    Study Notes

    Network Fundamentals

    • DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain names to IP addresses
    • DNS uses TCP/UDP client port 53
    • DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) dynamically assigns IP addresses, uses UDP client port 68 and server port 67

    Web Protocols

    • HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is a set of rules for exchanging text, images, audio, and video on the World Wide Web
    • HTTP uses TCP port 80 and 8080
    • HTTP is used for web services and web servers
    • When accessing a URL, the browser interprets three parts: protocol (http), server name (www.cisco.com), and filename (index.html)

    IP Addressing Services

    • Domain names were created to convert numeric IP addresses to simple, recognizable names (FQDNs)
    • Domain Name Service (DNS) is primarily an individual application that a user has chosen to install
    • Registered ports: 1,024 to 49,151, chosen by a user or organization for specific applications
    • Private/dynamic ports: 49,152 to 65,535, assigned dynamically by the client's OS

    Application, Presentation, and Session Layers

    • TCP/IP application layer protocols specify format and control information for common internet communication functions
    • Application layer protocols must be compatible between source and destination devices
    • Examples of IPv6 addresses: 2001:db8:cafe:1:0:0:0:1, 2001:db8:cafe:1::1, 2001:0db8:0000:1111:0000:0000:0000:0200, 2001:db8:0:1111::200

    Transportation of Data

    • Transport layer protocols specify how to transfer messages between hosts and manage reliability requirements
    • The transport layer includes TCP and UDP protocols
    • IP does not specify how delivery or transportation of packets takes place
