Chapter 4 Introduction to Network Layer Kyung Hee University 1 4.1 Introduction At the conceptual level, we can think of the global Internet as a black box network that connects millions of computers Application Application Transport Transport Network Network Data link Data link Physical Physical Internet A B Kyung Hee University 2 Internet as a combination of LAN and WANs Internet is made of many networks (or links) connected together through the connecting device Internet is a internetwork, a combination of LANs and WANs Kyung Hee University 3 4.2 Switching Circuit Switching A physical circuit is established between the source and destination of the message before the delivery of the message The source informs the network that transmission is complete The network opens all switched for another devices A good example of circuit-switched network early telephone system Packet Switching The network layer in the Internet today : packet-switched network A message from the upper layer is divided into the packets The source sends packets to destination one-by-one The packet switched network decides the route of the message from source to final destination Classification : Datagram, Virtual Circuit Kyung Hee University 4 4.2 Switching (con’t) In circuit switching, the whole message is sent from the source to the destination without being divided into packets. In packet switching, the message is first divided into manageable packets at the source before being transmitted. The packets are assembled at the destination. Kyung Hee University 5 4.3 Packet Switching The network layer is designed as a packet-switched network The packet at the source is divided into manageable packets, called datagram Individual datagrams are transferred from source to the destination The received datagrams are assembled at the destination before recreating original message Provided services Connectionless service Connection-oriented service Kyung Hee University 6 Connectionless Packet-Switched Network Each packet is routed based on the information contained in its header There is no relationship between packets The switches in this type of network are called routers Network A connectionless packet-swtiched network R1 R2 4 3 2 1 2 Sender 1 Network 4 2 3 R4 1 3 3 4 1 3 4 2 R3 R5 Out of order Kyung Hee Receiver University 7 Forwarding Process in Connectionless Network The router routes the packet based only on the destination address Legend SA: Source address Routing table DA: Destination address Destination Output address interface A 1 B 2 H Send the packet 3 out of interface 2 Destination address SA DA Data 1 2 SA DA Data 3 4 Kyung Hee University 8 Delay in a Connectionless network Destination Souce 1 y a l e

between all packets belonging to a message A virtual connection should be set up to defines the virtual path the packet should follow After connection setup, the datagrams can follow the same path The packet must contain a flow label, a virtual circuit identifier Each packet is forwarded based on the label in the packet Kyung Hee University 10 Connection-Oriented Packet Switched Network Each packet is forwarded through virtual path Legend 4 3 2 1 Packets Network Virtual circuit A connection-oriented packet-switched network R1 R2 4 3 2 1 Sender 4 R5 3 Network 2 1 4 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 R3 R4 Receiver Kyung Hee University 11 Setup Phase of Connection-Oriented Service Setup Phase A router creates an entry for virtual circuit A request packet carries the source and destination address An acknowledgement packet complete the entries in the switching tables Data Transfer Phase : the network-layer packets belonging to one message can be sent one after another Teardown Phase After sending all packets to destination, source sends a special packet called a teardown packet A destination responds with a confirmation packet All routers delete the corresponding entry from their tables Kyung Hee University 12 Forwarding Process in Connection-Oriented Network Forwarding decision is based on the label in the packet Routing Table Legend Incoming Outgoing SA: Source address Port Label Port

publishing company, Wonderful Publishing, needs to send a message to Bob, the manager of a flower shop, Just Flower, to inform him that the advertising brochure for the shop has been printed and is ready to be shipped Logical Addressing Identification provided in the network-layer through a uniform and global addressing mechanism Kyung Hee University 18 An Imaginary part of the Internet Legend

the Source Computer Packetizing Encapsulate the data coming from the upper layer in a datagram Finding Logical Address of Next Hop Consult a routing table to find the logical address of the next hop Finding MAC Address of Next Hop Using ARP(Address Resolution Protocol) Fragmentation When the datagram is bigger then MTU(Maximum Transmission Unit) datagram needs to be fragmented to smaller units before being passed to the data link layer Kyung Hee University 20 Services Provided at the Source Computer Kyung Hee University 21 Services Provided at Each Router A router is involved with two interface (the incoming interface and the outgoing interface) Finding next-hop logical address Finding next-hop MAC address Fragmentation Kyung Hee University 22 Processing at Each Router Kyung Hee University 23 Services Provided at the Destination Computer Reassemble the fragment (Validating each datagram) Deliver the data to upper layer Set a reassembly timer, if the timer is expired, all data fragments are destroyed and an error message is sent that all the fragmented datagram need to be resent Kyung Hee University 24 Processing at the Destination Computer Kyung Hee University 25 4.5 Other Network Layer Issues Error Control Mechanism for detecting corrupted, lost or duplicate datagram Checksum, ICMP Flow Control Regulate the amount of data a source can send without overwhelming the receiver Congestion Control Congestion in the network layer is a situation in which too many datagrams are present in an area of the internet Choke protocol in connectionless network and ICMP Advanced negotiation during connection setup in connection-oriented network QoS (Quality of Service) For Multimedia communication(real-time communication of audio and video) Routing - How a router creates its routing table Security IPSec Kyung Hee University 26 Error Checking at the Data Link Layer The case of that there are some areas in the path of the datagram that some errors may occurs but never checked Kyung Hee University 27 Note No flow control is provided for the current version of Internet network layer Kyung Hee University 28 Summary(1) At the conceptual level. We can think of the global Internet as a black box network. The Internet, however, is not one single network; it is made of many networks (or links) connected together through the connecting devices. In this Internet, a connecting device such as a router acts as a switch.
