3. Computer Network
 Computer network
is a number of computers (also
Known as Nodes) connected by some communication lines.
 Uses of Computer Network:
 Exchange of information between them
 Interconnected small computers in place of large computers
 For direct communication e g: voice , video.

4. Modes of Communication
 Point to point
 Broadcasting
 Multicasting
it is between the point to point and broadcasting
Dedicated (Simplex, half duplex, full duplex).
Shared (Multiplexing).
 Dedicated (Channel level- one way)
 Shared (Multiple access)
shared between multiple access and some
protocols are used that how they are using.
 Communication to the specified group but not to others.

5. Transmission Modes
 Simplex
 One direction
○ e.g. Television
 Half duplex
 Either direction, but only one way
at a time
○ e.g. police radio
 Full duplex
 Both directions at the same time
○ e.g. telephone

6. Types of Networks
 LAN (Local Area Network)
 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)
 Privately Owned (Main feature)
 Contains printers, servers and computers
 Systems are close to each other
 Limited to a building
 For bigger sizes (City, State etc.)
 Access issues : How to connect each one of them
because each of them are geographically distributed.
 A network provider sells time.

7.  WAN (Wide Area Network)
 Costly
 For more then 1000 of Km.
 Networks of Networks (LAN +LAN +…)
 Typically use public or leased lines
 The Internet is a WAN

8. Protocols :
 These are the rules and regulations that how
communication takes place.
 These are the building blocks of a Network.
 Each protocol object has two interfaces.
1. Service Interface: Defines operation on this Protocols
2. Peer to Peer interface: Defines messages exchanged with peer.

9. OSI Model

10. Working of each layers of OSI Model
 Physical Layer : How to Transmit Bits
 Data Link Layer : How to Transmit Frames
 Responsible for transmission of bits
 Always implemented through hardware
 Encompasses mechanical, electrical, and
functional interfaces
 Error Detection
 Responsible for error-free, reliable transmission of data,
Error correction, Access control.
 Line Discipline
• ENQ / ACK (for Peer to Peer)
• POLL / SELECT( for establishment of proper communication
in primary and secondary device)
 Flow Control
• STOP & WAIT
• SLIDING WINDOW

11.  Network Layer : How to route packets to the node
 Transport Layer : How to send packets to the
application
 Responsible for routing of messages through network
 Concerned with type of switching used (circuit v.
packet)
 Handles routing between networks, as well as through
packet-switching networks
 Concerned with reliable transfer of information
between applications
 Includes aspects like flow control and error
checking
 Breaks down message size
 Isolates messages from lower and upper layers

12.  Session Layer : Manage connections
 Presentation Layer : Encode/ Decode
message security
 Application Layer :
 Establishes logical connections between systems
 Terminates connection at end of session
 Manages log-ons, password exchange, log-offs
 Provides format and code conversion services
 Provides access to network for end-user
 User’s capabilities are determined by what
items are available on this layer

13. TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol)
OSI Model TCP/IP Hierarchy Protocols

Session Layer

Physical Layer

DataLink Layer

14.  Application Layer :
 The application layer is equivalent to the combined OSI
Session, Presentation and Application Layers.
 All the functions Handled by these 3 layers in OSI
model are handled by the Application layer of TCP/IP
model.
 This Layer contains all the higher Layer Protocols.
• FTP (File Transfer Protocol)- Basic file transfer between
Hosts ( computers)
• SMTP ( Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)-Used for Email.
• HTTP (Hyper text Transfer Protocol)- For web Browsing
 Data unit created at this layer is called Message.

15.  Transport Layer :
 This Layer is represented by 2 protocols TCP and UDP
1. TCP ( Transmission Control Protocol)
• TCP is reliable connection Oriented Protocol
• Allows Error Free Transmission
• At the receiving end TCP reassembles the message to
an output stream
• TCP also Handles Flow control.
2. UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
Datagram: A self contained message unit which
contains sufficient information to allow it to be routed from
the source to the destination
• UDP is simpler but used when Reliability and security
are less important the size and speed such as speech,
video.

16.  Network Layer :
 Also referred to as network Layer or internetwork Layer
 No error Checking
 Datagrams are discarded due to time Out Layers.
Comparison of OSI and TCP/IP models
 OSI model has 7 Layers while the TCP/IP has 5 Layers.
 Both have Network , Transport and application Layers
but the other Layers are different.
 OSI model supports both Connectionless and
Connection Oriented Communication.
 TCP/IP supports only Connectionless communication.

17. Network Topology
 Logical layout of wires and equipment.
 Choice affects
 Types of Topologies:
• BUS topology
• STAR topology
• RING topology
• MESH topology
• TREE topology
• Network performance
• Network size
• Network collision detection

18. BUS Topology
 Also called linear bus
 One wire connects all nodes
 Terminator ends the wires
 Advantages
 Easy to setup
 Small amount of wire
 Disadvantages
 Slow
 Easy to crash

19. STAR Topology
 All nodes connect to a hub
 Packets sent to hub
 Hub sends packet to destination
 Advantages
 Easy to setup
 One cable can not crash network
 Disadvantages
 One hub crashing downs entire
network
 Uses lots of cable
 Most common topology

20. RING Topology
 Nodes connected in a circle
 Tokens used to transmit data
 Nodes must wait for token to
send
 Advantages
 Time to send data is known
 No data collisions
 Disadvantages
 Slow
 Lots of cable

21. MESH Topology
 All computers connected together
 Internet is a mesh network
 Advantage
 Data will always be delivered
 Disadvantages
 Lots of cable
 Hard to setup

22. TREE Topology
 Hierarchal Model
 Advantages
 Scaleable
 Easy Implementation
 Easy Troubleshooting
