IP datagram format IP Fragmentation Reassembly network links have MTU (max.transfer size) - largest possible link-level frame. different link types, different MTUs large IP datagram divided (“fragmented”) within net one datagram becomes several datagrams “reassembled” only at final destination IP header bits used to identify, order related fragments IP Fragmentation and Reassembly ICMP: Internet Control Message Protocol used by hosts, routers, gateways to communication network-level information error reporting: unreachable host, network, port, protocol echo request/reply (used by ping) network-layer “above” IP: ICMP msgs carried in IP datagrams ICMP message: type, code plus first 8 bytes of IP datagram causing error Routing in the Internet The Global Internet consists of Autonomous Systems (AS) interconnected with each other: Stub AS: small corporation Multihomed AS: large corporation (no transit) Transit AS: provider Two-level routing: Intra-AS: administrator is responsible for choice Inter-AS: unique standard Internet AS Hierarchy Intra-AS Routing Also known as Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP) Most common IGPs: RIP: Routing Information Protocol OSPF: Open Shortest Path First IGRP: Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (Cisco propr.) RIP ( Routing Information Protocol) Distance vector algorithm Included in BSD-UNIX Distribution in 1982 Distance metric: # of hops (max = 15 hops) Can you guess why? Distance vectors: exchanged every 30 sec via Response Message (also called advertisement) Each advertisement: route to up to 25 destination nets RIP (Routing Information Protocol) RIP: Link Failure and Recovery If no advertisement heard after 180 sec -- neighbor/link declared dead routes via neighbor invalidated new advertisements sent to neighbors neighbors in turn send out new advertisements (if tables changed) link failure info quickly propagates to entire net poison reverse used to prevent ping-pong loops (infinite distance = 16 hops) RIP Table processing RIP rou
