U1L10 - Routers and Redundacy

  • Getting Started
  • Activity
  • Introduce: New Version of the Internet Simulator - Routers
  • Today's activity introduces the newest incarnation of the Internet Simulator
    • Messages now have “To” and “From” addresses in a format similar to IP addresses (just an 8-bit address instead of a full 32 bits)
    • This allows messages to be sent to a single intended recipient.
    • The Internet Simulator also simulates the routing of messages across a network, with messages possibly being routed across multiple routers in unpredictable sequences before finally being delivered.
    • This is done to simulate the way traffic travelling across the Internet is constantly rebalanced in response to over- or under-usage of some channels.
    • A message will usually make it to its destination, but we can't know for sure how it will get there.
  • Activity: Investigate Routed Traffic
  • Find a friend's IP address.
  • Have a short conversation.
  • Analyze the traffic using the "router logs" to learn something about the structure of the Internet and answer questions.
    • First time: this is done with classmates on the same router.
    • Second time: students communicate with classmates on a different router.
  • Wrap-up
  • Routers and Redundancy - Activity Guide.
  • Assessment

U1L11 Packets and Making a Reliable Internet

  • Getting Started (5-20 mins)
  • Prompt:
    Your friend sent you a message on the Internet, but you never received it. Based on what you already know about routers and the physical Internet, list what reasons might explain this fact.
  • Optional Unplugged Activity (15 mins)
  • Activity (35 mins)
  • You will only be allowed to send packets containing 8 characters of text!
  • Anything larger than 8 characters will be cut off...
  • However, you may construct multiple packets prior to sending them, by clicking "Add Packet", and then send them all with one click of the "Send" button.
  • Every message has a small chance of being dropped on each “hop” it makes between routers.
  • Introduce: new version of Internet Simulator - packets and unreliability.
  • Packets and Making a Reliable Internet - Activity Guide
  • Generate Traffic
  • Develop a Protocol
  • All communication can only be done through the Internet Simulator.
  • The full message sent will be at least 80 characters long - broken into at least 10 packets - and might be entirely random (i.e. there’s no way to use human intuition to reconstruct the message).
    • The message is not known beforehand.
  • The sender and receiver must be confident the full message was successfully transmitted and reconstructed.
  • Test Protocols
  • Provide students an opportunity to either present their protocols in written or visual form, or test them out by sending a randomly generated message of your choosing.
  • The goal of this share-out would be to identify the main components of the protocols that groups developed in common.
  • Wrap-up (10 mins)
  • Video: The Internet: Packets, Routing, and Reliability
  • The Internet: Packets, Routing, and Reliability - Video
  • Connect activity to TCP
  • Assessment
  • Extended Learning
  • There and Back Again: A Packet’s Journey and discuss questions that arise about how a packet travels from one person to another. (3:21)
  • Easy Way to Understand Packets. Note: Headphones are recommended; this one has some dramatic music! (13:00)
  • Look at IETF Requests for Comment (RFCs): Protocols are developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (among other groups), who publish Requests for Comment (or RFCs) detailing the components of the protocol. If students wish, they may have a look at the one of the actual RFCs for TCP here https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc793.txt. RFCs exist for many of the protocols covered in this course.

Plan a trip to see a sporting/entertainment event abroad. Your budget is up to you. Make sure you use the currency converter here to tell me what this trip and all its elements would cost in the currency of the nation you choose to visit. You will turn in two printed elements, a ppt. summary of the trip, including a description of what you plan to do, eat, pay for, see, etc. and a budget (excel) that shows how you spent your money. (Include both US Dollars and amounts in the currency of the country visited.)
 This should be a trip of a lifetime, spare no expense!! 
NOTE:  You may not purchase any durable goods while on this trip. You also may not transport goods to/from your destination by any transportation method. All money spent should be spent on goods/services that allow you to enjoy your trip and make your trip more fun and interesting.
