The Internet Sublayer
• Modern data communications require connectivity
through many different networks
• Existing networks offer diverse
– services levels (Connectionless/Connection Oriented)
– interfaces with transport layer
• An Interface layer (the INTERNET layer) is added on top
of the Network layers
• The INTERNET layer ensures
– Uniform addressing through all networks
– Well defined and identical services from all networks
– A common interface with the Transport layer.

12-06-K.Steenhaut & J.Tiberghien - VUB
The Internet Sublayer
Design Philosophy
• In the OSI Community :
Less performing networks are enhanced
– Additional sublayer between network and internet
layers : The Enhancement Sublayer.
– Most often, Connection oriented, Reliable.
– Inspired by X25
• In the Internet Community (Internet Protocol):
Minimal Internet Service definition
– Service restricted to whatever all networks can do :
Connectionless, Unreliable
– Inspired by Local Area Networks

Original IP Services
• Internet-wide uniform addressing.
– Two part addresses
» Network : identifies the network
» Host : identifies host on a specific network.
( Host part = subnet identifier + host identifier )
• Connectionless, unreliable datagram service
• Fragmentation when required by network
• Routing through the entire Internet.
• Elimination of “lost” datagrams
• Debugging facilities
• Special transmission modes

14
12-06-K.Steenhaut & J.Tiberghien - VUB
Internet multicasting
• Distribute information to a group of selected users
without overly taxing a networks’ resources
• Deliver ONE COPY of a datagram to all
subnetworks to which group members are attached
• Definition of Multicast host group
– Class D multicast addresses
• A mechanism to JOIN and LEAVE a multicast
group
– sender or receiver based control of group
membership
– protocols to transmit and manage the group
membership info throughout the network

IP v4 addresses
Four different address formats
Class A :
0
Net (7)
Host (24)
126 networks with up to 16 million hosts each
Class B :
10
Net (14)
Host (16)
16382 networks with up to 65534 hosts each
Class C :
110
Net (21)
Host (8)
2 million networks with up to 254 hosts each
Class D :
1110
Predefined Multicast groups(28)
Net/Host = all 0’s : Unknown address
Net/Host = all 1’s : Broadcast

Routing in large networks
• Complete routing tables impossible in large networks
• Hierarchical routing is the solution
– Routing table restricted to one level of hierarchy

Routing
• Routing = transmission of a datagram
– from a “source IP address”
– to a “destination IP address”
• Direct Routing
– Current and destination addresses on same network
– Direct delivery to destination
• Indirect Routing
– Current and destination addresses on different
networks
– Datagram forwarded from source to destination via
routers
– Routers have an address in at least two networks

table, find address of local router appropriate
for reaching that net;

• Problems with class based addressing :
– Too few Class B networks.
– Class C networks too small
• Obvious solution :
– Multiple Class C addresses for single network
• But…
– All routers should know all networks
– Over 10 6 class C networks possible !

Classless InterDomain Routing
Techniques to limit size of router tables:
• Replace classes by variable sized networks :
– associate with each network number a mask.
– mask defines network size.
– Router tables contain network number & mask
• Assign new addresses on a geographical basis :
– Europe :
194.0.0.0 to 195.255.255.255
– N.America :
198.0.0.0 to 199.255.255.255
– S.& C.America :
200.0.0.0 to 201.255.255.255
– Asia :
202.0.0.0 to 203.255.255.255

– Stream of bytes is transferred between applications
– Connection oriented full-duplex communication
– Data-stream decomposed in sequence of data
segments
– Error correction with sliding window algorithm
– Best effort congestion control
>> No guaranteed delays
• Service required from network layer :
– Connectionless network service

TCP Error Correction
• Sliding window error correction
• Cumulative Acknowledgment
– Position in stream of last received byte
– Acknowledgments piggybacking with reverse traffic
– Retransmission policy implementation dependent
• Adaptive time-out
– Network delays vary widely due to traffic fluctuations
– Round-trip time continuously monitored
– Time-out based on weighted average of round-trip times
• Congestion control
– Receiver congestion prevented by adapting window size
– Network congestion detected by round-trip delay analysis
– Congestion cured by slowing down transmissions

Network Address Translation
• Work-around for solving IPv4 address shortage.
• Maps many intranet addresses into a single internet
address.
• Uses TCP or UDP non standard port numbers to identify
hosts in the intranet.
• A NAT device can not be stateless and therefore is a
reliability threat.
• NAT devices are not transparent to transport protocols
different from TCP or UDP.
• NAT devices jeopardize peer to peer applications
• Is believed by some to increase intranet security
• Is a good excuse for further delaying IPv6 deployment

IP Next Generation
• Reasons to change IP
– Insufficient address space.
– No effective QOS guarantees
– No practical support for secure
communications
– No good support for multicasting
• Constraints on any successor to IP
– Upward compatibility with IPv4
– Not significantly less efficient than IPv4
66
12-06-K.Steenhaut & J.Tiberghien - VUB
IP ng = IPV6
• 2128 instead of 232 possible addresses
– Upward compatible with IP v4 addresses
– New “anycast” addressing mode
– Provisions for more efficient multicasting
– Provisions for addresses of other protocols
• Provisions for QOS specification
• More efficient header format
– Little used fields removed
– Options handled through extension header
• Security
– Authentication
– Data integrity
– Confidentiality
