DNS: Domain Name System
DNS services• Hostname to IP address translation• Host aliasing
– Canonical and alias names• Mail server aliasing• Load distribution
– Replicated Web servers: set of IP addresses for one canonical name

DNS: Root name servers• contacted by local name server that cannot resolve name• root name server:
– contacts authoritative name server if name mapping not known– gets mapping– returns mapping to local name server– http://root-servers.org/ 13 root name servers

TLD and Authoritative Servers• Top-level domain (TLD) servers: responsible for
com, org, net, edu, etc, and all top-level country domains cn, ca, fr, jp, uk etc.– Network solutions maintains servers for com TLD– Educause for edu TLD
• Authoritative DNS servers: organization’s DNS servers, providing authoritative hostname to IP mappings for organization’s servers (e.g., Web and mail).– Can be maintained by organization or service provider

Local Name Server
• Each ISP (residential ISP, company, university) has one.– Also called “default name server”
• When a host makes a DNS query, query is sent to its local DNS server– Acts as a proxy, forwards query into hierarchy.

TLD DNS server
Iterative Queries
iterated query:• contacted server replies with
name of server to contact• “I don’t know this name, but ask
this server”

DNS: caching and updating records
• once (any) name server learns mapping, it caches mapping– cache entries timeout (disappear) after some time– TLD servers typically cached in local name servers
• Thus root name servers not often visited

DNS records
DNS: distributed db storing resource records (RR)
• Type=NS– name is domain (e.g.
foo.com)– value is IP address of
authoritative name server for this domain
RR format: (name, ttl, class, type, value
• Type=Aname is hostnamevalue is IP address
• Type=CNAMEname is alias name for some “canonical” (the real) name www.ibm.com is really servereast.backup2.ibm.comvalue is canonical name
• Type=MXvalue is name of mail server associated with name

Web and HTTPFirst some jargon• Web page consists of objects• Object can be HTML file, JPEG image, Java applet,
audio file,…• Web page consists of base HTML-file which
includes several referenced objects• Each object is addressable by a URL• Example URL:
www.someschool.edu/someDept/pic.gif
host name path name

HTTP overview
HTTP: hypertext transfer protocol
• Web’s application layer protocol• client/server model
– client: browser that requests, receives, “displays” Web objects
– server: Web server sends objects in response to requests
• HTTP 1.0: RFC 1945• HTTP 1.1: RFC 2068

HTTP overview (continued)
Over TCP:• client initiates TCP connection (creates socket) to server,
port 80• server accepts TCP connection from client• HTTP messages (application-layer protocol messages)
exchanged between browser (HTTP client) and Web server (HTTP server)
• TCP connection closed
![Page 16: DNS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081604/56812cc9550346895d918443/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
HTTP request message
• two types of HTTP messages: request, response• HTTP request message:
– ASCII (human-readable format)
GET /somedir/page.html HTTP/1.1Host: www.someschool.edu User-agent: Mozilla/4.0Connection: close Accept-language:fr
(extra carriage return, line feed)
request line(GET, POST,
HEAD commands)header
lines
Carriage return, line feed
indicates end of message

Trying out HTTP (client side) for yourself
1. Telnet to your favorite Web server:
Opens TCP connection to port 80(default HTTP server port) at www.cs.fsu.edu.Anything typed in sent to port 80 at www.cs.fsu.edu
telnet www.cs.fsu.edu 80
2. Type in a GET HTTP request:GET index.html / HTTP/1.1Host: www.cs.fsu.edu
By typing this in (hit carriagereturn twice), you sendthis minimal (but complete) GET request to HTTP server
3. Look at response message sent by HTTP server!

User-server state: cookies
• HTTP is stateless.– two requests are treated independently.– Why stateless?– What is the problem with a stateless http?
• E-commence: People buy things by making many requests. Need the ability to bind the requests from the same customer together.
– Solution: cookies

• Some issues in HTTP:• Mainly due to its popularity
– Cache support.• Insufficient in http/1.0, improved in http/1.1• Intermediate nodes, encoding, etc
– Dynamically generated date• Not reliable in http/1.0
– Performance• Persistent or non-persistent TCP connection• Download the whole file or part of a file
– User preference– Security

Content-Delivery
• Akamai.• With 18,000 servers all around the world.• When a requesting for a webpage, the original
server will reply the text html file while asking Akamai servers to send the large files.
• Exactly how this done – some uses DNS redirecting.
