CISC 856: TCP/IP and Upper Layer Protocols
Catalog Description:
Principles and techniques employed in the transport, session, presentation
and application layers of the ISO Reference Model and the DoD TCP/IP protocol
suite. Examples: ASN.1, X.400, X.500, FTAM and Virtual terminal.

Goals:
CISC 856 relays an understanding of the principles and technique s
employed in the upper layers (defined to be transport and above) of two
protocol s suites: the ISO/OSI Reference Model and the U.S. Department
of Defense TCP/IP Internet. Following a set of introductory review lectures
on the OSI Reference Models, the transport, proposed application layer
protocol standards are presented.
