Lab Assignment 5

1. Simulation & Analysis of Transport Layer Protocol (TCP) and User

Datagram Protocol (UDP) using CISCO packet tracer.

Place a PT server, a switch and 4 PC’s as shown below

Make the necessary connections for the network devices

Assign the IP address for all the network devices

Add the dns server address to the PT server and edit the html code in HTTP service

Verification can be done in any PC’s web browser

Configure mail in PC0 and PC1 to verify the tcp protocol
Add these mails to the server

Verification can be done in PC

Verify the FTP client
Check the dir in PC3 and add test.txt file if not present and apply delete operation
 Therefore ,
 PC0 and PC1 will conclude the working of UDP protocol
 Server and PC0 will conclude the working of TCP protocol
 PC2 and PC3 will conclude the working of UDP protocol

Hence the working of TCP and UDP protocols are verified.

2. Describe TCP and UDP. Write at least 8 differences between TCP and UDP..

TCP
TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol. It is a transport layer
protocol that facilitates the transmission of packets from source to
destination. It is a connection- oriented protocol that means it establishes
the connection prior to the communication that occurs between the
computing devices in a network.
UDP
UDP is the simplest transport layer
communication protocol.
It contains a minimum amount of
communication
mechanisms. It is
considered an unreliable protocol,
and it is based on best-effort
delivery services. UDP provides no
acknowledgment
mechanism, which means
that the receiver does not send the acknowledgment for the received
packet, and the sender also does not wait for the acknowledgment for the
packet that it has sent.
