Program Plan Intro

Internet Protocol (IP):

Internet protocol is a process or protocol in which data is transferred between the computer systems through internet. Each computer system has its own IP address to send or receive the required data. It consists of five different layers namely, application layer, transport layer, network layer, link layer and physical layer.

Datagram:

  • In networking, a datagram is a transferring unit which is used to transfer the data from a source to the destination and it doesn’t provide guaranteed service.
  • It includes fragmentation process which is defined as the division of the data packet into small one when the data packets are larger than the maximum length of a particular system.

Generalized forwarding:

  • Generalized forwarding is defined as the forwarding of datagram interfaces from the router.
  • The interface depends on the final destination and other components related to datagram.
  • It is adopted by software-defined networking using IP address, port numbers and many such related to datagram.

We have seen that Internet TCP sockets treat the data being sent as a byte stream but UDP sockets recognize message boundaries. What are one advantage and one disadvantage of byte-oriented API versus having the API explicitly recognize and preserve application-defined message boundaries?
Are the TCP receive buffer and the application buffer on the client exactly the same thing when HTTP streaming is being used? How are they supposed to behave toward one another if they are unable to converse with one another?
