Study Notes
Host vs End System
- Host and end system refer to the same thing: devices connected to the internet.
Protocol Standards
- Standards guarantee interoperability between different devices and systems.
Access Technologies
- Examples include Dial-up, DSL, Cable, and Ethernet.
Internet Protocol Stack Layers
- The layers are Application, Transport, Network, Link, and Physical.
Circuit-Switched vs Packet-Switched Networks
- Circuit-switched networks provide guaranteed bandwidth during a session.
- Packet-switched networks do not guarantee bandwidth.
Peering Between ISPs
- Peering reduces costs and latency by allowing ISPs to bypass intermediaries.
Google's Private Network
- Google's private network improves user experience, reduces costs, and avoids ISP charges.
Networking Delays
- Delay types include processing, queuing, transmission, and propagation delays.
Network Protocol Stack Tasks
- Generic tasks include error control, flow control, segmentation, multiplexing, and connection setup.
ATM Protocol Design (P1)
- The ATM communicates with the bank using commands like HELO, PASSWD, BALANCE, WITHDRAW, and BYE.
- The server responds with messages like OK, ERR, and AMOUNT.
- Funds are dispensed for successful transactions.
- Insufficient funds result in an error message.
End-to-End Delay for Multiple Packets (P2)
- The total end-to-end delay for sending PPP packets over NNN links is (N+P−1)×LR(N + P - 1) \times \frac{L}{R}(N+P−1)×RL, where LLL is the packet size and RRR is the transmission rate.
Circuit vs Packet-Switched Networks (P3)
- Circuit-switched networks are suitable for applications with predictable bandwidth needs.
- Packet switching works without congestion control if the total data rate is below the link's capacity.
Car-Caravan Analogy (P5)
- The end-to-end delay for cars traveling between toll booths is approximately 57.457.457.4 minutes for 10 cars.
- The total delay for 8 cars is reduced to approximately 53 minutes.
