Network Communications
To put it plainly, Network Protocol It is a bridge for communication and exchange between networks, only with the same network protocol computer To communicate and exchange information. This is just like all kinds of languages used in interpersonal communication. Only using the same language can we communicate normally and smoothly. From a professional perspective, Network Protocol yes computer The agreement that must be followed when realizing communication in the network, that is communication protocol Mainly right information transmission Rate and transmission of code , code structure, transmission control step , error control, etc standard

Protocol Selection

Network Communications
Faced with numerous Network Protocol , we may have no choice. But if you know in advance Network Protocol The main purpose of the can be targeted choice. Here are some commonly used Network Protocol
NetBEUI (NetBIOS Enhanced UserInterface) Network Basic Input/Output System Extension User interface
NetBEUI protocol It was proposed by IBM in 1985. NetBEUI is mainly for 20 to 200 workstations Small LAN Designed for NetBEUI, LanMan, Windows For WorkgroUPS and Windows NT. NetBEUI is a compact and fast protocol, but since NetBEUI does not route Capability, that is, it is not possible to access Router To another LAN, it can no longer adapt to a larger network. if necessary route To other LAN, you must install TCP/IP or IPX/SPX agreement.
IPX/SPX (Internet Packet Exchange/Sequential PacketExchange)
It is proposed by Novell for customers/ The server Connected Network Protocol use IPX/SPX protocol Capable of running those that usually need NetBEUI support program , which can be crossed through the IPX/SPX protocol Router Access other networks.
HDLC High Level Data Link Control data link agreement
It is a set of Network node A protocol for transferring data between. In HDLC, data is sent through the network in units (called frames), and received by the receiver. HDLC protocol Also manage data stream And data transmission interval. HDLC is data link layer One of the most widely used protocols in. As an ISO standard, HDLC is based on IBM's SDLC protocol, which is widely used in IBM's mainframe environment. In HDLC, SDLC is called pass response pattern (NRM)。 In normal response pattern In, the base station (usually a mainframe) sends data to a local or remote secondary station. Different types of HDLC are used 10. 25 Protocol 's network and Frame relay Network, this protocol can be used in the LAN or WAN Whether the network is public or private.
HTTP1.1 (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Vertion 1.1) Hyper Text Transfer Protocol -Version 1.1
It is a delivery protocol used to deliver hypertext on the Internet. It is an HTTP application protocol running on the TCP/IP protocol family. It can make browser More efficient network transmission Decrease. whatever The server In addition to including HTML file In addition, there is an HTTP Resident program , used to respond to user requests. Your browser It is an HTTP client The server Send a request when a start file is entered or clicked in the browser Hyperlink The browser sends the HTTP Request , the request is sent to the URL specified by the IP address. Resident program After receiving the request, send back the required file after necessary operations.
HTTPS(Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol) Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol
Network Communications
It is developed by Netscape and built into its browser It is used to compress and decompress data and return the results sent back by network upload. HTTPS actually applies Netscape's complete socket Layer (SSL) as HTTP application layer Sublayer of. (HTTPS uses port 443 instead of port 80 to communicate with TCP/IP as HTTP does.) SSL uses 40 bit keywords as RC4 streams encryption algorithm , which is suitable for the encryption of business information. X.509 is supported for HTTPS and SSL Digital authentication If necessary, the user can confirm who the sender is.
ICMP(Internet Control Message Protocol) Internet Control Information Protocol
It is a host and gateway Message control and error between presentation agreement. ICMP usage IP datagram , but messages are Software Processing, for application program The user is invisible. In a system called Catenet, the IP protocol is used as host To host Datagram service Network connection device be called gateway these ones here gateway Information for control is exchanged between each other through the Gateway to Gateway Protocol (GGP). Usually, maintenance or purpose host Will communicate with the source host, for example presentation Error during datagram. ICMP is used for this purpose. It uses IP as the underlying support, as if it is a high-level protocol, but actually it is part of IP and must be implemented by other IP modules. ICMP messages are sent in the following cases: when datagrams cannot reach the destination, when gateway Has been lost cache Function, when the gateway can boot host Send on shorter routes. IP is not designed to be absolutely reliable. The purpose of this protocol is to return control information in case of network problems, not to make the IP protocol absolutely reliable. It does not guarantee that datagrams or control information can be returned. Some datagrams will still have no presentation Is lost. [1]

Common protocols

Different workstations in the network, The server The data can be transferred between, which is due to the existence of the protocol. With the development of network, different developers have developed different communication methods. In order to make communication successful and reliable, all host All must use the same language, without dialects. Therefore, strict standard definitions must be developed host Every bit in every word in every packet between. These standards come from the efforts of many organizations to agree on a common communication mode, that is, protocol. These make communication easier. Many protocols have been developed, but only a few have been retained. There are many reasons for the obsolescence of those protocols - poor design, poor implementation or lack of support. Those protocols that remain have experienced the test of time and become effective communication methods.
NETBEUI
NETBEUI is developed for IBM Routing Protocol , used to carry NETBIOS communication. NETBEUI lacks routing and network layers addressing Function is both its greatest advantage and its biggest shortcoming Because it doesn't need additional network address And the head and tail of the network layer, so it is fast and effective and suitable for only a single network or the entire environment bridging Little up Working Group Environmental Science.
Network Communications
Because it is not supported route , so NETBEUI will never become the main protocol for enterprise networks. NETBEUI frame
The address of is data link layer Media Access Control (MAC) address, which identifies network card But the network is not identified. route
Recliner network address take Frame forwarding To the final destination, the NETBEUI frame completely lacks this information.
The bridge is responsible for Data link layer address Forwarding communication between networks has many disadvantages. Because all the wide
The broadcast communication must be forwarded to each network, so the scalability of the bridge is not good. NETBEUI specifically includes the counting of broadcast communications and relies on it to resolve naming conflicts. In general, bridging NETBEUI networks rarely exceeds 100 hosts. Depends on the second layer exchanger The Internet has become more common. The complete conversion environment reduces the utilization rate of the network, although the broadcast is still forwarded to each host in the network. In fact, the joint use of 100-BASE-T Ethernet allows the NetBIOS network to be converted to 350 hosts, so as to avoid the broadcast communication becoming a serious problem.
IPX/SPX
IPX is NOVELL for NETWARE client / The server This protocol group avoids the weakness of NETBEUI. However, it brings new and different weaknesses.
IPX has full routing capability and can be used in large enterprise networks. It includes 32 bits network address , many routing networks are allowed in a single environment.
The scalability of IPX is limited by its high-level broadcast communication and high overhead. Service advertisement Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) will route The number of hosts in the network is limited to several thousand. Although SAP's limitations have been Intelligent router and Server Configuration However, large-scale IPX network administrators It is still very difficult work.
TCP/IP
Each Network Protocol Both have their own advantages, but only TCP/IP allows a complete connection to the Internet. TCP/IP was developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology And some business organizations U.S. Department of Defense Developed, TCP/IP can still maintain effective communication even if most networks are damaged by nuclear attacks. ARPANET was developed based on protocols and developed into the Internet as a communication medium for scientists and engineers.
TCP/IP has both scalability and reliability demand Unfortunately, the speed and efficiency (However, the development of TCP/IP was funded by the government.).
After the Internet became public, people began to discover the powerful functions of the global network. The universality of the Internet is the reason TCP/IP is still used. Often without realizing it, users install TCP/IP stacks on their PCs Network Protocol It is the most widely used in the world.
The 32-bit addressing function scheme of TCP/IP is insufficient to support the number of hosts and networks that will join the Internet. Therefore, the standard that may replace the current implementation is IPv6.
RS-232-C
RS-232-C Is OSI basic reference model The specification of the physical layer part, which determines the physical characteristics such as the connector shape, the electrical characteristics represented by 0 and 1, and the logical characteristics representing the signal meaning. RS-232-C is a modified version of RS-232-B published by EIA. Originally for connection simulation Communication line In Modem Such as DCE and DTE such as teletype printer Interface And standardized. quite a lot personal computer Also use RS-232-C as I/O interface Personal computers with RS-232-C as the interface are also very popular. RS-232-C has the following characteristics: straight through mode, two-way communication, basic frequency band, current loop mode, serial transmission mode, signal form used between DCE-DTEs, handover mode, Full duplex communication RS-232-C 25 pin connector specified in V.24 and V.28 recommended by ITU is functionally interchangeable. The connector used for RS-232-C is a 25 pin plug-in connector, commonly referred to as a 25 pin D-SUB. The top of the cable at DTE end is connected to the male plug, and the DCE end is connected to the female socket. The shape of the cable used for RS-232-C is not fixed, but mostly 24 core cable with shielding is used. The maximum length of cable is 15m. Data transmission can be carried out at any rate below 200K bit/s using RS-232-C.
RS-449
RS-449 It is a standard published by EIA in 1977, which specifies the mechanical and electrical characteristics between DTE and DCE. RS-449 is a standard developed to replace RS-232-C, but almost all Data communication equipment The manufacturer still adopts the original standard, so RS-232-C is still the most popular interface and is widely used. The RS-449 connector uses the ISO specification 37 pin and 9-pin connectors. All connected circuits other than the secondary channel (return word channel) circuit use the 37 pin connector, while the secondary channel circuit uses the 9-pin connector. The electrical characteristics of RS-449 are specified by RS-422-A for the balance circuit, which is generally the same specification as V.11, while RS-423-A is generally the same specification as V.10.   V.35 5. 35 is universal terminal In fact, V.35 is for the 60-108kHz group bandwidth The provisions of the line for 48Kbps synchronous data transmission modem, part of which describes the provisions of the terminal interface. 5. 35 The mechanical characteristics, i.e. the shape of the connector, are not specified. But because 48Dbps - 64Kbps U.S.A With the popularity of Bell modems, 34 pin ISO2593 is widely used. The electrical conditions of audio modems for analog transmission use V.28 (unbalanced current loop interconnection circuit), while broadband modems use balanced current loop circuit.   X.21 10. 21 Yes Public data network Synchronous Terminal (DTE) and Line terminal (DCE). Two functions are mainly specified: one is the same as other interfaces, the physical layer of electrical characteristics, connector shape, and functional characteristics of interconnecting circuits are specified; The second is to control Network switching The network control steps of functions define the functions of the network layer. Only the physical layer function is used for the connection of private lines, while in the line switched data network, the physical layer and network layer functions are used. 10. The connector pins used for the 21 interface also only use 15 pin electrical characteristics, respectively referring to V.10 and V.11 of the electrical conditions of the V series interface. The digital network synchronization is subordinate to the network master clock.
HDLC (Advanced Data Link Control Procedure)
HDLC is a control procedure with high reliability and high-speed transmission. Its characteristics are as follows: any bit combination can be transmitted; It can transmit data continuously without waiting for the response from the receiving end; Tight error control; Suitable for computer Communication between. HDLC is equivalent to OSI basic reference Model Of data link layer Part of the standard way. HDLC has a wide range of applications. Most of the data link layers of modern protocols are based on HDLC.
SDLC (synchronous data link control)
It is the agreement made by IBM and becomes the SNA's Data link control layer agreement. It is actually included in HDLC.
FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface)
The transmission speed of FDDI is 100Mbps, and the transmission media is Optical fiber , is the token controlled LAN. The physical transmission clock speed of FDDI is 125MHz, but the actual speed is only 100Mbps. The maximum number of workstations that can be physically connected is 500, but less than 100 are recommended. There are basically two connection forms of FDDI: one is a ring structure composed of two rings of primary loop and secondary loop; The other is based on Hub Form a tree structure for the center. The distance between workstations is 2KM with optical fiber Twisted pair 100M. However, for single-mode fiber, the distance between nodes can be extended to more than 2KM. FDDI has three interfaces: DAS (dual accessory station); SAS (single accessory station); Hub. Generally, only the primary loop is used, and the secondary loop is in standby status as a standby system.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
TCP/IP protocol Centralized Network Management Protocol It has been widely adopted. The protocol that uses SNMP management model to manage Internet works in the application layer of TCP/IP. Its advantages are that protocols can be specified independent of the attributes of the network physical layer, common protocols can be used for all networks and management, and customers can be used between the manager and the managed/ The server Is called agent (tool); If the manager works as a client, it can be called a manager or a management station. The function of the agent should include operating system And the network management layer, obtain the seven layer information about the object, and use the SNMP network management protocol to notify the manager of this information. Managers themselves should require that information about objects be stored in the virtual database of the MIB (management information base) contained in the agent. For SNMP, it is required to be able to obtain or set the objects from the management to the agent network management object itself. The agent should complete the answer required by the manager. At the same time, the agent itself should also notify the manager of events that occur because of the agent. 10、 The PPP (point to point protocol), formulated as RFC1171/1172, is Point to point An Internet standard protocol that relays LAN protocols, including IP, on a line. PPP corresponds to multiple protocols since its inception, and is designed to be independent of network layer protocols data link When using PPP to relay each network layer protocol, each network layer protocol must have a specification corresponding to PPP. Some of these specifications already exist. The actual installation of PPP has begun, especially the one that must adapt to multi protocol Router The manufacturer actively adopts PPP. PPP consists of two protocols: one is to ensure that the data link LCP (Data Link Control Protocol); The other is to use the network layer protocol to control the NCP in the PPP environment( Network Control Protocol )。 For its purpose, NCP needs to be specified in each network layer protocol. The specific names of NCPs are different in the corresponding network layer protocols. To be more precise, the protocol stipulated in PPP is only LCP. How to put NCP and network layer protocol into PPP frame is up to the manufacturers who develop various network layer protocols. PPP frame has the function of transmitting LCP, NCP and network layer protocols. There are no special restrictions on the physical layer specification using LCP. RS-232-C RS-422 /423, V.35 and other general physical connectors. The application field of transmission speed is not specially specified, and the transmission speed allowed by the physical layer specification can be used. Instead, full duplex communication lines should be used. [2]
