Layer 3 (IP) Basics
• Provides ability to address devices with a
logical address and route traffic not locally
attached
– Logical addresses are applied to source and
destination nodes or devices
– Paths are determined to forward data from a
local device to a remote device on another
network

Why a Logical Address
• Hierarchical addresses provide reachability
across boundaries called subnets
• Similar to the phone system with area codes
to differentiate geographical regions or zip
codes to indicate different cities and towns
• A hierarchical logical computer address
contains a network identifier and host or
unit identifier
IIUSA – Internet Institute
Network Segments
• The size of a network dictates traffic load and
potential for overload
• As growth overwhelms a network (similar to cars
crowding a highway), segments can be created to
off load traffic
• Each new segment is autonomous of other
network segments
• Without segmentation, all addressing would be
done through a flat addressing scheme (MAC
addressing) overwhelming segmentation discovery
devices (routers)
IIUSA – Internet Institute
Connectivity Between Segments
• Segments can communicate through devices
that determine a path from one network to
another over communications lines
• Devices (routers) can determine the best
path in the case of multiple paths
• Paths or routes are stored in routing tables

Network Layer Addressing
• Routers use a portion of the address to
determination Network identification
• All hosts or devices within a given network
segment are identified by a host portion of
the address
• IP Addresses 172.16.10.100

Path Determination
• Network layer determines BEST path from
source to destination
• A router examines reported paths over links,
determining best path from metrics
associated with each path

Reserved Address Space
• 0s (zeros) in the host portion of the address
space is reserved for the network number
– Example: 172.16.0.0
• 1s in the host portion of the address is
reserved for the broadcast address
– Example: 172.16.255.255

A Case for Subnetting
• The original IP addressing scheme was sufficient
for the early days of the internetworking
environment
• As the Internet grew in the 1990s, addressing,
using classful addressing became impractical
• Subnetting (classless) addressing became the
answer for address space depletion
IIUSA – Internet Institute
Subnetting
• Subnetting borrows host bits to increase the
number of networks
• The number of hosts is reduced in
proportion to the number of bits borrowed

Routed Versus Routing Protocols
Routed Protocols – Any network protocol
run on a workstation as a part of the
network operating system that provides
networking capabilities (Ex: TCP/IP)
Routing Protocols – Protocols run on a
router to provide the ability for the router to
share path information (Ex: RIP, IGRP)
IIUSA – Internet Institute
Routing Protocols
• Interior Routing Protocols – support the
sharing of routes or paths within the internal
internetwork
(Ex: RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, OSPF)
• Exterior Routing Protocols – support the
sharing of routes or paths across large
internetworks, such as the Internet
(Ex: BGP and EGP)
IIUSA – Internet Institute
Routing Metrics
• All routing protocols utilize metrics to
characterize best path information

IIUSA – Internet Institute
Static versus Dynamic Routes
• Static routes are established by a network
administrator and manually input directly
into the routing table
• Dynamic routes are learned through the use
of a Routing Protocol. Dynamic routes are
adaptive. Changes to path availability or
establishment of new paths are
automatically shared with other routers
IIUSA – Internet Institute
Routers
• A Router is a computer, with similar functionality
• Forwards packets, from incoming interface to
outgoing interfaced, based on best path as
determined by routes available in the routers
Routing Table
• Segments a LAN into separate Broadcast Domains
• Must be used when connecting LANs across wide
area network environment
