OBJECTIVE:
To learn various network architectures and protocols and the functions of different layers in line with IEEE standards.
Building a network – Requirements – Network Architecture – OSI – Internet – Direct Link Networks LAN Technology – LAN Architecture – BUS/Tree – Ring – Star – Ethernet – Token Rings – Wireless Networks
Error Detection and Correction – VRC – LRC - CRC- Checksum – Hamming Distance for Error Correction – simulator development to capture various packets flowing in the Data Link Layer
Switching - Packet Switching – Switching and Forwarding – Bridges and LAN switches – Internetworking – Simple Internetworking – Routing - Selective routing protocol specification
Reliable Byte Stream (TCP) – Simple Demultiplexer (UDP) – TCP Congestion Control – Congestion Avoidance Mechanisms – Streaming Protocol
Domain Name Service (DNS) – Email - SMTP – MIME – HTTP – SNMP-TELNET-FTP
