Study Notes
HTTP Transmission
- HTTP Get Request involves sending a request with the file name in the HTTP header.
- HTTP Reply includes a status code (200 for success or 404 for not found) and part of the requested file.
- Data can be sent in multiple segments without HTTP headers, each containing parts of the file.
Transport Layer Protocols
- Key protocols in the Transport layer are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
- These protocols provide services to application layer protocols in the TCP/IP model.
- Error recovery is vital for reliable data delivery in transport layer protocols.
TCP Error Recovery
- TCP incorporates a mechanism for ensuring data delivery across networks.
- It utilizes an acknowledgment system to confirm received data.
Network Layer Protocols
- The core protocol in the Network Layer is Internet Protocol (IP), focusing on addressing and routing data.
- Each device on a network is assigned a unique IP address to facilitate communication.
- IP packets are forwarded from one device to another, utilizing routers for routing.
IP Routing Process
- Data packets are sent from a device to a nearby router, which evaluates the destination address.
- Routers in the path forward packets to the next router based on their IP address evaluation.
Layered Networking Model
- The networking model facilitates data movement between devices, governed by rules and standards.
- TCP/IP is the predominant model in use today, emphasizing protocol adherence.
Physical and Data Link Layer
- The Physical layer oversees cabling and signal transmission, while the Data Link layer governs rules for data transfer.
- Common protocols at the Data Link layer include Ethernet and 802.11.
Data Encapsulation
- Encapsulation involves wrapping data with headers and trailers across various layers.
- Terminology:
- Segment: Transport Layer
- Packet: Network Layer
- Frame: Link Layer
OSI Networking Model
- The OSI model, though foundational, is less widely used than TCP/IP.
- The OSI model's Application layer is referred to as “Layer 7”.
Key Learning Objectives
- Understand networking concepts and enterprise network perspectives.
- Explain basics of TCP/IP model and functionalities of different layers.
- Distinguish between OSI and TCP/IP models, including data encapsulation terminology.
