Learning outcome

• Look at TCP/IP internal
• Each discuss the role and the details of each
  layer
• Mainly TCP, UDP AND IP
• Opening and closing connections
• Routing
• Flow control
• Reliable data transmission
• Identify different classes of IP addresses
• Break down an IP address into network, subnet and
  host IDs
• List the factors contributing the shortage of IP
  address and some techniques proposed to solve
  this problem

Learning outcome contd

• As explained in the first chapter 2
• Each layer adds header information to the block
  of data passed to it from the previous layer
• And these headers are interpreted and removed by
  corresponding layer at the receiving end
• In this Chapter (ch. 3 )
• We will look in details at the header information
  constructed at the transport and internet layers
• We will also show how this information is used
