What is a protocol, what is 7 Layer OSI Stack and how it fits into the Internet TCP/IP Stack
We discuss the structure of an IP Address, 32 bits, and how the old classfull A,B,C,D addresses were designed.
Class B networks can be subdivided into smaller subnets by borrowing bits from the host portion, using the 32-bit subnet mask.
Dhcp enables centralized automation of IP address assignment for laptops and mobile devices in enterprise networks, with servers sending DNS information to clients and clients using discover, offer, request, and ack messages.
This is a first in a series of beginner courses on TCP/IP Data Networking. This course covers - IP Data Networking with Subnetting, DHCP, NAT and ARP basics. The idea is to give a high level overview of these protocols, so that the student can then go out and read more material easily. Suitable for undergrad 2nd and 3rd year students learning TCP/IP Networking. The videos also give some examples of how packets traverse the routers, especially, in the case of NAT function in the boundary routers.
