TCP/IP Configuration

 

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol )





Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is a set of communication protocols that are used to link network devices on the internet. In a private computer network, TCP/IP is also used as a communications protocol (an intranet or extranet).


TCP/IP refers to the full IP suite, which includes a set of rules and processes. TCP and IP are the two most used protocols, although the suite also includes others. Between internet applications and the routing and switching fabric, the TCP/IP protocol suite serves as an abstraction layer.


TCP/IP Configuration in Manual

In this section, you are assumed to have correctly identified the IP address for the Ulearn System Server. Therefore, you must produce a manual on how to configure the IP address on the server. You can use any operating system to demonstrate this task. The explanation should be supported with the screenshot and appropriate explanation.


The Server Configuration Guide explains how to set up networking on the Ulearn System Server.


 Step by step on how to configure the network



STEP 1

Click on Start then search "Control Panel"  and click to open it.


Figure 1: Control Panel


STEP 2

Control Panel > Network and Internet

After that, click on Network and Internet section to view the network status. 


Figure 2: Control Panel GUI 

STEP 3

Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center

Then click on Network and Sharing Center. For more details, here is for set up or configuration network for connection.



Figure 3: Network and Sharing Center Section


STEP 4

Network and sharing Center > click  "change adapter settings"

On the left side, click on "Change adapter setting". All networks will display there.



Figure 4: Network and Sharing Center Section

STEP 5

Click current Wifi > double click Wifi > Click Properties

The currently active network adapter on this host is Kediaman_Pelajar. Select the network adapter by double-clicking it. The status of the network adapter will be displayed. The IPV4 and IPV6 connectivity, as well as the speed, are all visible. To begin assigning a static IP address to this host, click Properties.


Figure 5a: Kediaman_Pelajar Wifi Network Connection


Figure 5b: Wifi status

(Note: that the name of the adaptor isn't necessarily "Kediaman_Pelajar."). Please refer to the name of the network adapter you've connected.)


Properties > Double click "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)"

After selecting "Properties." The Properties of the network adapter interface will be shown. Then, double-click on "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" for setup, as we will require configuring the host's IPV4 address.

STEP 6

Configure manually: IP Address > Subnet Mask > Default Gateaway >DNS Server



Use the following IP address if you want to manually configure the IP address. Based on our calculations, we will also set the subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server (Subnetting Calculation post). For this purpose, we use IP address 52.187.244 for the subnet.

Note: The range of the subnet IP address is from 52.187.244.1 - to 52.187.244.254


 
 Figure 6: TCP/Ipv4 Properties

After that, Click OK


(Additional Step)

We use setup IP address '8.8.8.8' on Alternate DNS Server for Google Backup DNS.

Step 7

Open command prompt (CMD) > type "ipconfig/all" 


To check the configuration we did, open command prompt and enter command ipconfig/all. Here you can see that, IPv4 address, subnet mask, default getaway and DNS server have changed.

SUBNETTING CALCULATION

  SUBNETTING CALCULATION In this part calculate how to identify the Ip address. In 8 faculties, as below: 1.FKP 2.FTMK 3.FPTT 4.FKE 5.FKEKK 6.FKM 7.FTKMP 8.FTKEE   In Utem consider 8 faculties there 8 subnet for the user. Choose class B address type based on cases scenario one faculty nearly 500- 1000 user. We use fixed-length subnet mask(FLSM). This consider one faculty 64 subnet for one faculty nearly 1024 can access the portal. Calculate subnet (FLSM): we assume that LAN use the IP-address start with 172.200.0.0  step 1: defined subnet to be borrowed -  subnet borrow 6 bits - Subnet and host = 6 ,  10   step 2: find the number of subnet needed - Number of subnets:  2 N   - N = number of bits borrow = 2 ^6  = 64   step 3: find the number of subnet mask - Subnet mask: = 6 bits = 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 = 252 =255.255.252.0   step 4: find the total number of host  - Number of hosts:  2 H  - H = number of host on th...

OSI LAYERS MODEL

Image
  WHAT IS OSI MODEL? The OSI model, created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 1984, was meant to demonstrate the flow of data from one software program on one computer to another on another computer. Physical layer, Data link layer, Network layer, Transport layer, Session layer, Presentation layer, and Application layer are the layers that make up the seven-layer architecture of the Internet. It is the responsibility of each layer to carry out its job in a self-contained manner. There have 7 layers in OSI Model PROJECT SCENARIO "The scenario of this project can be referred to Figure 1. Figure 1 shows the logical network flow from a home network to UTeM facilities. In this figure, a UTeM’s student is trying to access the Ulearn system located in the UTeM network facilities. The student is using her modem to connect to the public network before able to connect to the UTeM facilities. From the UTeM network, the data then was forwarded to IT Center where t...
