Definition • also called IP Telephony, Internet telephony, Broadband telephony, Broadband Phone and Voice over Broadband • the routing of voice conversations over the Internet or through any other IP-based network Cisco IP Phone 7941G 2: Application Layer
Big Picture • Modes of operation: • PC to PC • PC to phone • Phone to PC • Phone to Phone • Traffic go through Packet Switched Network instead of Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 2: Application Layer
Challenges • Quality of Service (QoS) • Internet provides best of service • No guarantee for latency, jitter… • Need Internet connection • Home broadband is not reliable • Power issue • VOIP phone, Cable Modem/DSL, Computer • Primary reason for not using VOIP for emergency calls • Second reason is location identification is hard for VOIP 2: Application Layer
Challenges • Security • Most unencrypted • VOIP spam challenges • Integration into global telephone number system • Emergency call availability & functionality • Power, Internet connection • Call routing, location service 2: Application Layer
QoS • Deal with Jitter • Smoothed by playback buffer • Will cause more delay in playback • Too much delayed packets will be discard (dropped) • Bandwidth • 64 kbps or less • Depends on codec and use of silence suppression 2: Application Layer

Socket programming Goal: learn how to build client/server application that communicate using sockets Socket API • introduced in BSD4.1 UNIX, 1981 • explicitly created, used, released by apps • client/server paradigm • two types of transport service via socket API: • unreliable datagram (UDP) • reliable, byte stream-oriented (TCP) 2: Application Layer

Client must contact server server process must first be running server must have created socket (door) that accepts client’s contact Client contacts server by: creating client-local TCP socket specifying IP address, port number of server process When client creates socket: client TCP establishes connection to server TCP When contacted by client, server TCP creates new socket for server process to communicate with client allows server to talk with multiple clients source port numbers used to distinguish clients (more in Chap 3) TCP provides reliable, in-order transfer of bytes (“pipe”) between client and server application viewpoint Socket programming with TCP 2: Application Layer
Many Versions of Socket APIs • Unix socket (berkeley socket) • Winsock • MacTCP • …. • We introduce Unix socket API here • Can program under SUN OS, Linux, etc • A good tutorial on socket programming: • http://beej.us/guide/bgnet/ 2: Application Layer

What is a Socket? int sockfd; /* socket descriptor */ if ((sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)) < 0) } perror(“socket”); exit(1); } • socket returns an integer (socket descriptor) • sockfd < 0 indicates that an error occurred • socket descriptors are similar to file descriptors • FILE *fid; fid=fopen(“test.txt”, “rt”); • AF_INET: associates a socket with the Internet protocol family • SOCK_STREAM: selects the TCP protocol • SOCK_DGRAM: selects the UDP protocol 2: Application Layer
Socket Structure (Client) AF_INET struct sockaddr_in { short int sin_family; // Address family unsigned short int sin_port; // Port number struct in_addrsin_addr; // Internet address unsigned char sin_zero[8]; // all zero }; // Internet address (Network Byte Order) // (a structure for historical reasons) struct in_addr { unsigned long s_addr; // that's a 32-bit long, or 4 bytes }; IP: 1A.2D.3C.4B 101 103 100 102 … … 4B Big-Endian (Network Byte Order) 1A 3C 2D 2: Application Layer
Bind (Client) int sockfd; struct sockaddr_in local_addr; local_addr.sin_family = AF_INET; local_addr.sin_port = 0; // random assign a port local_addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY; // use my IP address memset(&(local_addr.sin_zero), '\0', 8); // zero the rest of the struct sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); // create an empty socket bind(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&local_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr)); Local host info 2: Application Layer

Partial Send() and recv() Due to multiple packets in transmission #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> int sendall(int sockfd, char *buf, int *len) { int total = 0; // how many bytes we've sent int bytesleft = *len; // how many we have left to send int n; while(total < *len) { n = send(sockfd, buf+total, bytesleft, 0); if (n == -1) { break; } total += n; bytesleft -= n; } *len = total; // return number actually sent here return n==-1?-1:0; // return -1 on failure, 0 on success } 2: Application Layer
Socket Programming in Server • No need to connect() a remote host • Need to listen() on specified port • Accept() a connection request • Generate a new socket for one connection • Support multiple connections int sockfd, new_fd; struct sockaddr_in local_addr, remote_addr; // assign local_addr (remember to use hton() to assign server port!) socket(…); // create empty socket descriptor bind(…); //fill in local address and assigned port to the socket descriptor listen(sockfd, backLog); // backLog is the max no. of connections in queue new_fd = accept(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&remote_addr, &sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) New socket discriptor Following commun. through this 2: Application Layer
Socket Programming in Server: fork() for multi-connection service • while(1) { // main accept() loop • sin_size = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in); • new_fd = accept(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&remote_addr, &sin_size); • printf("server: got connection from %s\n", inet_ntoa(remote_addr.sin_addr)); • if (!fork()) { // this is the child process (fork() returns 0 in child process) • close(sockfd); // child doesn't need the listener • send(new_fd, "Hello, world!\n", 14, 0); ……… • close(new_fd); exit(0); • } • close(new_fd); // parent doesn't need this • …………. • } parent child parent 2: Application Layer
Fork() • Tuotrial on fork(): http://www.erlenstar.demon.co.uk/unix/faq_2.html • System call fork() is used to create child process. It returns a process ID. After a new child process is created, both processes will execute the next instruction following the fork() system call. • On success: • PID of the child process is returned in the parent's thread of execution • 0 is returned in the child's thread of execution 2: Application Layer

UDP: no “connection” between client and server no handshaking sender explicitly attaches IP address and port of destination to each packet server must extract IP address, port of sender from received packet UDP: transmitted data may be received out of order, or lost UDP provides unreliable transfer of groups of bytes (“datagrams”) between client and server application viewpoint Socket programming with UDP 2: Application Layer
UDP Socket Programming • sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0) • No connect(), accept() • Send() sendto(), recv() recvfrom() • Sendto() includes target address/port SOCK_STREAM (tcp) 2: Application Layer
