<hr>

<p>This course will give both practical and general knowledge on the
<em>protocols</em> that are the basis of the Internet. After this
course you should have a good knowledge about Internet protocols and
internetworking architecture. You should have a general knowledge
aiding you in reading research and standardization documents in the
area.
</p>

<h3>Learning Outcomes</h3>

<P>Following this course a student should be able to:
<ul>

<li>Understand the principles on which internetworking is based -
which define the Internet (both what it is and why it has proven to be
so succesful)</li>

<LI>Understand TCP/IP protocol stack, layering, encapsulation and multiplexing
<ul>
<li>Understand multiplexing, demultiplexing, upward and downward
multiplexing</li>

<li>Encapsulation as used for Mobile IP, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs),
IP security, ... and other tunnelling protocols</li>

<li>Understand how information is encoded in headers and how the choice
of this encoding and field size may effect the use and evolution of a
protocol</li>

<li>Understand how data is encoded in the body of a packet and
how this may effect internetworking - especially in the presence of
firewall and network address translators.</li>
</ul>

<li>Understand IP Addressing, subnetting and address resolution -
including the interaction of protocols across layers</li>

<li>Understand a number of higher layer protocols including the
security risks and performance limitations of each </li>

<li>Understand the basic details of routing and routing protocols
(RIP, BGP, OSPF) - with an emphasis on their limitations and
behaviors</li>

<li>Understand autoconfiguration and naming (BOOTP, DHCP, DNS, DDNS,
DNSsec, ENUM, ... ) - with an emphasis on risks, limitations, scaling,
and evolution</li>

<li>Understand the nature and pressures on the design and operations
of internets - particularily on scaling, performance, delay bounds,
due to new Internet applications (VoIP, streaming, games,
peer-to-peer, etc.</li>

<li>Understand the advantages and disadvantages of IPv6 (in comparison
to IPv4)</li>

<li>Read the current literature at the level of conference papers in this area.
<ul>
<li>While you may not be able to understand all of the papers in
journals, magazines, and conferences in this area - you
<b>should</b> be able to read 90% or more of them
and have good comprehension. In this area it is especially
important that develop a habit of reading the journals, trade papers,
etc. <i>In addition, you should also be aware of both standardization
activities, new products/services, and public policy in the area.</i></li>
</ul>
</li>

<li>Demonstrate knowledge of this area in writing.
<ul>
<li>By <i>writing</i> a paper suitable for submission
to a trade paper or national conference in the area.</li>
</ul></li>

<h2>Some useful information for writing your reports</h2>
<ul>
<LI>For your document, you should be sure to use A4
sized paper rather than US letter.</LI>

<LI>For those using LaTeX, you can improve the look of the document by:
<ul><li>switching to using PostScipt fonts
<A href="http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/required/psnfss/psnfss2e.pdf">(instructions)</A></li>

<li>You can also turn off hyphenation or at least limit its use
with "\hyphenpenalty=5000 \tolerance=1000"</li>
<li><a href="http://webcapita.com/w3cbib/by-year">BibTex entries</a> for W3C publications</li>
<li><a href="http://www.tm.uka.de/~bless/bibrfcindex.html">BibTex entries</a> for RFCs</li>
<li>IEEE and ACM provide BibTeX entires for their publcations
via the web page for each publication</li>
<li>Use the <a href="http://www.tug.org/texlive/Contents/live/texmf-dist/doc/latex/bytefield/bytefield.pdf">
bytefield</a> package to draw packet structures</li>
</ul></LI>

<li>For those using Microsoft's Word: It is possible to convert .bib a suitable format using <a
href="http://jabref.sourceforge.net/">JabRef</a>. (see also
<a href="http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Programs">http://wiki.lyx.org/BibTeX/Programs</a>)</li>

<li>
I encourage students to use <a href="http://www.zotero.org">Zotero</a> for
their reference management. Of course you can also use a commercial
tool or other tool. The key is that you should be using a tool to
facilitate working with your references and reference material. You
can find examples of using Zotero in my II2202 lecture notes on
<a href="http://www.ict.kth.se/courses/II2202/II2202-powertools-chip-20110827.pdf">
powertools</a>. I encourage you to use my Zotero style <a href="http://www.ict.kth.se/courses/II2202/IEEElike-with-access.csl">
IEEElike-with-access</a> as it provides a rather complete reference
(including DOI, ISBN, or URL where relevant).
There are Zotero plugins for OpenOffice/LibreOffice and Microsoft's Word.</li>

</ul>

<h2>Some common flaws in reports</h2>

<UL>
<li>Incomplete references - see the references in the lecture notes
for examples of references</li>
<li>Missing important citations</li>
<li>Statements made without justification or supporting citations</li>
<li>Poor (or no) editing</li>
<li>Failure to spell check the document</li>
<li>Documents which it is clear that no one looked at after formatting
- often these have breaks in the middle of sentences, missing phrases,
... .</li>

<li>Lack of page numbers</li>
<li>Unreadable text in figures</li>
<li>Failure to label elements of figures adequately</li>
<li>Use of contractions</li>
<li>Use of acronyms or abbreviations without properly introducing
them; often failure to use these acroynms and abbreviations
consistently through the rest of the paper</li>
<li>Redundant text</li>
<li>Using figures from others without the copyright owner's permission</li>
<li>Using too few refences, so the paper looks like simply a cut an
paste edit of these references.</li>
<li>Single sentence paragraphs</li>
<li>Lack of vertical white space between paragraphs, which in some
cases makes it hard to understand where new paragraphs beging</li>
<li>Lack of a date - every document should have a date, in addition to title and author(s)</li>
<li>Lack of section, subsection, ... number - makes cross references
difficult (i.e., using hierarchically numbered headings)</li>
</UL>

<p>To cite the source of a figure that you have been inspired by you can say:
"Figure xxx: yyyyyyyyyyy (adapted from figure zzz of [z])"<br>

For examples slides: 1:43 (PDF page 86), 1:72 (PDF page 115), 6:19 (PDF page 401), and 13:62 (PDF page 841). of http://www.ict.kth.se/courses/IK1550/Internetworking-2013.pdf</p>

<p>It is also possible to directly include figures from others but on <b>if they have given you permission</b>, they you say what they required you to say when they gave you permission, for example:<br>
Figure xxx: yyyyyyyyyyy (Appears here with the permission of ZZZZ. The figure originally appeared as figure xxx on page ww of [z].)</p>

<h3>Grading</h3>

<P>A very good paper should be either a very good review or present a
new idea, while an outstanding or excellent paper should be truely innovative.</P>

<h4>ECTS grades</h4>

<ul>
<li>To get an "A" you need to write an outstanding or excellent paper.</li>

<li>To get a "B" you need to write a very good paper, i.e., it should be
either a very good review or present a new idea.</li>

<li>To get a "C" you need to write a paper which shows that you understand
the basic ideas underlying internetworking and that you understand one
(or more) particular aspects at the level of an average undergraduate
student in the area.</li>

<li>To get a "D" you need to demonstrate that you understand the basic
ideas underlying internetworking, however, your depth of
knowledge is shallow in the topic of your paper.</li>

<li>If your paper has some errors (including incomplete references) the grade will be an "E".</li>

<li>If your paper has serious errors the grade will be an "F".</li>
</ul>

<p>If your paper is close to passing, but not at the passing level, then
you will be offered the opportunity for "komplettering", i.e.,
students whose written paper does not pass can submit a revised
version of their paper (or a completely new paper) - which will be
evaluated.</p>

<h3>Code of Honor and Regulations</h3>

<p>It is KTH policy that there is zero tolerance for cheating, plagiarism, etc. - for details see
