• On our last module, you have learned that the application layer is the user
interface that internet users interact with to send or receive data through
email, online games, peer to peer file transfer, and other applications.
• The presentation layer translates the commands received from the
application layer into universal, well-known networking formats.
• The session layer makes it possible to establish an open communication line
to send the requested packets.
• The transport layer not only defines how data is sent, but also provides
validation and firewall security.
• The network layer seeks for the best-known path to route information to
reach its destination similar to searching for an address on a GPS.
• The Data Link Layer ensures that a transmission occurs without any errors
and lastly physical layer consists of the physical components in a Local Area
Network (LAN) such as networking hardware and Ethernet cables.

INTRODUCTION
The IP or Internet Protocol is the fundamental protocol for communications
on the Internet. It specifies the way information is packetized, addressed,
transferred, routed, and received by networked devices.

IP HISTORY
• Its development began in 1947, led by computer scientists Bob Kahn and
Vint Cerf. It is frequently used in conjunction with the Transmission Control
Protocol or TCP. Together they are referred to as TCP/IP.
• The first major version of the Internet Protocol was version 4 or IPv4. In
1981, it was formally defined in RFC 791 by the Internet Engineering Task Force
or IETF.
• The successor to IPv4 is IPv6, which was formalized by the IETF in 1998.
It was designed to eventually replace IPv4. As of 2018, IPv6 governs approximately
20% of all Internet traffic.

IP ADDRESS
It is a number identification of a computer or another device on the Internet.
It is similar to a mailing address which identifies where postal mail comes from
and where it should be delivered. IP addresses uniquely identify the source and
destination of data transmitted with the Internet Protocol.
IP ADDRESS CLASSES
With an IPv4 IP address, there are five classes of available IP ranges: Class
A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E. The table below shows the summary of
the IP classes.

We only need to know three classes from the table which is Class A, B and
C. Class D and E are reserved IP address for special purposes.
Class A are associated with IP addresses that begin with the number 1-126.
If an IP address happens to start with a 128 – 191 then that is a class B address.
Lastly, if an IP address starts with a 192-223 then that is a class C address.
Now let us look at a number of different IP addresses and determine what
class this particular IP address belongs to.
1. 17.22.90.7 - A
2. 220.10.77.40 - C
3. 165.254.0.1 - B
Our first is 17.22.90.7. We know that the leading value of the given address-
is 17 and if we refer back to our chart of IP address classes, we would be able to
know that 17 is in between 0-126, therefore 17.22.90.7 is a class A address.
Ranges 127.x.x.x are reserved for the loopback or localhost and range
255.255.255.255 is a special type of IP address which is called the limited
broadcast address. A broadcast involves delivering a message from one sender to
many recipients. Senders direct an IP broadcast to 255.255.255.255 to indicate
all other nodes on the local area network to pick up that message.

STATIC VS. DYNAMIC IP ADDRESSES


IP addresses are assigned in two different ways. They may be dynamically
assigned or statically assigned. Dynamically assigned means the IP address can
change automatically and statically assigned means they are intended not to
change automatically and must be changed manually.
Most home networks use dynamic allocation including our laptops, mobile
devices and tablets. Your router uses DHCP to temporarily assign or lease an IP
address to your device. After a period of time, this lease expires and the router
renews your old address or assigns you a new one depending on the needs of the
network and configuration of the router.

The following diagram illustrates how your home computer might obtain IP
address and send data to an IP address on another network.
PACKET
The packet is a term first coined by Donald Davies in 1965 that is used to
describe a segment of data sent from one computer or device to another over a
network. You can think of it as a package filled with data being delivered to another
area. A packet is used because it divides data into easier-to-manage chunks,
which move information more efficiently and keep network resources from being
tied up by a single, larger file.

WHAT IS IN A PACKET?
A packet contains a source, destination, data, size, and other useful
information that helps packet make it to the appropriate location and get
reassembled properly. Below is a breakdown of a TCP packet.

NETWORK PACKET BASICS


• Another name for a packet is a datagram.
• Data transferred over the Internet is sent as one or more packets. The most
common packet sent is the TCP packet.
• The size of a packet is limited. So, most data sent over a network is broken
up into multiple packets before being sent out and then put back together
when received.
• When a packet is transmitted over a network, network routers and switches
examine the packet and its source to help direct it to the correct location.
• During its transmission, network packets can be dropped. If a packet is not
received or an error occurs, it is sent again.
