  1. CS 313 Introduction to Computer Networking & Telecommunication Chapter 6 Transport Layer Chi-Cheng Lin, Winona State University

  2. Topics • Transport Service • Elements of Transport Protocols

  3. Transport Service • Services provided to the upper layers • Goal • Provide efficient, reliable, and cost-effective services to its users (application/session layer processes) • Transport entity • Hardware/software within transport layer to do the work

  4. Logical Relationship The network, transport, and application layers

  5. Transport Services • Connection-oriented • E.g., TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) in TCP/IP • Connectionless • E.g., UDP (User Datagram Protocol) in TCP/IP • Why another layer between network and application/session layers?

  6. Transport Service Primitives The primitives for a simple transport service

  7. Transport Service Primitives • TPDU • Transport protocol data unit • Message transmitted between transport entities Nesting of TPDUs, packets, and frames.

  8. Transport Service Primitives • Client-server example Client process Server process CONNECT LISTEN ACCEPT SEND RECEIVE RECEIVE SEND : : DISCONNECT DISCONNECT

  9. Elements of Transport Protocols • Addressing • Connect • Disconnect • Flow control and buffering ------------------------------ • Multiplexing • Crash recovery

  10. Elements of Transport Protocols • Transport protocol • Used to implement transport service • Resembles data link protocol • Error control, sequencing, flow control, etc. • BUT, their environments are different! Environment of data link layer Environment of transport layer

  11. Elements of Transport Protocols • Differences from data link protocol • Explicit addressing of destination • More complicated initial connection establishment • Storage capacity in subnet • Packet might be "hiding" in subnet • Large and dynamically varying number of connections • buffering and flow control needed in both layers, but different approaches required

  12. Addressing • Which remote application process to connect to • Transport address • Which process can listen for connection • TSAP • Transport service access point • Internet: Port • Usually multiple TSAP supported by transport entity • NSAP • Network service access point • Internet: IP address • One or more NSAP (e.g., host w/ more than one connections, router, etc.)

  13. Addressing

  14. Establishing a Connection • Problem: delayed duplicates • Congestion, timeout, retransmission, packet hidden in subnet • Solution • Ensure no packet lives longer than some known time • Lifetime control • Restricted subnet design • Putting a hop counter in each packet • Timestamping each packet

  15. Connection Establishment Three protocol scenarios for establishing a connection using a three-way handshake. CR denotes CONNECTION REQUEST. Normal operation.

  16. Connection Establishment Three protocol scenarios for establishing a connection using a three-way handshake. CR denotes CONNECTION REQUEST. Old duplicate CONNECTION REQUEST appearing out of nowhere.

  17. Connection Establishment Three protocol scenarios for establishing a connection using a three-way handshake. CR denotes CONNECTION REQUEST. Duplicate CONNECTION REQUEST and duplicate ACK

  18. Connection Release Abrupt disconnection with loss of data

  19. Analogy - Two-Army Problem • Unreliable channel • Three-way, four-way, … , N-way handshake  NONE OF THEM WORKS

  20. Releasing a Connection • Three-way handshake + timers • Fails when all DRs from source lost  Half-open connection • Solution: • If no TPDUs have arrived for a certain amount of time disconnect • Timer needed • Dummy TPDU might be needed to keep a connection alive

  21. Connection Release Four protocol scenarios for releasing a connection. (a) Normal case of three-way handshake

  22. Connection Release Four protocol scenarios for releasing a connection. (b) Final ACK lost.

  23. Connection Release Four protocol scenarios for releasing a connection. (c) Response lost

  24. Connection Release Four protocol scenarios for releasing a connection. (d) Response lost and subsequent DRs lost.

  25. Flow Control • Flow control • Similar to data link layer • Sliding windows (or some other scheme) needed • Difference • Host: numerous connections Router: a few lines  different buffering strategies
