Students

For the last 8 years I have been lecturing to community college students at the H. Lavity Stoutt Community College. Although my area of expertise is databases and web design, I also lecture in the areas of computer networking and Java programming.

This area of my website is dedicated to my students. From here they can view and print handouts from classes that they may have missed or lost the handouts to. There is also an area where I publish papers that I write from time on issues pertinent to the field and of use to students.

 

Handout 8 - The TCP/IP Protocol Suite

The TCP/IP Protocol Suite

The TCP/IP suite was developed by the Department of Defence (DOD) before the OSI Model, and consequently it does not map directly onto the OSI Model. However, it does map closely to the layers of the OSI Model.

Handout 6 - Network Protocols

Network Protocols and the OSI Model

Information is transmitted from one communications device to another over a communications medium. The information is sent over this medium in what is called packets or frames, each packet or frame represents part of (or a piece of) the information to be sent – the information to be sent is broken up into packets or frames, sent over the medium, received at the other end, re-assembled, and then reconstructed to form the original information that was sent.
