Internet packet format
Internet routing
 RFC 791 (1981)
IP Address Details
 32 Bits - divided into two parts
Prefix identifies network
Suffix identifies host
 Global authority assigns unique prefix to network (IANA)
 Local administrator assigns unique suffix to host
IP Addresses
given notion of “network”, let’s examine IP addresses:
“class-full” addressing:
class

Classes and Network Sizes
 Maximum network size determined by class of
address
 Class A large
 Class B medium
 Class C small
IP Addressing Example
Subnets and Subnet Masks
 Allow arbitrary complexity of internetworked LANs within
organization
 Insulate overall internet from growth of network
numbers and routing complexity
 Site looks to rest of internet like single network
 Each LAN assigned subnet number
 Host portion of address partitioned into subnet number
and host number
 Local routers route within subnetted network
 Subnet mask indicates which bits are subnet number
and which are host number
Routing Using Subnets
IP addressing: CIDR
 classful addressing:
 inefficient use of address space, address space exhaustion
 e.g., class B net allocated enough addresses for 65K hosts, even if
only 2K hosts in that network
 CIDR: Classless InterDomain Routing
 network portion of address of arbitrary length
 address format: a.b.c.d/x, where x is # bits in network portion of
address

IP Fragmentation & Reassembly
 network links have MTU
(max.transfer size) - largest
possible link-level frame.
fragmentation:
in: one large datagram
out: 3 smaller datagrams
 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

IP Semantics
IP is connectionless
Datagram contains identity of destination
Each datagram sent/ handled independently
Routes can change at any time
IP Semantics (continued)
IP allows datagrams to be
Delayed
Duplicated
Delivered out-of-order
Lost
Called best effort delivery
Motivation: accommodate all possible
networks
Datagram Lifetime
Datagrams could loop indefinitely
Consumes resources
Transport protocol may need upper bound on
datagram life
Datagram marked with lifetime
Time To Live field in IP
Once lifetime expires, datagram discarded (not
forwarded)
Hop count
Decrement time to live on passing through a each router
Time count
Need to know how long since last router
ICMP
Internet Control Message Protocol
RFC 792
Transfer of (control) messages from routers and
hosts to hosts
Feedback about problems
e.g. time to live expired
Encapsulated in IP datagram
Not reliable
ICMP Error Messages
When an ICMP error message is sent, the
message always contains the IP header and the
first 8 bytes of the IP datagram that caused the
problem
ICMP has rules regarding error message
generation to prevent broadcast storms
ICMP Echo Command
Used by “ping” and “tracert”
When a destination IP host receives an ICMP
echo command, it returns and ICMP “echo
reply”
Ping uses this to determine if a path to a
destination (and its return path) are “up”
Tracert uses echo in a clever way to determine
the identities of the routers along the path (by
“scoping” TTL).
Address Resolution Problem
Suppose we know the IP Address of a local
system (one to which we are connected)
We would like to send an IP packet to that
system.
The link layer (ethernet, for instance) only
knows about MAC addresses!
How do we determine the MAC address
associated with the IP address?
ARP
Address resolution provides a mapping between
two different forms of addresses
32-bit IP addresses and whatever the data link uses
ARP (address resolution protocol) is a protocol
used to do address resolution in the TCP/IP
protocol suite (RFC826)
ARP provides a dynamic mapping from an IP
address to the corresponding hardware address
ARP Protocol
 A knows B's IP address, wants to learn physical address
of B
 A broadcasts ARP query pkt, containing B's IP address
all machines on LAN receive ARP query
 B receives ARP packet, replies to A with its (B's) physical
layer address
 A caches (saves) IP-to-physical address pairs until
information becomes old (times out)
soft state: information that times out (goes away) unless
refreshed
ARP Cache
The cache maintains the recent IP to physical
address mappings
Each entry is aged (usually the lifetime is 20
minutes) forcing periodic updates of the cache
ARP replies are often broadcast so that all hosts
can update their caches

Reliability in an Unreliable World
 IP offers best-effort (unreliable) delivery
 TCP uses IP
 TCP provides completely reliable transfer
 How is this possible? How can TCP realize:
Reliable connection startup?
Reliable data transmission?
Graceful connection shutdown?
Reliable Data Transmission
 Positive acknowledgment
 Receiver returns short message when data arrives
 Called acknowledgment
 Retransmission
 Sender starts timer whenever message is transmitted
 If timer expires before acknowledgment arrives, sender retransmits
message
 THIS IS NOT A TRIVIAL PROBLEM! – more on this later.
TCP Flow Control
 Receiver
Advertises available buffer space
Called window
This is a known as a CREDIT policy
 Sender
Can send up to entire window before ACK arrives
 Each acknowledgment carries new window
information
Called window advertisement
Can be zero (called closed window)
 Interpretation: I have received up through X, and can
take Y more octets
Credit Scheme
Decouples flow control from ACK
May ACK without granting credit and vice versa
Each octet has sequence number
Each transport segment has seq number, ack
number and window size in header
Use of Header Fields
When sending, seq number is that of first octet
in segment
ACK includes AN=i, W=j
All octets through SN=i-1 acknowledged
Next expected octet is i
Permission to send additional window of W=j
octets
i.e. octets through i+j-1
Credit Allocation
TCP Flow Control

sender won’t overrun
receiver’s buffers by
transmitting too much,
too fast
RcvBuffer = size of TCP Receive Buffer
RcvWindow = amount of spare room in Buffer
receiver buffering
receiver: explicitly informs
sender of (dynamically
changing) amount of
free buffer space
RcvWindow field in
TCP segment
sender: keeps the amount
of transmitted, unACKed
data less than most

Why Startup/ Shutdown Difficult?
 Segments can be
Lost
Duplicated
Delayed
Delivered out of order
Either side can crash
Either side can reboot
 Need to avoid duplicate ‘‘shutdown’’ message from affecting
later connection
TCP Connection Management
Recall: TCP sender, receiver
establish “connection” before
exchanging data segments
 initialize TCP variables:
seq. #s
buffers, flow control info
(e.g. RcvWindow)
 client: connection initiator
Socket clientSocket = new
Socket("hostname","port
number");
 server: contacted by client
Socket connectionSocket =
welcomeSocket.accept();
Three way handshake:
Step 1: client end system sends
TCP SYN control segment to
server
specifies initial seq #
Step 2: server end system
receives SYN, replies with
SYNACK control segment
ACKs received SYN
allocates buffers
specifies server-> receiver
initial seq. #

Timing Problem!
The delay required for data to reach a destination and an
acknowledgment to return depends on traffic in the internet as
well as the distance to the destination. Because it allows
multiple application programs to communicate with multiple
destinations concurrently, TCP must handle a variety of delays
that can change rapidly.
How does TCP handle this .....
Solving Timing Problem
 Keep estimate of round trip time on each connection
 Use current estimate to set retransmission timer
 Known as adaptive retransmission
 Key to TCP’s success
TCP Round Trip Time and Timeout
Q: how to set TCP
timeout value?
 longer than RTT
note: RTT will vary
 too short: premature
timeout
unnecessary
retransmissions
 too long: slow reaction
to segment loss
Q: how to estimate RTT?
 SampleRTT: measured time from
segment transmission until ACK
receipt
ignore retransmissions,
cumulatively ACKed segments
 SampleRTT will vary, want
estimated RTT “smoother”
use several recent
measurements, not just current
SampleRTT
TCP Round Trip Time and Timeout
EstimatedRTT = (1-x)*EstimatedRTT + x*SampleRTT
 Exponential weighted moving average
 influence of given sample decreases exponentially fast
 typical value of x: 0.1
Setting the timeout
 EstimtedRTT plus “safety margin”
 large variation in EstimatedRTT -> larger safety margin
Timeout = EstimatedRTT + 4*Deviation
Deviation = (1-x)*Deviation +
x*|SampleRTT-EstimatedRTT|

Keeps sender’s pipe open
Cumulative
Wait a bit before sending ACK (called “delayed ACK”)
Must use timer to insure ACK is sent
Less network traffic

UDP: User Datagram Protocol
 “no frills,” “bare bones”
Internet transport protocol
 “best effort” service, UDP
segments may be:
lost
delivered out of order to
app
 connectionless:
no handshaking between
UDP sender, receiver
each UDP segment
handled independently of
others
[RFC 768]
Why is there a UDP?
 no connection
establishment (which
can add delay)
 simple: no connection
state at sender, receiver
 small segment header
 no congestion control:
