TCP - Part I. Relates to Lab 5. First module on TCP which covers packet format, data transfer, and connection management. Overview. TCP = Transmission Control Protocol Connection-oriented protocol Provides a reliable unicast end-to-end byte stream over an unreliable internetwork.

TCP = Transmission Control Protocol
TCP segments have a 20 byte header with >= 0 bytes of data.
0 <= SeqNo <= 232 -1 4.3 Gbyte
Q: What are possible requirements for ISN ?
a segment from A -> B can contain an acknowledgement for a data sent in the B -> A direction
Q: Why is piggybacking good ?
Assume: Sender sends two segments with “1..1500” and “1501..3000”, but receiver only gets the second segment.
In this case, the receiver cannot acknowledge the second packet. It can only send AckNo=1
SeqNo <= urgent message <= SeqNo+urgent pointer
Q: What is the different interpretation ?
(1) ACTIVE OPEN: Client sends a segment with
(2) PASSIVE OPEN: Server responds with a segment with
(3) Client acknowledges by sending a segment with:

Will be discarded as a duplicate SYN
When aida initiates the data transfer (starting with SeqNo=15322112355), mng will reject all data.
(1) X sends a FIN to Y (active close)
(2) Y ACKs the FIN,
(at this time: Y can still send data to X)
(3) and Y sends a FIN to X (passive close)
(4) X ACKs the FIN.
