Lecture # 01 - Agenda
1. Introduction to TCP / IP Protocol suite model
3
What Is TCP/IP?
1. The large collection of networking protocols
and services called TCP/IP denotes far more
than the combination of the two key protocols
that gives this collection its name.
2. These protocols deserve an initial introduction:
Transmission Control Protocol, or TCP,
handles reliable delivery for messages of
arbitrary size, and defines a robust delivery
mechanism for all kinds of data across a
network
4
The Origins and History of TCP/IP



In 1969, an obscure arm of the United States
Department of Defense (DoD), known as the
Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA),
funded an academic research project for a
special type of long-haul network, called a
packet-switched network
In a packet-switched network, individual
chunks of data (called packets) can take any
usable path between the sender and receiver
The network built as a result of this project is
known as the ARPANET
TCP/IP’s Design Goals

The design of the ARPANET and protocols
that evolved to support it were based on the
following government needs:
 A desire to withstand a potential nuclear
strike
 A desire to permit different kinds of
computer systems to easily communicate
with one another
 A need to interconnect systems across
long distances
Who “Owns” TCP/IP?

Given that its roots are everywhere, and that
its reach is unlimited, the ownership and
control of TCP/IP is puzzling

TCP/IP falls squarely into the public domain
because it’s been funded with public monies
since its inception
Meet the Standards groups that
Manage TCP/IP

The standards groups that are involved
with TCP/IP are as follows:
 Internet
Society (ISOC)
 Internet Architecture Board (IAB)
 Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
 Internet Research Task Force (IRTF)
 Internet Societal Task Force (ISTF)
 Internet Corporation for Assigned Names
and Numbers (ICANN)
TCP/IP Standards and RFCs




Within the collection of RFCs, older versions of
RFCs are sometimes (or often) replaced by
newer, more up-to-date versions
Each RFC is identified by a number, and “new
numbers” fall at present in the 3300s range
One special RFC is titled “Internet Official
Protocol Standards”
At this writing, the current version of that RFC
is numbered 2700
TCP/IP Standards and RFCs




RFC 2026 describes how an RFC is created, and
what processes it must go through to become an
official standard, adopted by the IETF
A potential standard RFC goes through three phases
on its way to becoming a standard
It starts as a Proposed Standard; moves up to a Draft
Standard; and, if formally adopted, becomes an
Internet Standard, or a Standard RFC
Eventually, such an RFC can also be designated as a
Retired Standard, or a Historic Standard, when
replaced by a newer RFC
TCP/IP Standards and RFCs


Best Current Practice (BCP) is another
important category for RFCs
A BCP does not define a protocol or technical
specifications; rather, a BCP defines a
philosophy, or a particular approach, to a
network design or implementation that is
recommended as tried and true, or that
enjoys certain desirable characteristics
worthy of consideration when building or
maintaining a TCP/IP network
