Principles of Internet - WMMRPDI

Goal(s)

ce cours a pour but de démystifier complètement la pile TCP/IP en approfondissant toutes ces couches de la couche 2 (Liaison) à la couche 5 (Application) tout en acquérant une expérience concrète à travers les TP.

• acquire fundamental knowledge in computer networks and communication systems
• understand the design of IP networks and the Internet
• study the principles of operator networks and network interconnection

Content(s)

1. Fundamental concepts, Infrastructure and Network Architecture

• • Infrastructure (Access networks, Core networks, ISP hierarchy, Client/Server model, ...)
  • Protocol performance (Transmission, Propagation, ...)
  • Switched networks and basic techniques (circuit switching, message switching, packet switching, connection modes)
  • Notion of protocol (basic functions, basic mechanisms), Encapsulation
  • Layered architecture (OSI, TCP/IP, general overview, functions of each layer)
  • Addressing and naming, DNS naming system
  • HTTP protocol

1. Local Area Networks

• • Ethernet/802.3, basic topologies
  • Access methods: CSMA/CD
  • Notion of a bridge: learning bridges, switched networks – switch
  • VLANs
  • ARP protocol

1. IP Networks

• • Internet layer (IP): addressing, packet forwarding, IPv4 features, ICMP, DHCP
  • IPv6 layer: addressing, autoconfiguration, neighbor discovery, ICMPv6

1. Network Interconnection

• • General overview
  • Routing principles, hierarchical routing in the Internet
  • Interior routing protocols: distance vector, link-state
  • Study of the RIP protocol

1. Transport Protocols

• • Principles of reliable data transfer and flow control
  • Study of TCP and UDP protocols
  • Socket interface
  • TCP congestion control
  • NAT principle

1. DNS

• • Principles, server configuration and security

--

• Practical labs:
  -- Network assembly — observations, performance measurements
  -- VLAN and proxy ARP - VLAN configuration on a switch
  -- Network interconnection – static routing configuration, RIP
  -- Study of transport protocols
  -- Address translation, firewalls
  -- Client/server application programming - sockets
