Module 9: TCP/IP Protocol Suite and IP Addressing
Overview
When teaching Module 9, several questions should be discussed. Discuss why there are two networking models. Also discuss why IP addresses are necessary and why it is important to learn IP addressing. Finally, discuss why processes like ARP are necessary. The answer to these questions may help students put the challenges of Modules 9 and 10 in some context.

Module 9 Caution
The binary mathematics of eight-bit numbers is difficult for students. If the student has not mastered binary math before this module, it will be difficult for them to comprehend the new material. In addition to the binary math, a large amount of new terminology and many special IP address are introduced. Complex processes such as ARP, RARP, BootP, and DHCP are introduced.

Students completing this module should be able to perform the following tasks:
• Explain why the Internet was developed and how TCP/IP fits the design of the Internet
• List the four layers of the TCP/IP model
• Describe the functions of each layer of the TCP/IP model
• Compare the OSI model and the TCP/IP model
• Describe the function and structure of IP addresses
• Understand why subnetting is necessary
• Explain the difference between public and private addressing
• Understand the function of reserved IP addresses
• Explain the use of static and dynamic addressing for a device
• Understand how dynamic addressing can be done using RARP, BootP, and DHCP
• Use ARP to obtain the MAC address to send a packet to another device
• Understand the issues related to addressing between networks

Reading to be Done:

READ MODULE 9 ON LINE -- read it twice, even three times to retain the information

There are interactive media options available at the end of some of the pages.  It would be helpful TO YOU if you attempted these.  The quizzes are also a good option.  They give you an idea of what to expect on the test.

Videos - watch the IP Addressing one.
