The document discusses network application protocols and provides examples of common network applications. It describes the client-server and peer-to-peer architectures for network applications. Applications use either TCP or UDP at the transport layer, depending on their requirements for reliability, throughput, and timing. TCP provides reliable data transfer while UDP is simpler but does not guarantee delivery. Well-known application layer protocols are presented along with the transport protocols typically used to support them.

Creating a network app write programs that run on (different) end systems communicate over network e.g., web server software communicates with browser software No need to write software for network-core devices network-core devices do not run user applications applications on end systems allows for rapid app development, propagation application transport network data link physical application transport network data link physical application transport network data link physical Application 2-5

Hybrid of client-server and P2P Skype voice-over-IP P2P application centralized server: finding address of remote party: client-client connection: direct (not through server) Instant messaging chatting between two users is P2P centralized service: client presence detection/location user registers its IP address with central server when it comes online user contacts central server to find IP addresses of buddies Application 2-10
- 10. Processes communicating process: program running within a host. within same host, two processes communicate using inter-process communication (defined by OS). processes in different hosts communicate by exchanging messages client process: process that initiates communication server process: process that waits to be contacted aside: applications with P2P architectures have client processes & server processes Application 2-11
- 11. Sockets process sends/receives messages to/from its socket socket analogous to door sending process shoves message out door sending process relies on transport infrastructure on other side of door which brings message to socket at receiving process process TCP with buffers, variables socket host or server process TCP with buffers, variables socket host or server Internet controlled by OS controlled by app developer API: (1) choice of transport protocol; (2) ability to fix a few parameters (lots more on this later) Application 2-12

- 13. Addressing processes to receive messages, process must have identifier host device has unique 32-bit IP address Q: does IP address of host on which process runs suffice for identifying the process? A: No, many processes can be running on same host identifier includes both IP address and port numbers associated with process on host. example port numbers: HTTP server: 80 Mail server: 25 to send HTTP message to gaia.cs.umass.edu web server: IP address: 128.119.245.12 Port number: 80 more shortly Application 2-14
- 14. App-layer protocol defines types of messages exchanged, e.g., request, response message syntax: what fields in messages & how fields are delineated message semantics meaning of information in fields rules for when and how processes send & respond to messages public-domain protocols: defined in RFCs allows for interoperability e.g., HTTP, SMTP proprietary protocols: e.g., Skype Application 2-15
- 15. What transport service does an app need? Data loss some apps (e.g., audio) can tolerate some loss other apps (e.g., file transfer, telnet) require 100% reliable data transfer Timing some apps (e.g., Internet telephony, interactive games) require low delay to be effective Throughput some apps (e.g., multimedia) require minimum amount of throughput to be effective other apps (elastic apps) make use of whatever throughput they get Security encryption, data integrity, Application 2-16
- 16. Transport service requirements of common apps Application file transfer e-mail Web documents real-time audio/video stored audio/video interactive games instant messaging Data loss no loss no loss no loss loss-tolerant loss-tolerant loss-tolerant no loss Throughput elastic elastic elastic audio: 5kbps-1Mbps video:10kbps-5Mbps same as above few kbps up elastic Time Sensitive no no no yes, 100s msec yes, few secs yes, 100s msec yes and no Application 2-17
- 17. Internet transport protocols services TCP service: connection-oriented: setup required between client and server processes reliable transport between sending and receiving process flow control: sender wont overwhelm receiver congestion control: throttle sender when network overloaded does not provide: timing, minimum throughput guarantees, security UDP service: unreliable data transfer between sending and receiving process does not provide: connection setup, reliability, flow control, congestion control, timing, throughput guarantee, or security Q: why bother? Why is there a UDP? Application 2-18
