Minimum Theoretical Background
Protocol:
It
is a set of rules and conventions used for communication between network
devices.
Protocols include mechanisms for devices to identify and make connections with each other, as well as formatting rules that specify how data is packaged into messages sent and received.
Some protocols also support message acknowledgement and data compression designed for reliable and/or high-performance network communication.
It determines the type of error checking to be used. Transmission control protocol (TCP), Internet protocol (IP), Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP), File transfer protocol (FTP) etc.
TCP/IP:
- Transmission Control protocol/internet Protocol, used to connect computers on the Internet or network.
- TCP/IP is built into the UNIX Operating system and is used by the Internet, making it the de facto standard for transmitting data over networks.
- Transmission Control Protocol, manages the assembling of a message or file into smaller packets that are transmitted over the Internet and received by a TCP layer that reassembles the packets into the original message.
- Internet Protocol, handles the address part of each packet so that it gets to the right destination.
- TCP/IP protocols map to a four-layer conceptual model known as the DARPA model, named after the US Government agency that initially developed TCP/IP. The four layers of the DARPA model are: Application, Transport, Internet, and Network Interface.
IP
address:
- An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer) participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication.
- An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device on a TCP/IP network. Two versions of the Internet Protocol (IP) are in use: IP Version4 (IPv4) and IP Version6 (IPv6).
- IPv4 addresses are of 32 bits that are canonically represented in dot-decimal notation, which consists of four decimal numbers, each ranging from 0 to 255, separated by dots, e.g.,172.16.254.1
- IPv6 addresses are of 128 bits that are represented as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits separated by colons. e.g. 2001:0db8:85 a3:0042:1000 :8a2e: 0370:7334
- The IPv4 address space can be subdivided into 5 classes Class A, B, C, D and E. Each class consists of a contiguous subset of the overall IPv4 address range.

X. Procedure
- Complete the following steps to install and configure the TCP/IP protocol.
- Start->Control Panel->Network and Internet->Network Sharing center, Change adapter setting
- Right-click the connection to which you want to add a network component, and then click Properties.
- If Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is listed, skip to Step 6. If Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is not listed, click Install.
- In the Select Network Component Type dialog box, click Protocol, and then click Add.
- From the Network Protocol list, select TCP/IP Protocol and click OK.
- From the General tab (for local area connections) or the Networking tab (for all other connections), select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties.
- Configure TCP/IP either automatically or manually.
Automatically
– You can automatically configure TCP/IP services if you have a DHCP server on your
network. This automatic process ensures easy and accurate installation of
TCP/IP because your local computer is configured with the correct IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway.
To configure
automatically, select Obtain an IP address automatically, and then click OK.
Manually
– You must configure TCP/IP manually if you do not have a DHCP server on your network,
or if you are configuring a Windows server to be a DHCP server. In this case,
you must manually enter valid addressing information after the TCP/IP protocol
software is installed on your computer. To avoid duplicate addresses, be sure
to use the values for IP addresses and subnet masks that are supplied by your
network administrator.
To configure manually,
select Use the following IP address, specify the necessary parameters, and then
click OK.
XI. Precaution
1. Handle Computer
System and peripherals with care
2. Follow Safety Practices
