Presentation Layer

The presentation layer has functions of translation, encryption, and compression. There are two standard protocol architectures - the OSI reference model and TCP/IP protocol suite, which is most widely used today. The TCP/IP protocol suite has layers including physical, data link, network, transport, and application layers. It defines protocols like FTP, Telnet, SMTP, and HTTP. Port multiplexing allows a single computer to run multiple network applications using different ports, while an ARP cache stores IP to MAC address mappings to reduce broadcast traffic.

Presentation layer

Functions of Presentation Layer


 Translation
 Encryption
 Compression
Standard Protocol Architectures
 Two approaches (standard)
 OSI Reference model
 never used widely
 but well known
 TCP/IP protocol suite
 Most widely used
 Another approach (proprietary)
 IBM’s Systems Network Architecture (SNA)
TCP/IP Protocol Suite
 Transmission Control Protocol /
Internetworking Protocol
 Developed Prior to OSI Model
 Widely used in the Internet Today
 Layers in TCP/IP Protocol Suite
 Physical
 Data Link
 Network
 Transport
 Application
Application layer protocols define the rules when
implementing specific network applications

 Rely on the underlying layers to provide accurate


and efficient data delivery
 Typical protocols:
 FTP – File Transfer Protocol
 For file transfer
 Telnet – Remote terminal protocol
 For remote login on any other computer on the
network
 SMTP – Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
 For mail transferHTTP – Hypertext Transfer Protocol
 For Web browsing
 Domain name hierarchy Example:
hkpu10.polyu.edu.hk Computer name
 Root domain name
 other examples:
 com – commercial company
 org – general organization
 net – major network centre
 gov – government org.
 mil – militrary group
 edu – education org.
 The domain within hk Note: edu.hk is not the
same as eduThe domain within edu.hk One of
the educational institutions in H.K.
A Typical Procedure
 SenderTCP divides a message into
segmentsAdd sequence no.Send the
segments in sequence and wait for
acknowledgementIf an acknowledgement for
a segment is not received for a certain period
of time, resend it until an acknowledgement
is receivedRecipientWhen receiving segments,
send the acknowledgement with correct
numberReassembly the segments back to the
message
Port Multiplexing

 A computer may perform a number of


network applications at the same timeFTP +
SMTP + HTTP, etc.Each computer has only
one network address, how can it serve so
many applications at the same time? by port
multiplexingFTPSMTPPort 25Port 21HTTPPort
80Network add:
ARP Cache
 Will have a heavy traffic if so many ARP
broadcast messages are generatedEach host
will have a cache to store the mappings (from
IP to MAC address) that were obtained
beforeAn entry will only be kept in the cache
for a limited amount of time (say, 2
minutes)IP AddressMAC AddressC AC-1A-
