TCP/IP Services
TCP/IP Utilities
1
Automated TCP/IP Configuration
Solutions



Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP)
Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
2
RARP




Uses the same message format as Address
Resolution Protocol (ARP)
Designed for diskless workstations
Supplies an Internet Protocol (IP) address
only
No longer used
3
RARP Communications
4
BOOTP





Supplies an IP address and other
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) parameters
Can supply an executable boot file using
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
Requires you to manually configure
parameters for each client
Cannot allocate IP addresses automatically
Cannot prevent IP address duplication
5
DHCP





Addresses the shortcomings of RARP and
BOOTP
Dynamically allocates IP addresses from a
pool
Reclaims unused addresses
Prevents IP address duplication
Supplies all TCP/IP parameters
6
DHCP Components



Client
Server
Protocol
7
DHCP Address Allocation Types



Manual allocation
Automatic allocation
Dynamic allocation
8
Manual Allocation


The administrator assigns a permanent IP
address to the client.
Manual allocation is used for computers that
require permanent IP address assignments.
9
Automatic Allocation



The DHCP server assigns the client a
permanent IP address chosen from a pool.
Automatic allocation is used on networks
where computers are rarely moved to other
subnets.
This minimizes DHCP traffic.
10
Dynamic Allocation




The DHCP server leases to the client an IP
address chosen from a pool.
The client must periodically renew the lease
address.
Unrenewed lease addresses are returned to
the pool.
Dynamic allocation allows you to add,
remove, and relocate computers.
11
The DHCP Message Format
12
The DHCP Options Field Format
13
DHCP Message Types








1—DHCPDISCOVER
2—DHCPOFFER
3—DHCPREQUEST
4—DHCPDECLINE
5—DHCPACK
6—DHCPNAK
7—DHCPRELEASE
8—DHCPINFORM
14
The DHCP Address Assignment
Process
15
The IP Address Leasing Process

The address assignment process is the same for all of
the allocation methods.




Clients using manual or automatic allocation receive no
further communication after the address assignment.
Clients using dynamic allocation lease IP addresses for
a time interval specified by the server.
The client must renew the lease on a regular basis to
continue using it.
DHCP address leases are typically measured in days.


If addresses are in short supply, a shorter lease
interval is warranted.
If computers are rarely moved to other subnets, longer
lease intervals reduce the DHCP traffic.
16
The DHCP Lease Renewal Process
17
The HOSTS File



A HOSTS file is a lookup table containing a
list of host names and their equivalent IP
addresses.
Each computer has its own HOSTS file.
As the Internet grew, the HOSTS file became
impractical, and the Domain Name System
(DNS) eventually replaced it.
18
DNS Characteristics


Defined in Request for Comments (RFC) 1034
and RFC 1035
DNS defines


A hierarchical namespace for computer networks
A service for resolving names into IP addresses
19
The DNS Namespace
20
The DNS Name Resolution Process
21
DNS Resource Record Types
Record Type
Function
Start of Authority
(SOA)
Indicates that the name server is the authoritative source
for the domain
Name Server (NS)
Identifies the DNS servers in the domain
Address (A)
Contains a name-to-address mapping for a computer in the
domain
Canonical Name
(CNAME)
Creates an alternative (or alias) name for a computer
already represented by an Address record
Pointer (PTR)
Contains an address-to-name mapping in in-addr.arpa for a
computer in the domain
Mail Exchange
(MX)
Identifies a computer that is responsible for processing
e-mail traffic addressed to the domain
22
WINS Characteristics




Is the acronym for Windows Internet Name
Service
Is a Network Basic Input/Output System
(NetBIOS) name server
Resolves NetBIOS names into IP addresses
Used only by Microsoft Windows computers
23

implementation

Traceroute Characteristics





Variant of the Ping program
Displays a list of the routers on the path that packets
take to a destination
Uses Echo Request and Echo Reply messages, as
Ping does
Modifies the Time To Live value in each successive
Echo Request message
Can be used to troubleshoot network
communications problems by specifying the location
of the difficulty
