clients:
communicate with server
client/server may be intermittently
connected
may have dynamic IP
addresses
do not communicate directly
with each other
Application Layer 2-7
P2P architecture
no always-on server peer-peer
arbitrary end systems
directly communicate
peers request service from
other peers, provide service
in return to other peers
self scalability – new
peers bring new service
capacity, as well as new
service demands
peers are intermittently
connected and change IP
addresses
complex management

Application Example:
1. Client reads a line of characters (data) from its
keyboard and sends the data to the server.
2. The server receives the data and converts
characters to uppercase.
3. The server sends the modified data to the client.
4. The client receives the modified data and displays
the line on its screen.
Application Layer 2-67
Socket programming with UDP
UDP: no “connection” between client & server
no handshaking before sending data
sender explicitly attaches IP destination address and
port # to each packet
rcvr extracts sender IP address and port# from
received packet
UDP: transmitted data may be lost or received
out-of-order
Application viewpoint:
UDP provides unreliable transfer of groups of bytes
(“datagrams”) between client and server
write reply to
serverSocket read datagram from
specifying clientSocket
client address,
port number close
clientSocket
Application 2-69
Example app: UDP client
Python UDPClient
include Python’s socket
library
from socket import *
serverName = ‘hostname’
serverPort = 12000
create UDP socket for clientSocket = socket(socket.AF_INET,
server
write reply to
connectionSocket read reply from
clientSocket
close
connectionSocket close
clientSocket
sentence = connectionSocket.recv(1024)
read bytes from socket (but
not address as in UDP) capitalizedSentence = sentence.upper()
close connection to this connectionSocket.send(capitalizedSentence)
client (but not welcoming
socket) connectionSocket.close()
