Two Key Network-Layer Functions
 forwarding: move
packets from router’s
input to appropriate
router output
 routing: determine
route taken by
packets from source
to dest.

The IP protocol
The IPv4 (Internet Protocol) header.
Network Layer 4-10
IP protocol: header fields
 Version
 Keeps track of which version of the protocol
• The datagram belongs to (current = 4.0)
 IHL
 Since header is not constant, this field
• Tells how long the header is, in 32-bit words
 Total length: includes both header and data
 Max length = 65 Kbytes
 TTL: is a counter used to limit packet
lifetimes

Prevents packets from wandering aroundNetwork
forever

(cont’d)
 Protocol field
 Tells which transport process to give the
packet to
• TCP is one possibility and so are UDP and others
 Header checksum
 Verifies the header only,
• It must be recomputed at each hop
– Because at least one field always change (TTL field)
 The source address and destination
address

Indicate the destination network and host

 Strict source routing


IP Fragmentation & Reassembly
 network links have MTU
(max.transfer size) - largest
possible link-level frame.
 different link types,
different MTUs
 large IP datagram divided
(“fragmented”) within net
 one datagram becomes
several datagrams
 “reassembled” only at final
destination
 IP header bits used to
identify, order related
fragments
fragmentation:
in: one large datagram
out: 3 smaller datagrams
reassembly

IP Addresses
Network Layer 4-20
Special IP addresses
 The IP address 0.0.0.0
 Is
used by hosts when they are booting
 IP addresses with 0 as network number
Network Layer
 Refer to the current network
4-21
Class A, B, and C networks: default
masks without subnetting
 Routers use a default mask
 To define size of the network and host parts of
address
 Default mask
 is a 32 bit binary number written in dotteddecimal

defines the structure of an IP address
• Identifying the size of the network part of an IP
address
– Class A mask has a default mask of 255.0.0.0
– Class B default mask => 255.255.0.0
Network Layer
– Class C default mask => 255.255.255.0

Subnets
 Main objective

Allow networks to be split into several parts
(subnets)
• For internal use and still act like a single network to
outside
 Idea

Some bits are taken away from the host number
• To create a subnet number

A third part appears in the middle of the address
Network Layer 4-24
Subnets: example
 The main router uses a subnet mask
 Indicating the split between
• network + subnet and host

The subnet mask in this case
is 255.255.252.0
• alternative notation is /22 indicating a 22 bit long mask

Outside the network, subnetting is not visible
Network Layer
4-25
How IP packets are processed
at a router
 Without subnetting
 Each router has a routing table listing
• Some number of network IP addresses
– Telling how to get to distant networks
• Some number of local host IP addresses
– Telling how to get to local hosts
 With subnetting
 Router table is reduced furthermore
• By creating a three-level hierarchy (network, subnet, and
host)

A router on subnet k
• Knows how to get to all other subnets and to local hosts
• does not have to know details about hosts on other
subnets
Network Layer 4-26
Scaling the IP address for the
Internet
 In the early 1990s

It became apparent that Internet was growing
so fast
• That all IP addresses would be assigned by mid-1990s
– new organizations would be unable to connect to Internet
 Several solutions were developed
 That allowed the Internet to grow
• Without letting us run out of IP addresses
– Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR)
– Network Address Translation (NAT)
Network Layer 4-27
IP Addressing
 IP address: 32-bit
identifier for host,
router interface
 interface: connection
between host/router
and physical link

Subnets
Recipe
 To determine the
subnets, detach each
interface from its
host or router,
creating islands of
isolated networks.
Each isolated network
is called a subnet.
