COURSE INTRODUCTION
Modern world scenario is ever changing. Data Communication and network have changed
the way business and other daily affair works. Now, they highly rely on computer networks
and internetwork.
A set of devices often mentioned as nodes connected by media link is called a Network.
A node can be a device which is capable of sending or receiving data generated by other
nodes on the network like a computer, printer etc. These links connecting the devices are
called Communication channels.
Computer network is a telecommunication channel using which we can share data with
other computers or devices, connected to the same network. It is also called Data Network.
The best example of computer network is Internet.
Computer network does not mean a system with one Control Unit connected to multiple
other systems as its slave. That is Distributed system, not Computer Network.
A network must be able to meet certain criterias, these are mentioned below:
1. Performance
2. Reliability
3. Scalability
It can be measured in the following ways:
 Transit time : It is the time taken to travel a message from one device to another.
 Response time : It is defined as the time elapsed between enquiry and response.
Other ways to measure performance are :
1. Efficiency of software
2. Number of users
3. Capability of connected hardware

Network Commands
Ethtool is a Network Interface Cards (NICs) utility/configuration tool. Ethtool allows you to
query and change your NIC settings such as the Speed, Port, auto-negotiation and many
other parameters.
ifconfig -a
To show the Network Card information
Note down the IP address and MAC Address ( Understand MAC address – IP Address)
Ping ( Packet Internet Gropper)
Verifies IP-level connectivity to another TCP/IP computer by sending Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages. The receipt of corresponding Echo
Reply messages are displayed, along with round-trip times. Ping is the primary TCP/IP
command used to troubleshoot connectivity, reachability, and name resolution.
To check Local Ethernet Connection
At the command prompt, ping the loopback address by typing ping 127.0.0.1
ping near by system ping <171.16.6.111> ping -c 10 <ipaddress> write observation
ping www.google.com
Arp
Displays and modifies entries in the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache, which
contains one or more tables that are used to store IP addresses and their resolved Ethernet
arp
*Find Machine Gateway Hardware Address-Why it is necessary
Tracert / traceroute - trace Path
Traceroute: Determines the path taken to a destination by sending Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages to the destination with incrementally
increasing Time to Live (TTL) field values- tracepath similar to traceroute command, but it
doesn't require root privileges
$ traceroute www.google.co.in
$tracepath www.ubidots.com

Netstat
Displays active TCP connections, ports on which the computer is listening, Ethernet
statistics, the IP routing table, IPv4 statistics (for the IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP protocols),
and IPv6 statistics (for the IPv6, ICMPv6, TCP over IPv6, and UDP over IPv6 protocols).
Note Down The few TCP UDP ports
nslookup
Nslookup (Name Server lookup) is a UNIX shell command to query Internet domain name
servers.
$nslookup www.annauniv.edu
notedown the IP address Undestand Non-authoritative answer
dig (Domain Information Groper) is a flexible tool for interrogating DNS name servers.
It performs DNS lookups and displays the answers that are returned from the name servers.
$dig geekflare.com
What do you mean by DNS Server .
w prints a summary of the current activity on the system, including what each user is doing,
and their processes.
Also list the logged in users and system load average for the past 1, 5, and 15 minutes.
nmap
nmap is a one of the powerful commands, which checks the opened port on the server.
Usage example:
nmap $server_name
Interface Settings
You can enable or disable the network interface by using ifup/ifdown commands with
ethernet interface parameter.
To disable eth0
$ifdown <eth0> check neighbor connection with PING command what ?
To enable eth0
$ifup <eth0> This command displays domain name for given IP address and displays IP
address for given domain name. It also performs DNS lookups related to DNS query.
host www.thingspeak.com host <ipaddress>
find difference betewwn ipv4 and ipv6

mtr
The mtr command is a combinatiion of ping and traceroute command. It continuously sends
packet showing ping time for each hop. It also shows network problems.
Syntax: mtr<path> mtr facebook.com see the result & find
observation
The who is command displays information about a website's record. You may get all the
information about a website regarding its registration and owner's information.
Syntax: whois <websiteName>
whois www.gmail.com whois mail.office365.com

Aim:
To study network simulator 2
Study of NS2:
Introduction:
The network simulator is discrete event packet level simulator. The network
simulator covers a very large number of application of different kind of protocols of
different network types consisting of different network elements and traffic models.
Network simulator is a package oftools that simulates behaviour of networks such as
creating network topologies, log events that happen under any load, analyse the eventsand
understand the network
Platform required to run the network simulator
• Unix and Unix like systems
• Linux(Use Fedora or Ubuntu version)
• Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP
Backend Environment of network simulator
Network simulator is mainly based on two languages. They are C++ and OTcl. OTcl is the
object oriented version of Tool Command language. The network simulator is a bank of
different network and protocol objects. C++ helps in the following way:
• It helps to increase the efficiency of simulation
• It is used to provide details of the protocols and their operation
• It is used to reduce packet and event processing time OTcl helps in the following
way:
• With the help of OTcl we can describe different network topologies
• it helps us to specify the protocols and their applications
• It allows fast development
• Tcl is compatible with many platforms and it is flexible for integration
• Tcl is very easy to use and it is available for free
Basics of Tcl Programming (w.r.t NS2)
Before we get into the program we should consider the following things:
1. Initialisation and termination aspects of network simulator
2. Defining the network nodes, links, queues and topology as well
3. Defining the agents and their applications
4. Network adminiatrator(NAM)
5. Tracing

42
Initialisation:
To start a new simulator we write
set ns[new simulator]
From the above we get that a variable ns is being initialised by using a set command.
Here the code [new simulator] is a instantiation of the class Simulator which uses the
reserved word ‘new’. So we can call all the methods present inside the class simulator by
using the variable ns
Creating the output files
# To create the trace files we write
set tracefile1[open out.tr w]
$ns trace-all $tracefile1
#To create the nam files we write
set namfile1[open out.nam w]
$ns namtrace-all $namfile1
In the above we create a output trace file out.tr and a NAM visualisation file out.nam. But
in the Tcl script they are not called by their names declared, while they are called by the
pointers initialised for them such as tracefile1 and namfile1 respectively. The line which
starts with ‘#’ are commented. The next line opens the file ‘out.tr’ which is used for writing
is declared ‘w’. The next line uses a simulator method trace-all by which we will trace all
the events in a particular format. The termination program is done by using a ‘finish’
procedure.
#Defining the ‘finish’ procedure
proc finish { }
{
global ns tracefile1 namfile1
$ns flush-trace
close $tracefile
close $namfile
exec nam out.nam &
exit 0
}
In the above the word ‘proc’ is used to declare a procedure called ‘finish’. The word
‘global’ is used to tell what variables are being used outside the procedure. ‘flush-trace’ is a
simulator method that dumps the traces on the respective files. The command ‘close’ is used
to close the trace files and the command ‘exec’ is used to execute the nam visualisation. The
command ‘exit’ closes the application and returns 0 as zero(0) is default for clean exit.
In ns we end the program by calling the ‘finish’ procedure
#end the program
$ns at 125.0 “finish”

43. CS 8581 – Networks Laboratory Kamaraj College of EngineeringandTechnology,Madurai
43
Thus the entire operation ends at 125 seconds. To begin the simulation we will use the
command
#start the simulation process
$ns run
Defining nodes, links, queues and topology
Create a node:
set n0[ns node]
In the above we created a node that is pointed by a variable n0. While referring the
node in the script we use $n0. Similarly we create another node n2.
Now we will set a link between the two nodes.
$ns duplex-link $n0 $n2 10Mb 10ms DropTail
Here, a bi-directional link is created between n0 and n2 with a capacity of 10Mb.sec
and a propagation delay of 10ms.In NS an output queue of a node is implemented as a part
of a link whose input is that node to handle the overflow at the queue. But if the buffer
capacity of the output queue is exceeded then the last packet arrived is dropped and here the
‘DropTail’ option is used. Many other options such as RED(Random Early Discard)
mechanism, FQ(Fair Queuing), DRR(Deficit Round Robin), SFQ(Stochastic Fair
Queuing)are available.
Now we will define the buffer capacity of the queue related to the above link
#Set queue size of the link
$ns queue-link $n0 $n2 20
Summarizing the above three things we get
#create nodes
set n0 [$ns node]
set n1 [$ns node]
set n2 [$ns node]
set n3 [$ns node]
set n4 [$ns node]
set n5 [$ns node]
#create links between the nodes
$ns duplex-link $n0 $n2 10Mb 10ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n1 $n2 10Mb 10ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n2 $n3 0.3Mb 100ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n3 $n2 0.3Mb 100ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n0 $n2 0.5Mb 40ms DropTail
$ns duplex-link $n0 $n2 0.5Mb 40ms DropTail
#set queue-size of the link (n2-n3) to 20
$ns queue-limit $n2 $n3 20

Agents and application
TCP
TCP is a dynamic reliable congestion protocol which is used to provide reliable transport of
packets from one host to another host by sending acknowledgements on proper transfer or
loss of packets. Thus TCP requires bi-directional links in order for acknowledgements to
return to the source.
Now we will show how to set up tcp connection between two nodes
#setting a tcp connection
set tcp [new Agent/TCP]
$ns attach-agent $n0 $tcp
set sink [new Agent/TCPSink]
$ns attach-agent $n4 $sink
$ns connect $tcp $sink
$tcp set fid_1
$tcp set packetSize_552
The command ‘set tcp [new Agent/TCP]’ gives a pointer called ‘tcp’ which indicates the tcp
agent which is a object of ns. Then the command ‘$ns attach-agent $n0 $tcp’ defines the
source node of tcp connection. Next the command ‘set sink[new Agent/TCPSink]’ defines
the destination of tcp by a pointer called sink. The next command ‘$ns attach-agent $n4
$sink’ defines the destination node as n4. Next the command ‘$ns connect $tcp $sink’
makes the TCP connection between the source and the destination. i.e n0 and n4. When we
have several flows such as TCP, UDP etc in a network. So,to identify these flows we
ark these flows by using the command ‘$tcp set fid_1’. In the last line we set the
packet size of tcp as 552 while the default packet size of tcp is 1000.
FTP over TCP
File Transfer Protocol(FTP) is a standard mechanism provided by the Internet for
transferring files from one host to another. Well, This is the most common task expected
from a networking or a internetworking. FTP differs from other client server applications in
that it establishes between the client and the server. One connection is used for data
transfer and other one is used for providing control information. FTP uses the services of the
TCP. It needs two connections. The well known port 21 is used for control connections and
the other port 20 is used for data transfer.

45. CS 8581 – Networks Laboratory Kamaraj College of EngineeringandTechnology,Madurai
45
Well here we will learn in how to run a FTP connection over a TCP
#Initiating FTP over TCP
set ftp [new Application/FTP]
$ftp attach-agent $tcp
In above, the command ‘set ftp [new Application/FTP]’ gives a pointer called ftp
which indicates the FTP application. Next we attach the ftp application with tcp agent as
FTP uses the services of TCP
UDP
The User data protocol is one of the main protocols of the internet protocol suite.
UDP helps the host to send messages in the form of datagrams to another host which is
present in a Internet protocol network without any kind of requirement for channel
transmission setup. UDP provides a unreliable service and the datagrams may arrive out of
order, appear duplicated or go missing without notice. UDP asumes that error checking and
correction is either not necessary or performed in the application avoiding the overhead of
such processing at the network interface level. Time sensitive applications often use UDP
because dropping packets is preferable to waiting for delayed packets, which may not
be an option in a real-time system .
Now we will learn how to create a UDP connection in network simulator
#setup a UDP connection
set udp [new Agemt/UDP]
$ns attach-agent $n1 $udp
$set null [new Agent/Null]
$ns attach-agent $n5 $null
$ns connect $udp $null
$udp set fid_2
Similarly, the command ‘set udp [new Agent/UDP]’ gives a pointer called ‘udp’
which indicates the udp agent which is an object of ns. Then the command ‘$ns attach-agent
$n1 $udp’ defines the source node of udp connection. Next the command ‘set null [new
Agent/Null]’ defines the destination of udp by a pointer called null. The next command ‘$ns
attach-agent $n5 $null’ defines the destination node as n5. Next, the command ‘$ns
connect $udp $null’ makes the UDP connection between the source and the destination. i.e
n1 and n5. When we have several flows such as TCP,UDP etc in a network. So, to identify
these flows we mark these flows by using the command ‘$udp set fid_2’

Constant Bit Rate(CBR)
Constant Bit rate(CBR) is a term used in telecommunications, relating to the quality
of service. When referring to codecs, constant bit rate encoding means that the rate at which
a codec’s output data should be consumed is constant. CBR is useful for streaming
multimedia content on limited capacity channels since it is the maximum bit rate that
matters, not the average, so CBR would be used to take advantage of all of the capacity.
CBR would not be the optimal choice for storage as it would not allocate enough data for
complex sections (resulting in degraded quality) while wasting data on simple sections.
CBR over UDP connection
#setup cbr over udp
set cbr [new Application/Traffic/CBR]
$cbr attach-agent $udp
$cbr set packetSize_1000
$cbr set rate_0.01Mb
$cbr set random_false
In the above we define CBR connection over a UDP one. Well we have already defined
the UDP source and UDP agent as same as TCP. Instead of defining the rate we define the
time interval between the transmission of packets in the command ‘$cbr set
rate_0.01Mb’. Next, with the help of the command ‘$cbr set random_false’ we can set
random noise in cbr traffic, we can keep the noise by setting it to false or we can set the
noise on by the command ‘$cbr set random_1’. We an set by packet size by using the
command ‘$cbr set packetSize_(packet size). We can set the packet size up to sum value in
bytes.
Scheduling events
In ns the tcl script defines how to schedule events or in other words at what time which
event will occur and stop. This can be done using the commands
‘$ns at’
So here in our program we will schedule the ftp and cbr.
1 #scheduling the events
2 $ns at 0.1 “cbr start”
3 $ns at 1.0 “ftp start”
4 $ns at 124.0 “ftp stop”
5 $ns at 124.5 “cbr stop”

Network Animator (NAM)
When we will run the above program in ns then we can visualise the network in the NAM.
But instead of giving random positions to the nodes we can give suitable initial positions to
the nodes and can form a suitable topology. So, in our program we can give positions to the
nodes in NAM in the following way
#Give position to the nodes in NAM
$ns duplex_link_op $n0 $n2 orient-right-down
$ns duplex_link_op $n1 $n2 orient-right-up
$ns duplex_link_op $n2 $n3 orient-right
$ns duplex_link_op $n3 $n2 orient-left
$ns duplex_link_op $n3 $n4 orient-right-up
$ns duplex_link_op $n3 $n5 orient-right-down
We can also define the colour of cbr and tcp packets for identification in
NAM. For this we use the following command.
#Marking the flows

Tracing
Tracing Objects
NS simulation can produce visualization trace as well as ASCII file corresponding to the
events that are registered at the network. While tracing ns inserts the objects: EnqT, DeqT,
RecvT & DrpT. EnqT registers information regarding the arrival of packet and is queued at
the input queue of the link. When the overflow of a packet occurs, then the information of
the dropped packet is registered n DrpT. DeqT holds the information about the packet that
is dequeued instantly. RecvT hold the information about the packet that has been received
instanty.

Structure of Trace files
1. The first field is event. It gives you tfour possible symbols ‘+’,’-‘,’r’,’d’.
These four symbols correspond respectively to enqueued, dequeued, received
and dropped.

2. The second field gives the time at which the event occurs.
3. The third gives you the input node of the link at which the event occurs
4. The fourth gives you the output node at which the event occurs
5. The fifth shows the information about the packet .i.e whether the packet is
UDP or TCP
6. The sixth gives the packet size
7. The seventh field gives information about some flags
8. The eighth field is the flow id(fid) for IPv6 that a user can set for each flow in
tcl script. It is also used for specifying the color of flow in NAM display
9. The ninth field is the source address
10.The tenth field is the destination address
11.The eleventh field is the network layer protocol’s packet sequence number
12.The last field shows the unique id of the packet
Following are trace of two events:
r 1.84471 2 1 cbr 210 ------- 1 3 .0 1.0 195 600
r 1.84566 2 0 ack 40 ------- 2 3.2 0.1 82 602
The trace file can be viewed with the cat command:
cat out.tr
The Network Animator (NAM) tool:
• The Network Animator(nam) is a completely separate program that is distributed with
NS simulator
• This program is named nam and it shows the progression of the packets through the
network.
.NAM FILE:
• The nam program reads an input file(containing the packet transmission events) and
draw the network events graphically.

49. CS 8581 – Networks Laboratory Kamaraj College of EngineeringandTechnology,Madurai

Make NS output network event information for NAM:
The steps to create a nam file are given below:
Create an output file
Activate the NAM trace failure in NS before running the simulation (this will
tell NS to write NAM events output to the output file). Close the output file at
the end of the simulation run. Then the nam file is run with the output file (as
input file for nam)
Here is an example of code in Tcl to achieve this:
#(1) Create the trace file
set namfile [open out.nam w]
#(2) Tell NS to write NAM network events to this trace file
$ns namtrace-all $namfile
#(3) Close output file at the end of the simulation run
proc finish {} {
global ns namfile
$ns flush-trace ;# flush trace files
close $namfile ;#close trace file
exec nam out.nam & ;
# run NAM from inside the NS simulation
exit 0
}

XGRAPH
The xgraph program draws a graph on an X display given data read from either data
files or from standard input if no files are specified. It can display up to 64 independent data
sets using different colors and/or line styles for each set. It annotates the graph with a title,
axis labels, grid lines or tick arks, grid labels and a legend.There are options to control the
appearance of most components of the graph. A data set consists of an ordered list of points
of the form “directive X Y”. For directive “draw”, a line will be drawn between the previous
point and the current point. Specifying a “ move” directive tells xgraph not to draw a line
between the points. “draw” is the default directive. The name of a data set can be specified
by enclosing the name in double quotes. Overall graphing options for the graph can be
specified in data files by writing lines of the form “¡option¿: ¡ value¿”. The interface used to
specify the size and location of this window depends on the window manager currently in
use. Once the window has been opened, all of the data sets will be displayed graphically
with a legend in the upper right corner of the screen.Xgraph also presents three control
buttons in the upper left corner of each window: Hardcopy, Close and About Xgraph
accepts a large number of options most of which can be specified either on the command
line, in the user’s .Xdefaults or .Xresources file, or in the data files themselves.
Suppose we have three output files as follows:
Now we have to open three output files. The following lines have to appear ‘early’ in
the Tcl script.
set f0 [open out0.tr w]
set f1 [open out1.tr w]
set f2 [open out2.tr w]
These files have to be closed at some point. We use a modified ‘finish’
procedure to do that.
proc finish{} {
global f0 f1 f2
#close the output files
close $f0
close $f1
close $f2
#Call xgraph to display the results
exec xgraph out0.tr out1.tr out2.tr –geometry 800x400 &
exit 0
}

Aim:
To write program to implement routing protocol.
 Distance vector
 OSPF
RIP ROUTING PROTOCOL
1. Distance vector routing is distributed, i.e., algorithm is run on all nodes.
2. Each node knows the distance (cost) to each of its directly connected neighbors.
3. Nodes construct a vector (Destination, Cost,NextHop) and distributes to its
neighbors.
4. Nodes compute routing table of minimum distance to every other node via NextHop
using information obtained from its neighbors.
Initial State
4. In given network, cost of each link is 1 hop.
5. Each node sets a distance of 1 (hop) to its immediate neighbor and cost to itself as 0.
6. Distance for non-neighbors is marked as unreachable with value ∞ (infinity).
7. For node A, nodes B, C, E and F are reachable, whereas nodes D and G are
unreachable.
Destination Cost NextHop Destination Cost NextHop Destination Cost NextHop
A 0 A A 1 A A 1 A
B 1 B B 1 B B ∞ ―

Sharing & Updation
Each node sends its initial table (distance vector) to neighbors and receives their estimate.
Node A sends its table to nodes B, C, E & F and receives tables from nodes B, C, E & F.
Each node updates its routing table by comparing with each of its neighbor's table
For each destination, Total Cost is computed as:
TotalCost = Cost (Node to Neighbor) + Cost (Neighbor to Destination)
If TotalCost<Cost then
Cost = TotalCost and NextHop = Neighbor
Node A learns from C's table to reach node D and from F's table to reach node G.
Total Cost to reach node D via C = Cost (A to C) + Cost(C to D) = 1 + 1 = 2. Since 2
< ∞, entry for destination D in A's table is changed to (D, 2, C)
Total Cost to reach node G via F = Cost(A to F) + Cost(F to G) = 1 + 1 = 2
Since 2 < ∞, entry for destination G in A's table is changed to (G, 2, F)
Each node builds complete routing table after few exchanges amongst its neighbors.
Open shortest path first (OSPF)
An area is a group of contiguous network and routers. Routers belonging to same
area shares a common topology table and area I’d. The area I’d is associated with router’s
interface as a router can belong to more than one area. There are some roles of router in
OSPF:
1. Backbone router – The area 0 is known as backbone area and the routers in area 0
are known as backbone routers. If the routers exists partially in the area 0then also it
is a backbone router.
2. Internal router – An internal router is a router which have all of its interfaces in a
single area.
3. Area Boundary Router (ABR) – The router which connects backbone area with
another area is called Area Boundary Router. It belongs to more than one area. The
ABRs therefore maintain multiple link-state databases that describe both the
backbone topology and the topology of the other areas.
4. 4.Area Summary Border Router (ASBR) – When an OSPF router is connected to
a different protocol like EIGRP, or Border Gateway Protocol, or any other routing
protocol then it is known as AS. The router which connects two different AS (in

56. CS 8581 – Networks Laboratory Kamaraj College of EngineeringandTechnology,Madurai
56
which one of the interface is operating OSPF) is known as Area Summary Border
Router. These routers perform redistribution. ASBRs run both OSPF and another
routing protocol, such as RIP or BGP. ASBRs advertise the exchanged external
routing information throughout their
Link State Routing and construct the least cost tree for the following graph and
explain the working of OSPF.
 Each node knows state of link to its neighbors and cost.
 Nodes create an update packet called link-state packet (LSP) that
contains: IDof the node
o List of neighbors for that node and associated
cost o 64-bit Sequence number
o Time to live
 Link-state routing protocols rely on two mechanisms:
o Reliable dissemination of link-state information to all other
nodes o Route calculation from the accumulated link-state
knowledge
Apply Link State Routing and construct the least cost tree for the following graph and
explain the working of OSPF.
 Each node knows state of link to its neighbors and cost.
 Nodes create an update packet called link-state packet (LSP) that
contains: o ID of the node
o List of neighbors for that node and associated
cost o 64-bit Sequence number
o Time to live
 Link-state routing protocols rely on two mechanisms:
o Reliable dissemination of link-state information to all other
nodes o Route calculation from the accumulated link-state
knowledge
Reliable Flooding
 Each node sends its LSP out on each of its directly connected links.
 When a node receives LSP of another node, checks if it has an LSP already for that
node. o If not, it stores and forwards the LSP on all other links except the
incoming one. o Else if the received LSP has a bigger sequence number, then it
is stored and
forwarded. Older LSP for that node is discarded.
o Otherwise discard the received LSP, since it is not latest for that node.
Thus recent LSP of a node eventually reaches all nodes, i.e., reliable flooding.
(a) (b) (c) (d)
Flooding of LSP in a small network is as follows:
o When node X receives Y’s LSP (fig a), it floods onto its neighbors A and C
(fig o Nodes A and C forward it to B, but does not sends it back to X (fig c).
o Node B receives two copies of LSP with same sequence number.

57. CS 8581 – Networks Laboratory Kamaraj College of EngineeringandTechnology,Madurai
57
 Accepts one LSP and forwards it to D (fig d). Flooding is complete.
LSP is generated either periodically or when there is a change in the topology.
Route Calculation
Each node knows the entire topology, once it has LSP from every other node.
Forward search algorithm is used to compute routing table from the received LSPs.
Each node maintains two lists, namely Tentative and Confirmed with entries of the form
(Destination, Cost, NextHop).
Forward Search algorithm (Djkstra’s Shortest Path)
 Initialize the Confirmed list with an entry for the Node (Cost = 0).
 Node just added to Confirmed list is called Next. Its LSP is examined.
 For each neighbor of Next, calculate cost to reach each neighbor as Cost (Node to
Next) +
Cost (NexttoNeighbor).
 If Neighbor is neither in Confirmed nor in Tentative list, then add (Neighbor,
Cost, NextHop) to Tentative list.
 If Neighbor is in Tentative list, and Cost is less than existing cost, then
replace the entry with (Neighbor, Cost, NextHop).
 If Tentative list is empty then Stop, otherwise move least cost entry from Tentative
list to Confirmed list. Go to Step 2.

Aim:
To analyze various Protocols using Ethernet Protocol Analyzer.(WireShark)
ETHEREAL ANALYSER:
The basic tool for observing the messages exchanged between executing protocol
entities is called a packet sniffer. As the name suggests, a packet sniffer captures
(“sniffs”) messages being sent/received from/by your computer; it will also typically store
and/or display the contents of the various protocol fields in these captured messages. A
packet sniffer itself is passive. It observes messages being sent and received by
applications and protocols running on your computer, but never sends packets itself.
Similarly, received packets are never explicitly addressed to the packet sniffer. Instead, a
packet sniffer receives a copy of packets that are sent/received from/by application and
protocols executing on your machine.
Figure 1 shows the structure of a packet sniffer. At the right of Figure 1 are the protocols
(in this case, Internet protocols) and applications (such as a web browser or ftp client) that
normally run on your computer. The packet sniffer, shown within the dashed rectangle in
Figure 1 is an addition to the usual software in your computer, and consists of two parts.
The packet capture library receives a copy of every link-layer frame that is sent from or
received by your computer. That messages exchanged by higher layer protocols such as
HTTP, FTP, TCP, UDP, DNS, or IP all are eventually encapsulated in link-layer frames
that are transmitted over physical media such as an Ethernet cable. In Figure, the assumed
physical media is an Ethernet, and so all upper layer protocols are eventually encapsulated
within an Ethernet frame. Capturing all link-layer frames thus gives you all messages
sent/received from/by all protocols and applications executing in it.
The second component of a packet sniffer is the packet analyzer, which displays the
contents of all fields within a protocol message. In order to do so, the packet analyzer must
“understand” the structure of all messages exchanged by protocols. For example, suppose
we are interested in displaying the various fields in messages exchanged by the HTTP
protocol. The packet analyzer understands the format of Ethernet frames, and so can
identify the IP datagram within an Ethernet frame. It also understands the IP datagram
format, so that it can extract the TCP segment within the IP datagram. Finally, it

understands the TCP segment structure, so it can extract the HTTP message contained in
the TCP segment. Finally, it understands the HTTP protocol

Basic Router Commands & Configuration of Router
Start the router simulator.
You will see the prompt "Router>". This is the user mode prompt.
Type "enable" to take you into privileged mode.
You will see the prompt "Router#"
Type "config terminal" to go directly into configuration mode.
Click on the "Show Network Plan" button. Note that the router that you are configuring
should be named Router1.
Type "hostname Router1" to change the name of the router to Router1
Ctrl + Z to move to Previlege mode
Type "show interface ethernet 0". Note that there is no protocol listed and line protocol is
down.
Type "show interface serial 0". Note that there is no protocol listed and line protocol is
down.
Type "show running-config". Again, no protocols are listed.
Type "config terminal" to go directly into configuration mode.
Type "interface ethernet 0" to enter interface configuration mode for the Ethernet
interface.
Click the Show Network Plan button on the simulator. Note that the network interface of the
router has an IP address of 172.10.0.1. We will assign this IP address and a default subnet
mask to this interface:
Type "ip address 172.10.0.1 255.255.0.0" to assign the IP configuration.
Type "no shutdown" to enable the interface.
Type "exit" to leave the Ethernet interface configuration.
connection will be 210.16.54.1. Here's how you configure the serial interface:
Type "interface serial 0" to enter interface configuration mode for the serial interface.
Type "ip address 210.16.54.1 255.255.255.0" to assign the IP address and subnet mask.

71. CS 8581 – Networks Laboratory Kamaraj College of EngineeringandTechnology,Madurai

Type "bandwidth 56" to set the bandwidth. This setting is measured in Kbps.
Note: The bandwidth command is usually only used in the testing lab environment.
Type "clock rate 56000" to set the DCE rate. This setting is measured in Bps. Also note that
clock rate is two words.
Note: The clock rate only needs to be set on the router that handles DCE.
Type "no shutdown" to enable the interface.
Type "exit" to leave the serial interface configuration.
Type "ctrl-z" to leave config mode.
Now we can check our configurations:
Make sure you are in privileged mode.
Type "show interface ethernet 0". Note that line protocol is up. If it is not up, repeat this
lab.
Type "show interface serial 0". Note that line protocol is up. If it is not up, repeat this lab.
Type "show running-config". Note the IP addresses of Ethernet0 and Serial0 entries.
Note: To use dynamic routing, the other routers in your network must use the same routing
protocol. For this simulation, the other router will work with either RIP or IGRP.
Start the router simulator. Go into privileged mode.
Type "show ip route". Note that two directly connected routes are shown.
Enter config mode. (Type "configure terminal" or "config t")
Type "router rip" to enable RIP on your router
Once RIP is enabled on a router, you must specify each network in which the router will
advertise routing.
Type "network 210.16.54.0"
Type "network 172.10.0.0"
Dynamic routing is now configured through RIP.

Type Ctrl-z to exit config mode.
Type "show ip route". Note that routes to all four networks are shown.
The same steps would be used to establish IGRP routing:
Enter config mode. (Type "configure terminal" or "config t")
First remove RIP by typing "no router rip"
Type "router igrp" to enable IGRP on your router.
Once IGRP is enabled on a router, you must specify each network in which the router will
advertise routing.
Type "network 210.16.54.0"
Type "network 172.10.0.0"
Dynamic routing is now configured through IGRP.
Type Ctrl-z to exit config mode.
Type "show ip route". Note that routes to all four networks are shown.
Note: To use dynamic routing in a network, all routers must use the same route
advertisement method (IGRP or RIP).
Make sure you are in privileged mode.
Type = "ping 172.10.0.1" to verify the configuration of the Ethernet port.
Type = "ping 172.10.0.10" to verify the connectivity with ServerA.
