Packet Guide to Core Network Protocols

---

Basic network architecture and construction is a good starting point when trying to understand how communication systems function, even though the topic is a bit dull. Architectures are typically based on a model showing how protocols and functions fit together. Historically, there have been many models used for this purpose, including, but not limited to, Systems Network Architecture (SNA-IBM), AppleTalk, Novell Net- ware (IPX/SPX), and the Open System Interconnection (OSI). Most of these have gone the way of the dodo due to the popularity of TCP/IP. TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, and represents a suite of protocols used on almost all modern communication systems. As the name suggests, this is the language of the Internet. This chapter focuses on the practical TCP/IP model, using the OSI model as a reference point.
