Link Layer: Introduction Some terminology: “link” r hosts and routers are nodes (bridges and switches too) r communication channels that connect adjacent nodes along communication path are links m m m wired links wireless links LANs r 2 -PDU is a frame, encapsulates datagram data-link layer has responsibility of transferring datagram from one node to adjacent node over a link 5: Data. Link Layer 4
Link layer: context r Datagram transferred by different link protocols over different links: m e. g. , Ethernet on first link, frame relay on intermediate links, 802. 11 on last link r Each link protocol provides different services m e. g. , may or may not provide rdt over link transportation analogy r trip from Princeton to Lausanne m limo: Princeton to JFK m plane: JFK to Geneva m train: Geneva to Lausanne r tourist = datagram r transport segment = communication link r transportation mode = link layer protocol r travel agent = routing algorithm 5: Data. Link Layer 5
Link Layer Services r Framing, link access: m encapsulate datagram into frame, adding header, trailer m channel access if shared medium m ‘physical addresses’ used in frame headers to identify source, dest • different from IP address! r Reliable delivery between adjacent nodes m we learned how to do this already (chapter 3)! m seldom used on low bit error link (fiber, some twisted pair) m wireless links: high error rates • Q: why both link-level and end-end reliability? 5: Data. Link Layer 6
Link Layer Services (more) r Flow Control: m pacing between adjacent sending and receiving nodes r Error Detection: m errors caused by signal attenuation, noise. m receiver detects presence of errors: • signals sender for retransmission or drops frame r Error Correction: m receiver identifies and corrects bit error(s) without resorting to retransmission r Half-duplex and full-duplex m with half duplex, nodes at both ends of link can transmit, but not at same time 5: Data.

Internet checksum Goal: detect “errors” (e. g. , flipped bits) in transmitted segment (note: used at transport layer only) Sender: r treat segment contents as sequence of 16 -bit integers r checksum: addition (1’s complement sum) of segment contents r sender puts checksum value into UDP checksum field Receiver: r compute checksum of received segment r check if computed checksum equals checksum field value: m NO - error detected m YES - no error detected.

Multiple Access protocols r single shared broadcast channel r two or more simultaneous transmissions by nodes: interference m only one node can send successfully at a time multiple access protocol r distributed algorithm that determines how nodes share channel, i. e. , determine when node can transmit r communication about channel sharing must use channel itself! r what to look for in multiple access protocols: 5: Data. Link Layer 17
Ideal Mulitple Access Protocol Broadcast channel of rate R bps 1. When one node wants to transmit, it can send at rate R. 2. When M nodes want to transmit, each can send at average rate R/M 3. Fully decentralized: m m no special node to coordinate transmissions no synchronization of clocks, slots 4. Simple 5: Data. Link Layer 18
MAC Protocols: a taxonomy Three broad classes: r Channel Partitioning m m divide channel into smaller “pieces” (time slots, frequency, code) allocate piece to node for exclusive use r Random Access m channel not divided, allow collisions m “recover” from collisions r “Taking turns” m tightly coordinate shared access to avoid collisions 5: Data. Link Layer 19
Channel Partitioning MAC protocols: TDMA: time division multiple access r access to channel in "rounds" r each station gets fixed length slot (length = pkt trans time) in each round r unused slots go idle r example: 6 -station LAN, 1, 3, 4 have pkt, slots 2, 5, 6 idle 5: Data. Link Layer 20
Channel Partitioning MAC protocols: FDMA: frequency division multiple access r channel spectrum divided into frequency bands r each station assigned fixed frequency band r unused transmission time in frequency bands go idle r example: 6 -station LAN, 1, 3, 4 have pkt, frequency bands 2, 5, 6 idle frequency bands time 5: Data. Link Layer 21
Channel Partitioning (CDMA) CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) r unique “code” assigned to each user; i. e. , code set partitioning r used mostly in wireless broadcast channels (cellular, satellite, r r etc) all users share same frequency, but each user has own “chipping” sequence (i. e. , code) to encode data encoded signal = (original data) X (chipping sequence) decoding: inner-product of encoded signal and chipping sequence allows multiple users to “coexist” and transmit simultaneously with minimal interference (if codes are “orthogonal”) 5: Data. Link Layer 22

CDMA: two-sender interference 5: Data. Link Layer 24
Random Access Protocols r When node has packet to send m transmit at full channel data rate R. m no a priori coordination among nodes r two or more transmitting nodes -> “collision”, r random access MAC protocol specifies: m how to detect collisions m how to recover from collisions (e. g. , via delayed retransmissions) r Examples of random access MAC protocols: m slotted ALOHA m CSMA, CSMA/CD, CSMA/CA 5: Data. Link Layer 25
Slotted ALOHA Assumptions r all frames same size r time is divided into equal size slots, time to transmit 1 frame r nodes start to transmit frames only at beginning of slots r nodes are synchronized r if 2 or more nodes transmit in slot, all nodes detect collision Operation r when node obtains fresh frame, it transmits in next slot r no collision, node can send new frame in next slot r if collision, node retransmits frame in each subsequent slot with prob. p until success 5: Data. Link Layer 26
Slotted ALOHA Pros r single active node can continuously transmit at full rate of channel r highly decentralized: only slots in nodes need to be in sync r simple Cons r collisions, wasting slots r idle slots r nodes may be able to detect collision in less than time to transmit packet 5: Data. Link Layer 27
Slotted Aloha efficiency Efficiency is the long-run fraction of successful slots when there’s many nodes, each with many frames to send r Suppose N nodes with many frames to send, each transmits in slot with probability p r prob that 1 st node has success in a slot = p(1 -p)N-1 r prob that any node has a success = Np(1 -p)N-1 r For max efficiency with N nodes, find p* that maximizes Np(1 -p)N-1 r For many nodes, take limit of Np*(1 -p*)N-1 as N goes to infinity, gives 1/e =. 37 At best: channel used for useful transmissions 37% of time! 5: Data. Link Layer 28
Pure (unslotted) ALOHA r unslotted Aloha: simpler, no synchronization r when frame first arrives m transmit immediately r collision probability increases: m frame sent at t 0 collides with other frames sent in [t 0 -1, t 0+1] 5: Data. Link Layer 29
Pure Aloha efficiency P(success by given node) = P(node transmits). P(no other node transmits in [p 0 -1, p 0] = p. (1 -p)N-1 = p. (1 -p)2(N-1) … choosing optimum p and then letting n -> infty. . . = 1/(2 e) =. 18 Even worse ! 5: Data. Link Layer 30
CSMA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access) CSMA: listen before transmit: r If channel sensed idle: transmit entire frame r If channel sensed busy, defer transmission r Human analogy: don’t interrupt others! 5: Data. Link Layer 31
CSMA collisions spatial layout of nodes collisions can still occur: propagation delay means two nodes may not hear each other’s transmission collision: entire packet transmission time wasted note: role of distance & propagation delay in determining collision probability 5: Data. Link Layer 32
CSMA/CD (Collision Detection) CSMA/CD: carrier sensing, deferral as in CSMA m collisions detected within short time m colliding transmissions aborted, reducing channel wastage r collision detection: m easy in wired LANs: measure signal strengths, compare transmitted, received signals m difficult in wireless LANs: receiver shut off while transmitting r human analogy: the polite conversationalist 5: Data. Link Layer 33
CSMA/CD collision detection 5: Data. Link Layer 34
“Taking Turns” MAC protocols channel partitioning MAC protocols: m share channel efficiently and fairly at high load m inefficient at low load: delay in channel access, 1/N bandwidth allocated even if only 1 active node! Random access MAC protocols m efficient at low load: single node can fully utilize channel m high load: collision overhead “taking turns” protocols look for best of both worlds! 5: Data.

Link Layer 42
ARP: Address Resolution Protocol Question: how to determine MAC address of B knowing B’s IP address? r Each IP node (Host, Router) on LAN has ARP table r ARP Table: IP/MAC address mappings for some LAN nodes < IP address; MAC address; TTL> m TTL (Time To Live): time after which address mapping will be forgotten (typically 20 min) 5: Data. Link Layer 43
ARP protocol r A wants to send datagram to B, and A knows B’s IP address. r Suppose B’s MAC address is not in A’s ARP table. r A broadcasts ARP query packet, containing B's IP address m all machines on LAN receive ARP query r B receives ARP packet, replies to A with its (B's) MAC address m frame sent to A’s MAC address (unicast) r A caches (saves) IP-to- MAC address pair in its ARP table until information becomes old (times out) m soft state: information that times out (goes away) unless refreshed r ARP is “plug-and-play”: m nodes create their ARP tables without intervention from net administrator 5: Data.

Ethernet Frame Structure (more) r Addresses: 6 bytes m if adapter receives frame with matching destination address, or with broadcast address (eg ARP packet), it passes data in frame to net-layer protocol m otherwise, adapter discards frame r Type: indicates the higher layer protocol, mostly IP but others may be supported such as Novell IPX and Apple. Talk) r CRC: checked at receiver, if error is detected, the frame is simply dropped 5: Data. Link Layer 49
Unreliable, connectionless service r Connectionless: No handshaking between sending and receiving adapter. r Unreliable: receiving adapter doesn’t send acks or nacks to sending adapter m m m stream of datagrams passed to network layer can have gaps will be filled if app is using TCP otherwise, app will see the gaps 5: Data. Link Layer 50
Ethernet uses CSMA/CD r No slots r adapter doesn’t transmit if it senses that some other adapter is transmitting, that is, carrier sense r transmitting adapter aborts when it senses that another adapter is transmitting, that is, collision detection r Before attempting a retransmission, adapter waits a random time, that is, random access 5: Data.

Ethernet CSMA/CD algorithm 1. Adaptor gets datagram 4. If adapter detects from and creates frame another transmission while transmitting, aborts and 2. If adapter senses channel sends jam signal idle, it starts to transmit frame. If it senses 5. After aborting, adapter channel busy, waits until enters exponential channel idle and then backoff: after the mth transmits collision, adapter chooses a K at random from 3. If adapter transmits {0, 1, 2, …, 2 m-1}. Adapter entire frame without waits K*512 bit times and detecting another returns to Step 2 transmission, the adapter is done with frame ! 5: Data.

Exponential Backoff: r Goal: adapt retransmission attempts to estimated current load m heavy load: random wait will be longer r first collision: choose K from {0, 1}; delay is K x 512 bit transmission times r after second collision: choose K from {0, 1, 2, 3}… r after ten collisions, choose K from {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, …, 1023} 5: Data.
