but outside of header,
indicated by “Next Header” field

(segmentation is done in Options Header,
only if needed)
 ICMPv6: new version of ICMP
 additional
message types, e.g. “Packet Too Big”
 multicast group management functions
