  4. Messages • At a low level, network communication occurs via messages. • A message is simply a byte string passed between two levels of the system (e.g., OS to OS, app to app). • A message usually contains a header, indicating what kind of information it contains, and some data. • What the message “means,” i.e., how to interpret the bytes in the message, is an agreement between the two communicating parties (the protocol). • Protocols exist at all levels • hardware, operating system, software, etc...

  5. The anatomy of a message destination host addr. source host addr. Where are messages kept before they are sent? and after they are received? header application ID msg length The msg data may itself contain a header and some data for another level of communication, and so on. msg data checksum

  6. Start (7 bytes) Destination (6) Source (6) Length (2) Length (2) Message data (1500) Checksum (4) Addressing and Packet Format • Every network card has a unique address in HARDWARE. • The ``Data'' segment contains higher level protocol information. • Which protocol is this packet destined for? • Which process is the packet destined for? • Which packet is this in a sequence of packets? • What kind of packet is this? • This is the stuff of the OSI reference model.

  7. Ethernet packet dispatching • An incoming packet comes into the ethernet controller. • The ethernet controller reads it off the network into a buffer. • It interrupts the CPU. • A network interrupt handler reads the packet out of the controller into memory. • A dispatch routine looks at the Data part and hands it to a higher level protocol • The higher level protocol copies it out into user space. • A program manipulates the data. • The output path is similar. • Consider what happens when you send mail.

  9. routing table Router gateway Routing • Moving packets from one network to another. • Routers run their own address distribution protocol to ensure connectivity • decisions based on a distance metric

  10. Protocols • Protocols are concerned with delivering data to applications. • telnet, ftp, mail, www • Low level • ethernet/IP • High level • TCP • Goal is to make the network behave like something it is fundamentally not • a single network • circuit switched • reliable • efficient • fast

  11. Key Networking Concepts • TCP/IP provides reliable, ordered bytestreams between pairs of processes • UDP/IP provides unreliable, unordered messages between pairs of processes • A network interface delivers packets to the operating system. • The operating system delivers messages to an application according to the destination specified in the packet • The rest is all about distributed programming!
