Case Study 1:

Web server is a special computer system running on HTTP through web pages. The web
page is a medium to carry data from one computer system to another. The working of
the webserver starts from the client or user. The client sends their request through the
web browser to the webserver. Web server takes this request, processes it and then
sends back processed data to the client. The server gathers all of our web page
information and sends it to the user, which we see on our computer system in the form
of a web page. When the client sends a request for processing to the web server, a
domain name and IP address are important to the webserver. The domain name and IP
address are used to identify the user on a large network.

In mid 80’s another federal agency, the NSF created a new high capacity network called
NSFnet, which was more capable than ARPANET. The only drawback of NSFnet was that
it allowed only academic research on its network and not any kind of private business on
it. Now, several private organisations and people started working to build their own
networks, named private networks, which were later (in 1990’s) connected with
ARPANET and NSFnet to form the Internet. The Internet really became popular in 1990’s

Case Study 3:
TCP/IP, or the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, is a suite of
communication protocols used to interconnect network devices on the internet. TCP/IP
can also be used as a communications protocol in a private computer network (an
intranet or an extranet).

TCP defines how applications can create channels of communication across a network.
It also manages how a message is assembled into smaller packets before they are then
transmitted over the internet and reassembled in the right order at the destination
address.

IP defines how to address and route each packet to make sure it reaches the right
destination. Each gateway computer on the network checks this IP address to determine
where to forward the message. TCP/IP uses the client-server model of communication
in which a user or machine (a client) is provided a service (like sending a webpage) by
another computer (a server) in the network. Collectively, the TCP/IP suite of protocols is
classified as stateless, which means each client request is considered new because it is
unrelated to previous requests. Being stateless frees up network paths so they can be
used continuously.
