    TCP and UDP are transport layer protocols in the TCP/IP protocol suite. TCP provides reliable, ordered delivery of streams of bytes via connections with flow control and error correction. UDP provides fast but unreliable delivery of datagrams without connections or acknowledgments. Common applications using TCP include HTTP, FTP, and SMTP. Common applications using UDP include DNS, DHCP, and VoIP. IP version 6 addresses have 128 bits compared to 32 bits in IP version 4, allowing for a vastly larger number of addressable devices.

    TCP/IP Concepts Review


    TCP/IP Concepts Review
    TCP and UDP
    TCP UDP
    TCP is a connection-oriented protocol. UDP is a connectionless protocol.
    TCP is suited for applications that require UDP is suitable for applications that need
    high reliability, and transmission time is fast, efficient transmission, such as
    relatively less critical. games. UDP's stateless nature is also
    useful for servers that answer small
    queries from huge numbers of clients.

    TCP rearranges data packets in the UDP has no inherent order as all
    order specified. packets are independent of each
    other.
    TCP does Flow Control. TCP handles UDP does not have an option for

    Advantages of IPv6 over IPv4:


    1. IPv6 simplified the router’s task compared to IPv4.
    2. IPv6 is more compatible to mobile networks than IPv4.
    3. IPv6 allows for bigger payloads than what is allowed in IPv4.
    4. IPv6 is used by less than 1% of the networks, while IPv4 is
    still in use by the remaining 99%.
    Network Topology

    Draw the following network topologies and give an example where each type is used. Ensure that they
    are properly labelled.
    1. Bus
    2. Star
    3. Ring
    4. Mesh
    5. Fully-connected Mesh
    Describe in detail the following network types and where are they used?
    1. Packet-switch
    2. Circuit-switch
    3. Virtual circuit
    Review Questions
    This part of the question is with regard to TCP/IP.
    • Explain TCP.
    • Explain UDP.
    • Compare TCP and UDP in terms of their properties and operation.
    • Explain the following terms in relation to networking.
    • Datagram
    • Packet
    • Segment
    • Fragments
    • Socket
    • Stream
    • Byte stream
    • Bit stream
    • Traffic flow
    • What does it mean by TCP is stream-oriented and UDP is message oriented?
