This project demonstrates a reliable transport protocol using the Go-Back-N (GBN) protocol over UDP. The GBN protocol improves UDP's reliability by allowing the sender to transmit multiple packets ...

This section is about UDP. Firstly, we are going to present the control information in UDP header, then we give details of the algorithm that we are suggesting to improve reliability of some control ...

Many in the networking industry may not be aware that SCTP exists and the benefits that it provides end-to-end Internet communications. We use TCP over IP for most unicast communications and the ...

This project implements a custom TCP-like protocol over UDP to provide reliable data transfer. While UDP is inherently unreliable and does not guarantee packet delivery, ordering, or data integrity, ...

All too often we shy away from the depths of IP protocols, leaving the application vendors such as Microsoft; Wowza Media Systems, LLC; RealNetworks, Inc.; Adobe Systems, Inc.; and others with more ...

In this tutorial we will discuss the concept of Ports and how they work with IP addresses. If you have not read our article on IP addresses and need a brush up, you can find the article here. If you ...

TCP/IP is a layered networking protocol, which means that packets of data from the application are passed through several stages, or layers, until they move onto the wire as pulses or into the air as ...

You've installed a VPN. It's not quite as fast as you'd like. You could switch to another service, but maybe there's a simple speedup trick you can try first. Open ...
