The Client Side of Networking 10 Chapter Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite File and Print Clients on Private Networks Connecting to the Internet Internet Clients Troubleshooting Common Network Client Problems
Learning Objectives • Apply basic TCP/IP knowledge and skills • Use a file and print client to connect to shares • List methods for connecting to the Internet • Identify and configure common Internet clients • Troubleshoot common client connection problems
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • TCP/IP is a suite of protocols that work together to allow similar and dissimilar systems to communicate • The two core protocols are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP) • TCP/IP protocol is automatically installed in Windows when a network card is present
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) • Responsible for the accurate delivery of messages • Verifies and resends pieces that fail to reach the destination • TCP has several sub-protocols
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) • Packages communications in chunks, called packets • Allows a computer to be identified by a logical address called an IP address • Each packet is given a header that contains information including the source address (local host address) and the destination address • Special routing protocols can use a destination IP address to choose the best route for a packet to take
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP has several sub-protocols • IP addresses are very important • A computer cannot communicate on a TCP/IP network without a valid IP address
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Addressing Fundamentals • An IP address is assigned to a network adapter • When a modem and LAN adapter are present, each connects a computer to a different network • A desktop computer usually has only a single network device connecting it to a specific network, so that is the only address by which the computer is known on that network
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Addressing Fundamentals (continued) • An IP address has four parts in dotted decimal format • Example: 192.168.100.48 • Four sets of base-10 numbers (decimal) • Each number is within 0 to 255 • Rules determine how these numbers are used
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Addressing Fundamentals (continued) • 4.3 billion possible IP addresses • Allocation methods have reduced the usable number • Current version IP Protocol 4 (IPv4)
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • Which addresses can be used? • Public Addresses • Assigned to hosts on the Internet • A host is any computer or device that has an IP address • Source address must be unique on the entire Internet • Destination address must be unique on the entire Internet
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • Which addresses can be used? (continued) • Public Addresses (continued) • Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) allocates numbers to Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) • RIRs allocate numbers to ISPs • ISPs allocate numbers to customers
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • Which addresses can be used? (continued) • Private Addresses • They are not to be used on the Internet • Used in private IP networks • No permissions required • An address from one of three ranges of IP addresses • 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255 • 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255 • 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • Which addresses can be used? (continued) • Private Addresses (continued) • To connect to the Internet, each data packet with a private source address must be intercepted, repackaged, and given a public IP address as its source address before being sent out onto the Internet • If there is a response, each packet will be repackaged and returned to the private address • An Internet router substitutes (or translates) a private IP address to a unique Internet IP address
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • How Does a Host Get an IP Address? • Static Address Assignment • Manually configured for a host • In most organizations, static IP addressing is done only on servers, network printers, and network devices • Network administrator will provide on a LAN • ISP will provide for an Internet connection (if needed) • Enter in TCP/IP properties for the network connection
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • How Does a Host Get an IP Address? (continued) • Automatic Address Assignment (DHCP and APIPA) • Methods by which a computer can be assigned an IP address, and all the additional configuration settings, automatically. • Most organizations do Automatic IP addressing via Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server • If no DHCP server responds, a DHCP client may self-assign via Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA)
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings • Subnet Mask • As critical as the address itself • Divides IP address into two parts: Host ID and Net ID • Example: • IP address 192.168.100.48 • Mask of 255.255.255.0 • Host ID = 48 • Net ID = 192.168.100
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings (continued) • How masking works in binary math • IP address of 192.168.100.2 • In binary = 11000000.10101000.01100100.00000010 • Mask of 255.255.255.0 • In binary = 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 • Masking results in • Net ID of 192.168.100 • Host ID of 2
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings(continued) • Default Gateway • IP address of the router on the LAN • Net ID of the default gateway address should be identical to that of the IP address • Router directs traffic beyond the local network • Without this, traffic will not travel beyond local network • Example: router connects network 192.168.100 to other networks • Any packet for other networks is sent to default gateway
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings • DNS Servers • Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed online database • Names mapped to IP addresses • Thousands of name servers maintain this distributed database • DNS client queries a DNS server to determine the IP address of a web site • A query of "mcgraw-hill.com" returns 198.45.18.151
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings (continued) • DNS Servers (continued) • Two DNS Server addresses in Windows IP configuration • Preferred DNS server is contacted with queries • Alternate DNS server is contacted ONLY after no response from Preferred server
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings (continued) • Advanced TCP/IP Settings • DNS • Add more than two DNS servers • Change the order in which the DNS servers are used • Allows the DNS client to request a name search for a domain name when an incomplete name is entered • WINS • Enter WINS servers • WINS resolves NetBIOS names to IP addresses
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings (continued) • Advanced TCP/IP Settings (continued) • WINS • NetBIOS over TCP/IP automatically installed with TCP/IP • NetBIOS used in Microsoft workgroups, NT domains, and Active Directory domains with a mixture of new and old.
Understanding the TCP/IP Protocol Suite • Internet Protocol (IP) (continued) • IP Configuration Settings (continued) • Viewing an IP Configuration with IPCONFIG • A command line command • Displays the IP configuration of network interfaces • Displays information on static or DHCP clients • Available in all versions of Windows but Windows 95 • In Windows 95 use WINIPCFG • IPCONFIG /all displays all IP configurations for all network interfaces
