Lecture 12 Overview. TELNET. TELNET is a protocol that provides general, bi-directional, eight-bit byte oriented communications Over TCP connection data and control over the same connection Many application protocols are built upon the TELNET protocol
E N D
TELNET • TELNET is a protocol that provides • general, • bi-directional, • eight-bit byte oriented communications • Over TCP connection • data and control over the same connection • Many application protocols are built upon the TELNET protocol • Used to test HTTP, FTP, SMTP, POP3, IRC, etc. CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : TELNET protocol
Network Virtual Terminal • intermediate representation of a generic terminal • provides a standard language for communication of terminal control functions Server Process NVT NVT TCP TCP CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : TELNET protocol
Control Functions • TELNET includes support for a series of control functions commonly supported by servers • This provides a uniform mechanism for communication of (the supported) control functions CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : TELNET protocol
Command Structure • Commands start with a special character called the Interpret as Command escape character • The IAC code is 255 • If a 255 is sent as data, it must be followed by another 255 • If IAC is found and the next byte is IAC • a single byte is presented to application/terminal • If IAC is followed by any other code • the TELNET layer interprets this as a command CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : TELNET protocol

Terminology • User Agent • end-user mail program • Message Transfer Agent • responsible for communicating with remote hosts and transmitting/receiving email • both a client and server • Mail Exchanger • host that takes care of email for a domain CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols
SMTP • Used to exchange mail messages between mail servers (Message Transfer Agents) MTA MTA MTA SMTP SMTP File System UA UA CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
SMTP Protocol • SMTP sender is the client • SMTP receiver is the server • Alternating dialogue: • client sends command and server responds with command status message • Order of the commands is important! • Status messages include • ASCII encoded numeric status code (like HTTP,FTP) and • text string CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
Data Format • ASCII only • must convert binary to an ASCII representation to send via email • What if we want to send a line containing only a period? • Sender prepends a period to any line staring with a period (in the message) • Receiver strips the leading period in any line that starts with a period and has more stuff CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
Message Progress TCP Connection Establishment TCP Connection Termination CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
354 Reply Codes • Contain a Lot of Information • Only the reply codes count • Other information in a reply is purely for humans The first digit indicates success, failure, or incomplete The third digit is the specific message for that category The second digit is the category of error message CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
SMTP Extensions (EHLO) • A mailer supporting extensions uses EHLO instead of HELO in the greeting $ telnet mail.unr.edu 25 Trying 134.197.1.112... 220 smtp.unr.edu ESMTP Postfix EHLO 250-smtp.unr.edu 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 30720000 250-VRFY 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DNS A mailer that supports extensions responds with a list of which ones it can do CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
Mail Headers • Email messages contain many headers • some headers are created by the UA • some are automatically added by the MTA • Every MTA adds (at least) a “Received:” header • Some of the headers are parsed by intermediate MTAs • but the message content is ignored and passed on transparently CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - SMTP
Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions • Defines extensions to support binary attachments of arbitrary format • Images, Audio, Video and multi-media messages • Text having unlimited line length or overall length • Multiple objects in a single message • Character sets other than ASCII • Multi-font messages • Requires more capable UAs to interpret messages CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - MIME

Pulling Emails • Offline (POP3 model) • Client connects to server and pulls all email down to client • Everything is stored on the client • Online (Original IMAP model) • Client connects to server for every transaction • Everything is stored on the server • Disconnected (Later IMAP model) • Client and server share storage burden • Server is always authoritative and client must synchronize to server CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols
POP – Post Office Protocol • Used to transfer mail from a mail server to a User Agent Mail Server POP UA File System CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - POP3
POP (version 3) • Similar to SMTP command/reply lockstep • Minimizes server resources • Used to retrieve mail for a single user • requires authentication • Commands and replies are ASCII lines • Replies start with “+OK” or “-ERR” • Replies may contain multiple lines • POP has no security • Except when used with SSL, TLS CPE 401/601 Lecture 12 : E-mail protocols - POP3

File Transfer Protocols • File Transfer Protocol (RFC 959) • Why FTP? • FTP’s connections • FTP in action • FTP commands/responses • Trivial File Transfer Protocol (RFC 1350) • TFTP and TFTP’s message formats • FTP and TFTP compared CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : File Transfer Protocols
Why do we need a FTP Service? • Purpose: To Transfer files between two computers • Goals of FTP Service • Promote sharing of files (programs and/or data) • Encourage indirect/implicit use of remote computers • Shield users from variations in file storage among hosts • Transfer data reliably and efficiently CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : File Transfer Protocols
Problems of File Transfer • At first, file transfer may seem simple • Heterogeneous systems use different: • Operating Systems • Character Sets • Naming Conventions • Directory Structures • File Structures and Formats • FTP need to address and resolve these problems CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : File Transfer Protocols
File Transfer Protocol • Exchange and manipulate files over TCP • Separate control and data connections between the client and server applications • RFC 959 includes information and details • parameters for commands • lists of reply status codes • protocol state diagrams • support for a variety of file structures • sample sessions CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP

Control and Data Connections • Control functions (commands) and reply codes are transferred over the control connection. • All data transfer takes place over the data connection. • The control connection must be “up” while data transfer takes place. CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP
Control Connection • The control connection is the “well known” service. • The control connection uses the TELNET protocol. • Commands and replies are all line oriented text (default is ASCII). CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP
* Persistent command and reply connection Non-persistent data connection Server is listening on port 21 for connection requests * Insulates users from “raw” FTP commands *Server uses port 20 for data connections * Routes “raw” FTP commands * Receives server’s replies FTP’s Connections client User Interface server User Protocol Interpreter Server Protocol Interpreter Control Connection 21 User Data Transfer Function Data Connection Server Data Transfer Function 20 CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP

Data Transfer Modes • STREAM: • file is transmitted as a stream of bytes • BLOCK: • file is transmitted as a series of blocks preceded by headers containing count and descriptor code • COMPRESSED: • uses a simple compression scheme on transmitted blocks CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP
FTP Replies • All replies are sent over control connection. • Replies are a single line containing • 3 digit status code (sent as 3 numeric chars). • text message. • The FTP spec. includes support for multiline text replies. CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP
FTP Reply Status Code • First digit of status code indicates type of reply: • ‘1’: Positive Preliminary Reply (got it, but wait). • ‘2’: Positive Completion Reply (success). • ‘3’: Positive Intermediate Reply (waiting for more information). • ‘4’: Transient Negative Completion (error - try again). • ‘5’: Permanent Negative Reply (error - can’t do). CPE 401/601 Lecture 13: FTP
FTP Reply Status Code • 2nd digit indicates function groupings. • ‘0’: Syntax (problem with command syntax). • ‘1’: Information (reply to help or status cmds). • ‘2’: Connections (problem with a connection). • ‘3’: Authentication (problem with login). • ‘4’: Unspecified. • ‘5’: File system (related to file system). • 3rd digit indicates specific problem within function group. CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP
Example FTP Responses • 120 Service will be ready shortly • 200 Command OK • 230 User login OK • 331 User name OK; password is needed • 421 Service not available • 530 User not logged in • 552 Requested action aborted; exceeded storage allocation CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : FTP
Trivial FTP (TFTP) • Simple and small: • 5 message formats • Runs on UDP • Designed to fit in ROM • Uses a “stop and wait” protocol • NO BUILT IN SECURITY FEATURES (login) • Used only to read and write files from/to a server • Cannot list directories • Useful for bootstrapping diskless systems • Workstations • X terminals CPE 401/601 Lecture 13 : TFTP
