![FTP.
β’ The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer
computer files between a client and server on a computer network. FTP is built on a
client-server model architecture and uses separate control and data connections
between the client and the server.
β’ The first FTP client applications were command-line programs developed before
operating systems had graphical user interfaces, and are still shipped with most
Windows, Unix, and Linux operating systems.[2][3] Many FTP clients and
automation utilities have since been developed for desktops, servers, mobile devices,
and hardware, and FTP has been incorporated into productivity applications, such
as web page editors.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/introductiontointernet-160529142151/85/Introduction-to-internet-8-320.jpg)
Introduction to internet.
- 2. PROTOCOLS β’ Protocols refers to the βrulesβ on which the internet works.
- 3. THE INTERNET PROTOCOL. β’ The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. β’ IP has the task of delivering packets from the source host to the destination host solely based on the IP addresses in the packet headers. For this purpose, IP defines packet structures that encapsulate the data to be delivered. It also defines addressing methods that are used to label the datagram with source and destination information.
- 4. β’ Historically, IP was the connectionless datagram service in the original Transmission Control Program introduced by Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn in 1974; the other being the connection-oriented Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The Internet protocol suite is therefore often referred to as TCP/IP. β’ The first major version of IP, Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4), is the dominant protocol of the Internet. Its successor is Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6
- 5. SMTP. β’ Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is an Internet standard for electronic mail (email) transmission. First defined by RFC 821 in 1982, it was last updated in 2008 with the Extended SMTP additions by RFC 5321βwhich is the protocol in widespread use today. β’ SMTP by default uses TCP port 25. The protocol for mail submission is the same, but uses port 587. SMTP connections secured by SSL, known as SMTPS, default to port 465 (nonstandard, but sometimes used for legacy reasons).
- 6. β’ Although electronic mail servers and other mail transfer agents use SMTP to send and receive mail messages, user-level client mail applications typically use SMTP only for sending messages to a mail server for relaying. For retrieving messages, client applications usually use either POP3 or IMAP. β’ Although proprietary systems (such as Microsoft Exchange and IBM Notes) and webmail systems (such as Outlook.com, Gmail and Yahoo! Mail) use their own non-standard protocols to access mail box accounts on their own mail servers, all use SMTP when sending or receiving email from outside their own systems.
- 7. HTTP. β’ The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is an application protocol for distributed, collaborative, hypermedia information systems. HTTP is the foundation of data communication for the World Wide Web. Hypertext is structured text that uses logical links (hyperlinks) between nodes containing text.
- 8. FTP. β’ The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer computer files between a client and server on a computer network. FTP is built on a client-server model architecture and uses separate control and data connections between the client and the server. β’ The first FTP client applications were command-line programs developed before operating systems had graphical user interfaces, and are still shipped with most Windows, Unix, and Linux operating systems.[2][3] Many FTP clients and automation utilities have since been developed for desktops, servers, mobile devices, and hardware, and FTP has been incorporated into productivity applications, such as web page editors.
- 9. HOW THE INTERNET WORKS. β’ When the information is passed from one computer to the other, it is broken down into pieces called packets using the tcp protocol. Using the IP protocol, a message consisting of not more than 1500 bytes is put into packets. Each packet has the address of the sender and the receiver. These addresses are called IP address.
- 10. URL. β’ A Uniform Resource Locator (URL), commonly informally termed a web address (which term is not defined identically)is a reference to a web resource that specifies its location on a computer network and a mechanism for retrieving it. A URL is a specific type of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI),although many people use the two terms interchangeably. A URL implies the means to access an indicated resource, which is not true of every URI. URLs occur most commonly to reference web pages (http), but are also used for file transfer (ftp), email (mailto), database access (JDBC), and many other applications. β’ Most web browsers display the URL of a web page above the page in an address bar. A typical URL could have the form http://www.example.com/index.html, which indicates a protocol (http), a hostname (www.example.com), and a file name (index.html).
- 11. SERVICE β’ The first part of the URL is the service specifier which specifies the access method specifically. This is the part before colon.
- 12. ADDRESS AND PORT NUMBER. β’ The second part is the Internet address of the sever, indicated by the double forward slash. This address can also contain the port number the service lists at. β’ Resource Location :- β’ Resource Location And Discovery (RELOAD) is a peer-to-peer (P2P) signalling protocol for use on the Internet. A P2P signalling protocol provides its clients with an abstract storage and messaging service between a set of cooperating peers that form the overlay network.
- 13. ABSOLUTE & RELATIVE URL. β’ An absolute URL contains all the information necessary to locate a resource. β’ A relative URL locates a resource using an absolute URL as a starting point. In effect, the "complete URL" of the target is specified by concatenating the absolute and relative URLs. β’ An absolute URL uses the following format: scheme://server/path/resource β’ A relative URL typically consists only of the path, and optionally, the resource, but no scheme or server. The following tables define the individual parts of the complete URL format.
