Compressing TCP/IP Headers for Low-Speed Serial Links  (Error Handling) RFC 1144 Error handling Error detection In the author’s experience, dial-up connections are particularly prone to data errors. These errors interact with compression in two different ways: First is the local effect of an error in a compressed packet. All error detection is based on redundancy yet […]

Compressing TCP/IP Headers for Low-Speed Serial Links  (RFC 1144) 1 Introduction As increasingly powerful computers find their way into people’s homes, there is growing interest in extending Internet connectivity to those computers. Unfortunately, this extension exposes some complex problems in link-level framing, address assignment, routing, authentication, and performance. As of this writing, there is active […]

Nonstandard for Transmission of IP Datagrams over Serial Lines: SLIP

Posted on | by Telecom and Networking | Leave a Comment on Nonstandard for Transmission of IP Datagrams over Serial Lines: SLIP

A Nonstandard for Transmission of IP Datagrams over Serial Lines: SLIP (RFC 1055) The TCP/IP protocol family runs over a variety of network media: IEEE 802.3 (ethernet) and 802.5 (token ring) LAN’s, X.25 lines, satellite links, and serial lines. There are standard encapsulations for IP packets defined for many of these networks, but there is […]

A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams over IEEE 802 Networks  (RFC 1042) The goal of this specification is to allow compatible and interoperable implementations for transmitting IP datagrams and ARP requests and replies.  To achieve this it may be necessary in a few cases to limit the use that IP and ARP make […]

A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams over Ethernet Networks (RFC 894)   This memo applies to the Ethernet (10-megabit/second, 48-bit addresses). The procedure for transmission of IP datagrams on the Experimental Ethernet (3-megabit/second, 8-bit addresses) is described. Frame Format IP datagrams are transmitted in standard Ethernet frames. The type field of the Ethernet […]

LAN Transmission Methods

Posted on | by Telecom and Networking | Leave a Comment on LAN Transmission Methods

LAN Transmission Methods       Transmission of data in LAN transmissions falls into three classifications: unicast, multicast, and broadcast. In each type of transmission, a single packet is sent to one or more nodes. Unicast transmission In a unicast transmission, a single packet is sent from the source to a destination on a network. […]
