Recall the SSL enhances TCP to include protection services, including encryption, from machine to process. Does SSL work on the transport layer or layer of the application? What would the client have to do if the software developer needs TCP to be improved with SSL?
Give some reasons why it could be better for an application developer to run the program using the UDP protocol rather than the TCP protocol so that the program can be executed. Is it even remotely possible for a program to have dependable data transfer while it is operating through UDP, even if the application itself is the one doing the transmitting? If so, in what specific ways?
Remember that the TCP/IP protocol suite performs packet reordering and reassembly during the transport phase. For example, firewalls may function on the Internet or the data layer, which is a lower level of abstraction. If a traffic stream is out of order or erased, a stateful inspection firewall will not be able to determine anything about it.

- Don't forget that the TCP/IP protocol suite's transport stage is where reordering and reassembly of packets occurs. If necessary, a firewall may function at the Internet or data layer level of abstraction. In the event that a traffic stream is out of order or has been erased, a stateful inspection firewall will be unable to learn anything about it.arrow_forwardThe original HTTP protocol used TCP/IP as the underlying network protocol. For each page, graphic, or applet, a separate TCP session was constructed, used, and torn down. Because of the overhead of building and destroying TCP/IP connections, performance problems resulted from this implementation method. Would using UDP rather than TCP be a good alternative? What other changes could you make to improve HTTP performance?arrow_forwardIn this assignment you should find a TCP based protocol, read and learn how it works. The you should create a document which describes the protocol, what it does and a bit of its history (1 page). Then you should explain the protocol, step by step how it works (at least 2 pages). Add a sequence diagram. Finally, add a conclusion giving some insight about why this protocol is built like this and if there are any possibility of improvement.

- Keep in mind that packet reordering and reassembly occur throughout the transport phase of the TCP/IP protocol suite's operation. It is possible for a firewall to operate at a lower abstraction level, such as the Internet or data layer.
