TCP/IP Home Page

This page is the home page for CS 594/494 "Internetworking Protocols" (TCP/IP). It serves to tie together various class facilities including the syllabus, assignments, handouts, and on-line lecture slides. In general, it is intended for the use of the PSU/CS TCP/IP class and will have links to documents useful for the class. For quarters when the class is taught, it describes the current class. Otherwise it refers to the last class taught.

    Assignments

    Hint to the alert student. Make sure the assignment is actually issued and that you have the right one, before you go and do it. Doing the wrong assignment can be bad for both health and grade.

  • a1 - udp/reliable protocol
  • a2 - tcp/simple rpc file system
  • another a2 - simple ftp/tcp-based client
  • another a2 - simple irc-like client/server system

  • Study Questions

    Various study questions will be posted to the class mail list as the class proceeds over a quarter. They are currently not organized in a nice clickable list, but hopefully you can find the appropriate set of questions as we go along in the course.
