44The network edge
- end systems (hosts)
- run application programs
- e.g. Web, email
- at edge of network
- client/server model
- client host requests, receives service from
always-on server - e.g. Web browser/server email client/server
- peer-peer model
- minimal (or no) use of dedicated servers
- e.g. Gnutella, KaZaA
45Network edge connection-oriented service
- Goal data transfer between end systems
- handshaking setup (prepare for) data transfer
ahead of time - Hello, hello back human protocol
- set up state in two communicating hosts
- TCP - Transmission Control Protocol
- Internets connection-oriented service
- TCP service RFC 793
- reliable, in-order byte-stream data transfer
- loss acknowledgements and retransmissions
- flow control
- sender wont overwhelm receiver
- congestion control
- senders slow down sending rate when network
congested
46Network edge connectionless service
- Goal data transfer between end systems
- same as before!
- UDP - User Datagram Protocol RFC 768
Internets connectionless service - unreliable data transfer
- no flow control
- no congestion control
- Apps using TCP

47ltDigression/ For A1The Web the http protocol
- http hypertext transfer protocol
- Webs application layer protocol
- client/server model
- client browser that requests, receives,
displays Web objects - server Web server sends objects in response to
requests - http1.0 RFC 1945
- http1.1 RFC 2068
http request
PC running Explorer
http response
Server running NCSA Web server
http request
http response
Mac running Navigator
48The http protocol more
- http TCP transport service
- client initiates TCP connection (creates socket)
to server, port 80 - server accepts TCP connection from client
- http messages (application-layer protocol
messages) exchanged between browser (http client)
and Web server (http server) - TCP connection closed
49Web caches (proxy server) (A1)
Goal satisfy client request without involving
origin server
- User sets browser Web accesses via cache
- 1. Browser sends all HTTP requests to cache
- 2. Object in cache cache returns object
- 3. Else cache requests object from origin server
server returns object - 4. Cache then stores and forward object to client

50More about Web caching
- Cache acts as both client and server
- Typically cache is installed by ISP (university,
company, residential ISP)
- Why Web caching?
- Reduce response time for client request.
- Reduce traffic on an institutions access link.
- Internet dense with caches enables poor content
providers to effectively deliver content (but so
does P2P file sharing)

- 1.1 What is the Internet?
- 1.2 Network edge
- 1.3 Network core
- 1.4 Network access and physical media
- 1.5 Internet structure and ISPs
- 1.6 Protocol layers, service models

52The Network Core
- mesh of interconnected routers
- the fundamental question how is data transferred
through net? - circuit switching dedicated circuit per call
telephone net - packet-switching data sent thru net in discrete
chunks
53Switching Strategies
- Circuit switching dedicated circuit
send/receive a bit stream - original telephone network
- Packet switching store-and-forward send/receive
messages (packets) - Internet
54Switching Strategies
- (a) Circuit switching (b) Message switching
(c) Packet switching
55Network Core Circuit Switching
- End-end resources reserved for call
- link bandwidth, switch capacity
- dedicated resources no sharing
- circuit-like (guaranteed) performance
- call setup required
56Network Core Circuit Switching
- network resources (e.g., bandwidth) divided into
pieces - pieces allocated to calls
- resource piece idle if not used by owning call
(no sharing)
- dividing link bandwidth into pieces
- frequency division
- time division
57Circuit Switching FDM and TDM
58Time Division Multiplexing (T1 Carrier)
- The T1 carrier (1.544 Mbps).
(1 bit 24 slots 8 bits/slot) 8000 frames/s
193 bits/frame 8000 frames/s 1.544 Mbps
59Network Core Packet Switching
- each end-end data stream divided into packets
- user A, B packets share network resources
- each packet uses full link bandwidth
- resources used as needed
- resource contention
- aggregate resource demand can exceed amount
available - congestion packets queue, wait for link use
- store and forward packets move one hop at a time
- Node receives complete packet before forwarding
60Packet Switching Statistical Multiplexing
10 Mb/s Ethernet
C
A
statistical multiplexing
1.5 Mb/s
B
queue of packets waiting for output link
- Sequence of A B packets does not have fixed
pattern ? statistical multiplexing. - In TDM each host gets same slot in revolving TDM
frame.
61Packet switching versus circuit switching
- Packet switching allows more users to use network!
- 1 Mb/s link
- each user
- 100 kb/s when active
- active 10 of time
- circuit-switching
- 10 users
- packet switching
- with 35 users, probability gt 10 active less than
.0004
N users
1 Mbps link
62Packet switching versus circuit switching
- Is packet switching a slam dunk winner?
- Great for bursty data
- resource sharing
- simpler, no call setup
- Excessive congestion packet delay and loss
- protocols needed for reliable data transfer,
congestion control - Q How to provide circuit-like behavior?
- bandwidth guarantees needed for audio/video apps
- still an unsolved problem (chapter 6)
63Packet-switching store-and-forward
L
R
R
R
- Takes L/R seconds to transmit (push out) packet
of L bits on to link or R bps - Entire packet must arrive at router before it
can be transmitted on next link store and
forward - delay 3L/R
- Example
- L 7.5 Mbits
- R 1.5 Mbps
- delay 15 sec
64Packet Switching Message Segmenting
- Now break up the message into 5000 packets
- Each packet 1,500 bits
- 1 msec to transmit packet on one link
- pipelining each link works in parallel
- Delay reduced from 15 sec to 5.002 sec
65Packet-switched networks forwarding
- Goal move packets through routers from source to
destination - well study several path selection (i.e.
routing)algorithms (chapter 4) - datagram network
- destination address in packet determines next
hop - routes may change during session
- analogy driving, asking directions
- virtual circuit network
- each packet carries tag (virtual circuit ID),
tag determines next hop - fixed path determined at call setup time, remains
fixed thru call - routers maintain per-call state
66Network Taxonomy
Telecommunication networks
- Datagram network is not either
connection-oriented - or connectionless.
- Internet provides both connection-oriented (TCP)
and - connectionless services (UDP) to apps.

- 1.5 Internet structure and ISPs
- 1.6 Protocol layers, service models
- 1.7 Delay loss in packet-switched networks
- 1.8 History
107How do loss and delay occur?
- packets queue in router buffers
- packet arrival rate to link exceeds output link
capacity - packets queue, wait for turn
A
B
108What Goes Wrong in the Network?
- Bit-level errors (electrical interference)
probp - Packet-level errors (congestion) 1-(1-p)L
- Link and node failures
- Messages are delayed
- Messages are delivered out-of-order
- Third parties eavesdrop
- The key problem is to fill in the gap between
what - applications expect and what the underlying
- technology provides.
109Four sources of packet delay
- 1. nodal processing
- check bit errors
- determine output link
- 2. queueing
- time waiting at output link for transmission
- depends on congestion level of router
110Delay in packet-switched networks
- 4. Propagation delay
- d length of physical link
- s propagation speed in medium (2x108 m/sec)
- propagation delay d/s
- 3. Transmission delay
- Rlink bandwidth (bps)
- Lpacket length (bits)
- time to send bits into link L/R
Note s and R are very different quantities!
111Nodal delay
- dproc processing delay
- typically a few microsecs or less
- dqueue queuing delay
- depends on congestion
- dtrans transmission delay
- L/R, significant for low-speed links
- dprop propagation delay
- a few microsecs to hundreds of msecs
112Queueing delay (revisited)
- Rlink bandwidth (bps)
- Lpacket length (bits)
- aaverage packet arrival rate
traffic intensity La/R
- La/R 0 average queueing delay small
- La/R -gt 1 delays become large
- La/R gt 1 more work arriving than can be
serviced, average delay infinite!
113Real Internet delays and routes
- What do real Internet delay loss look like?
- Traceroute program provides delay measurement
from source to router along end-end Internet path
towards destination. For all i - sends three packets that will reach router i on
path towards destination - router i will return packets to sender
- sender times interval between transmission and
reply.

trans-oceanic link
means no response (probe lost, router not
replying)
115Packet loss
- queue (aka buffer) preceding link in buffer has
finite capacity - when packet arrives to full queue, packet is
dropped (aka lost) - lost packet may be retransmitted by previous
node, by source end system, or not retransmitted
at all
