- Watch animation to learn networking.
- Shows how IP addresses are being used when
computers are transmitting messages. Each packet
is tagged by sender and receiver's IP addresses. - This picture tutorial takes screenshots from IP
Address Animation. - OK to republish this slide. Please use hyperlink

2IP Address animations
- Why IP address? Visualize how IP addresses are
being used when Internet forwards messages
between computers. - 2. How Internet Forwards Packets? Computers
are connected to Internet via gateway routers.
Routers use routing table to make packet
forwarding decisions. - 3. Network Address. A 32-bit IP address is
divided into network ID (left bits) and host ID
(right bits). Router uses network addresses to
forwad packets. - 4. Classful IP Address. Present IP addresses
in A, B, C, D classes by byte boundary with
a.4-digit form (a.b.c.d) and show how routing
table does lookup. - 5. Subnettiing - Classless IP address It uses
a class B address and its 5 subnets as an
examples to show how routing table lookup works
with different network mask. - 6. VLSM Show a good subnetting design case
that aggregatrd routes in a routing table. Ans
show a bad case that cannot aggregate routes.

3Overview Why IP address? Animation Link
Goal Use Ping to show how computers are using IP
addresses to send and receive messages across
Internet. Topology 3 computrers are connected to
Internet. Each is assigned an individual IP
address. Steps 1) Jack ping Rose. It transmits
a Ping packet with "Receiver address" to be
Rose's IP address, 2) Internet
forwards Ping to Rose. 3) Rose
receives Ping and sends an Echo back to Jack.
Internet forward Echo to Jack.
4Topology?IP Addresses
- In this case study, we present a simplied
Internet. Three computers Jack. Rose, and Mary
are connected to - Internet, Their IP addresses are100.4.5.6,
150.1.2.3, and 222.111.44.33. This topology will
be reused in the - following IP Address simulations.
- Note See FAQ for more information on IP
addresses usage and structure.
5Jack Ping Rose
Jack wants to know whether Rose is online. He
ping Rose. A Ping packet is transmitted from
Jack's computer. This packet carries two
addresses like a postal mail. Receiver address is
Roses' IP address 150.1.2.3. Sender address is
Jack's IP address 100.4.5.6. Jack has no idea
where Rose is located. He is counting on Internet
to delver it to Rose. Click Ping to see its
addresses.
6Internet forwards ping
When Internet receives Ping packet, it sees the
receiver's address is 150.1.2.3 and forwards Ping
to Rose. We can look at the Internet as a big
communication black box. You pass a message to it
with a receiver's IP address and Internet will
deliver it for you. The only thing Internet needs
is the correct receiver IP address.
7Rose sends an Echo to Jack
When Internet receives Ping packet, it sees the
receiver's address is 150.1.2.3 and forwards Ping
to Rose. We can look at the Internet as a big
communication black box. You pass a message to it
with a receiver's IP address and Internet will
deliver it for you. The only thing Internet needs
is the correct receiver IP address.
8Rose sends an Echo to Jack
When Internet receives Ping packet, it sees the
receiver's address is 150.1.2.3 and forwards Ping
to Rose. We can look at the Internet as a big
communication black box. You pass a message to it
with a receiver's IP address and Internet will
deliver it for you. The only thing Internet needs
is the correct receiver IP address.
9Rose sends an Echo to Jack

with a receiver's IP address and Internet will
