The Internet What Is It?

•The Internet is a global collection of networks big and small

•These networks connect together in many different ways to form the single entity known as the Internet

•Since its beginning in 1969, the Internet has grown from four host computer systems to tens of millions

•The Internet is public and monitored and maintained in many different ways

•The Internet Society, a non-profit group established in 1992, oversees the formations of the polices and protocols that define how we use and interact with the Internet

How Reliable is IP Communications?

•IP communications are very reliable

•IP communications can occur over the Internet or over a WAN

•Communications over a WAN are as reliable as the network

•When communicating over the Internet multiple paths are available from the transmitting point to the receiving point

Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data

There are many different broadband technologies that allow us to transmit IP data from one location to another using the Internet and the methods and means are increasing as is the speed that the data can be transferred. Here are some methods.

Cable:

Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data

xDSL:

ADSL works by splitting the phone line into two frequency ranges. The frequencies below 4kHz are reserved for voice, and the range

above that is used for data

Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data

Two-Way Satellite:

A signal is sent from a dish mounted at your site to a satellite in orbit around the Earth this is then bounced down to a ground station connected to the Internet.

Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data

Microwave:

A signal is sent from an antenna mounted at your site to an antenna located at the provider site which is connected to the Internet. Microwave requires a direct line of site.

Different Technologies for Transmitting IP Data

WiMax / Wi-Fi:

IP Protocols UDP vs. TCP

What is the difference?

UDP: User Datagram Protocol

• Connectionless

• Delivery guaranteed by the application

• Less bandwidth

• Requires NAT/PAT support

TCP: Transmission Control Protocol

• Connection oriented

• Delivery guaranteed by the network

• Higher bandwidth

• Requires NAT to establish connection

IP Protocols UDP vs. TCP

Connectionless: What is the difference?

UDP

• Single data packets

• Denial Of Service Attacks not affected

• Support more accounts

TCP

• Multiple packets to establish the connection

• Denial of Service Attacks can be a problem

• Support fewer accounts

IP Protocols UDP vs. TCP

Delivery: What is the difference?

UDP

• Application is responsible for the delivery and acknowledgements

• Less overhead on the network

• NAT/PAT responsible for all routing

TCP

• Network is responsible for the delivery and acknowledgements

• More network overhead needed

• Connection responsible for routing

Hubs Versus Switches Versus Routers

•Hub – A Hub is a retransmission device. When a data packet is presented to a hub it is retransmitted to all other connected devices. Because the data packet is retransmitted to all ports the total available bandwidth is shared between all devices.

•Switch – A Switch is similar to a hub except a switch has circuitry and software that allows the switch to “learn” and remember all devices connected to it. When a data packet is presented to it, the switch will know which physical port to retransmit the data to. This allows for a greater bandwidth to be achieved.

•Router – A Router or Gateway allows multiple networks to be connected together. Routers are programmable, can provide firewall protection, and Network Address Translation (NAT). Data between local computers are kept internal by examining the Subnet Mask address of each device .

Configuration of Routers

•Port Forwarding – Port Forwarding allows a user to take one or more specific ports that a device uses to talk and only allows traffic to be sent to one specific IP address. This allows an external data packet to be sent to one specific device without affecting the security of the overall network.

Using POTS for Alarming Signaling

• The traditional method for alarm communication

• Delay for the handshake

• High cost of the dedicated phone line

• Must be wired for line seizure

• Difficult/Expensive to implement the supervision

• No Encryption over POTS

Using IP for Alarm Signaling

You can successfully differentiate your service by using DSC T-Link IP alarm communicator

• Safe Back-up communication Supervison Encryption: Uses IP protocols to send information (TCP-IP, UDP, etc)

• Cost effective Get rid of the phone line (primary) Use existing Internet network (primary or back-up)

• Fast IP transmission: 2 seconds maximum from transmitter to receiver. POTS transmission: 15 seconds for fast format; 30 seconds for pulse format Panel remote program (IP VS. POTS)

• Reliable Redundant communication ensures reliability Enterprise networks are professionally administered and rival phone line stability

• Flexible Offer an alternative way for communication when no traditional phone line is

present. Work with most broadband networks
