Core Internet Protocols
Most of the time we don't have to think about how the network works; it's hidden from us by higher-level abstractions. Sometimes though, it helps to understand what's happening on the wire. This talk will provide an overview of some of the core protocols of the Internet, from the network layer on up.
We'll cover IP, TCP and UDP, SMTP, and HTTP, with glimpses at other protocols as well.
