Summary - Part 1 - Objectives • The purpose of this basic IP technology training is to explain video over an IP network. This training describes how video can be used on a network using IP protocol and enables individuals to understand how the IP network can respond to today’s increasing need of sharing video at any time and from anywhere. • “What is it?” As a first step, three main issues tackled in this training are IP protocol, networks, and video over IP. The training consists of non-exhaustive information aimed at demystifying the use of video over IP network. • “How to run it?” As a second step, you may refer to the training on Sony IP monitoring solutions to understand how to run your application over a network.
Summary - Part 1 - • Discovering IP technology • What is the IP protocol? • How was IP created and developed? • How does IP work ?
The TCP/IP Protocol • What is a protocol? • In computer terms, a protocol is a description of the rules that computers on a network follow in order to communicate with each other. • The protocol sets communications rules.
The TCP/IP Protocol • What is a transport? • In computer terms, a transport is the way the information (data, voice, audio) is exchanged between computers in a network.
The IP Protocol • What is TCP/IP? • TCP/IP stands for "Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol". • TCP/IP is often called the protocol of open systems which means users can perform network tasks (email, web surfing, file transfer, etc.) regardless of their computer hardware. • TCP/IP is a transport for moving information AND a protocol with rules on how to exchange this information.
History of IP from 1970 to 1990 • Mid 70's:First form of IP was developed by Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA), a US government organization. • Late 70's:With the involvement of many government and university research groups, TCP/IP started to take its latest form. • Early 80's: Many improvements were made in the usage of TCP/IP and the establishment of Global Internet, an organization that used TCP/IP protocols with the ARPANET as the backbone. • Mid 80's:With funding from the National Science Foundation, NSFNET was established as a backbone to TCP/IP. • Late 80's to early 90's: The internet experienced major growth - first major corporations, then medium-sized and small-sized companies began using TCP/IP for their private internets.
What Were the Reasons for These Developments? • There was a huge demand for existing computer resources to network nationwide. • The demands for file transfer, remote login and e-mail increased. • The desire for data exchange rose worldwide.
Development of Applications Based on IP Two application examples based on IP technology are : 1 - Remote monitoring This includes the monitoring of warehouses, production lines and other facilities. Other monitoring applications include using the images for quality control checks and other automated industrial processes. 2 - Voice over IP (VoIP ) Another application example for IP is Voice over IP (VoIP ). This is the ability to make telephone calls and send faxes over IP-based data networks with service quality and superior cost.
Internet Growth WEB SITES By January 2001 the number of internet users reached nearly 30,000,000
Internet Organizations Huge developments in TCP / IP resulted in the establishment of organizations that are specialized in the Internet. Some of these are: • Internet Architecture Board (IAB) Creates and sets standards for TCP/IP protocols and the Internet. • Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) • Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) • Internet Network Information Center (INTERNIC) Aimed at maintaining and distributing information about TCP/IP and the Internet. Also provides network addresses to organizations when they join the Internet. • Request for Comments (RFC’s) Provides on-line technical reports.

What is An IP Address? • An IP address is a string of numbers separated by dots, which identifies every device or ‘host‘ (computer, IP video server, IP camera, printer,etc.) on a TCP/IP network. • Each device or ‘host‘ connected to a TCP/IP network has a unique IP address. • When you first connect to the internet, your provider gives you an IP address which is unique.
What is an IP address? • In IP version 4, the IP address is a 32-bit number. • This number is divided into 2 parts: • The network number (which identifies a unique network) • A host (which identifies a device connected to that network). • All devices or "hosts" connected to the same TCP/IP network must have the same network number AND a different (unique) host number. • The IP address is what allows every device over a TCP/IP network to communicate with each other. Note: For more details, see the Advanced IP Technology Training section.
What is An IP Address? • An IP (v4) address follows this structure: • Field1. Field2. Field3. Field4 • Each field is an 8-bit number • This means a number ranging from 0 to 255 • Each field has a meaning that can be: • Network number or Host number • The meaning of these fields depends on the network class.
What are IP Classes? • The Internet groups their members (IP addresses) into 3 main classes: Class A NNNNNNNN HHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH Class B NNNNNNNN NNNNNNNN HHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH Class C NNNNNNNN NNNNNNNN NNNNNNNNHHHHHHHH Where: - The Net ID : It is the Network address - The Host ID : Tt is the host address 1 field = 8 bits 3 fields = 24 bits 2 fields = 16 bits 2 fields = 16 bits 3 fields = 24 bits 1 field = 8 bits
What are IP Classes? Class A : The first field ranges from 0 to 127 0 to 127 netID hostID • This creates IP addresses ranging from 0.h.h.h to 126.h.h.h or… • 127 networks of 16,777,216 hosts • So, there can only be 127 Class A networks on the Internet. • Only a few very large organizations need a Class A IP address.
What are IP Classes? Class B : The first field ranges from 128 to 192 128 to 192 netID hostID • This creates IP addresses ranging from 128.0.h.h to 192.255.h.h or… • 16,384 networks of 65,536 hosts • So, there are 16,384 Class B networks on the Internet. • A class B IP address is the size needed by large companies, universities, etc.
What are IP Classes? Class C: The first field ranges from 193 to 223 193 to 223 netID hostID • This creates IP addresses ranging from 193.0.0.h to 223.255.255.h or… • 2,097,152 networks of 254 hosts • So, there are 2,097,152 Class C networks on the Internet. • A class C IP address is what most of the networks connected to the internet have.
