  5. Types of Services • Connection-oriented vs Connectionless service • Reliable vs unreliable service • Byte-stream vs datagram delivery • Flow-control vs Congestion Control • In-order vs out-of-order (rather any-order) delivery • Quality-of-service vs best-effort delivery • Performance requirements: Bandwidth, Delay, Data loss rate

  12. Application layer protocols… • FTP • Protocol overview • Control vs Data connection • Why do we need two connections

  13. Application layer protocols… • Email • Architecture overview • How email gets from one place to another • Difference between mailbox and message queues • Protocol overview • SMTP, POP3, IMAP, HTTP • How they differ • SMTP vs. HTTP • Push vs Pull architecture • Why is it so easy to send SPAM emails? • What is the main drawback of current architecture that lets this happen?

  14. Domain Name System • Overview • What does it do? • How it works? • Why is it not centralized? • Root vs TLD vs Authoritative vs Local DNS servers • What’s the hierarchy? • Where does Local DNS server belong?

  15. Domain Name System… • Iterative vs recursive queries • Pros and cons of each • DNS caching – how it helps? • Types of DNS records • How to insert new records into DNS

  16. Socket API • Sequence of Socket API calls • At client and at server • For TCP and for UDP • How do you specify a server’s port number • How does a client get a port number?

  17. Chapter 3

IP datagram format IP protocol version number 32 bits total datagram length (bytes) header length (bytes) type of service head. len ver length for fragmentation/ reassembly fragment offset “type” of data flgs 16-bit identifier max number remaining hops (decremented at each router) upper layer time to live Internet checksum 32 bit source IP address 32 bit destination IP address upper layer protocol to deliver payload to E.g. timestamp, record route taken, specify list of routers to visit.
