1. TCP is a reliable transport protocol. Research the TCP protocol and choose one TCP topic and prepare a tutorial, detailed instructions on the use of an IP related topic . Please do not discuss any security issues this week. TCP security will be discussed later. ***Here is a list of topics:
• TCP error control mechanism (e.g., delayed packets, duplicate packets, retransmission, etc.).
• TCP Flow control mechanism.
• TCP congestion control mechanism.
• TCP state transition diagram.
2. IP is the primary network (layer 3) protocol that contains addressing information and some control information to enable packets being routed in network. prepare a tutorial which consists of detailed instructions on the use of an IP related topic (e.g., IP addressing scheme, IP routing protocols, various IP technologies, and many more) that you think important or interesting. Do not discuss any security issues this week. TCP/IP security will be discussed in a later conference.
3. Compare and contrast the differences between Unix (or Linux) and Window Traceroute. All the codes for each ICMP error message are not fully listed and describeed.
Identify a few scenarios in which ICMP error messages are generated? What available tools employ ICMP or Traceroute? What are the advantages/disadvantages of such tools?
