  • This chapter aims at explaining the problems that arise when we need to support multiple applications through a network. It will cover the following principles - naming versus addressing - representing data - abstractions for services (connectionless, connection-oriented, request-response) - principles of the transport layer (multiplexing, connection management)

  • The objective of this chapter is to explain the main principles behind the creation of a network, namely - data plane versus control plane - datagram versus virtual circuit - source routing - destination based routing - label switching - routing protocols (distance vector and link state) Document in this milestone any issue with this chapter

    No due date
