Protocols
Definition
A set of formalized rules that
describe how data is transmitted
over a network.
Internet transmission
protocols
• TCP/IP - Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol
• A recognised set of protocols transmission
protocol for all Internet transmission.
• TCP divides a message into blocks of data, called
packets
TCP/IP
• TCP divides a message into blocks of
data called packets
• A router then forwards these
packets to a destination device
Message
Packet 1
Packet 2
Packet 3
Packet 4
TCP/IP Advantages
• Industrial Standard
• Routable – can be sent through many
different types of routers
• Robust – used for many years
• Scalable – can be used small & large
networks.
Internet protocols
IP provides routing devices – special
electronic switches – with the source and
destination web addresses, which are used
to connect the Internet user with the web
server. The routing device then forwards
the packets to the destination address.
IP Addresses
- The internet connects millions of different
network hardware hosts
- Each host – computer, router, printer is
identified by a unique IP address

the IP address of your own computer
IP Addresses
- Using http://www.hostip.info/ find out where

5. What is an IP address and what does it look like?
IP Addresses
The Internet connects millions of different
network hardware components together (host).
Each host – computer, router, printer, etc – is
identified by a unique Internet Protocol Address,
or IP address.
An IP address appears as a dotted decimal
number.
Internet Service
Protocols
1. HTTP (HyperText
Transfer Protocol)
• HTTP is the service protocol that
allows users to receive information
from the World Wide Web.
• HTTP protocol identifies and
downloads web page resources
HTML tags
HyperText Markup Language - a set
of codes and script that allows web
pages to be formatted and designed
Quiz
2. File Transfer Protocol
File Transfer Protocol allows an
Internet user to send (or receive)
copies of files from or to different
computer systems or networks
3. POP/SMTP
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used
to transfer e-mail between computer
systems.
- Incoming e-mail is stored on the
ISP’s server.
- It deals with outgoing emails
3. POP
• Post Office Protocol is also used to
transfer e-mails between computer
systems. POP offers more facilities than
SMTP and allows automatic download of emails.
• POP is the receiving system for most
Internet-based e-mail systems (i.e. your
incoming mail).
Questions 2
• What does POP stand for? Post Office Protocol

Network Strategy
• An organisation needs a network strategy initially
to plan how to set up the network in general to
manage effectively its distribution of data and
information to assist its decision-making and
general operation. The network strategy should
be based on sound fundamentals so that no matter
the advances in technology the network will be
able to adapt and still deliver the services the
organisation requires. The strategy needs to
address the following areas:
• Data transfer (traffic)
• Distribution/coverage
• Access and security
• Facilities
• Storage capacity.
Backup and recovery
strategy
• An organisation needs a backup and
recovery strategy to ensure that
operational data is not accidentally
destroyed or damaged. As organisations
rely more and more on information systems
to store and process their data, it is vital
that processes and procedures are
introduced to ensure data is kept safe
from loss or harm.
