COMS3200 UDP协议难点

Part C (50 marks)
The RUSH protocol (Reliable UDP Substitute for HTTP) is a HTTP-like stop-and-wait protocol that uses UDP
in conjunction with the RDT rules. You have recently been hired by the multinational tech giant COMS3200 Inc,
who have identified your deep knowledge in the field of transport-layer protocols. The CEO of COMS3200 Inc, Dan
Kim, has asked you to develop a network server capable of sending RUSH messages to a client. It is expected that
the RUSH protocol is able to handle packet corruption and loss according to the RDT rules. Your server program
must be written in Python, Java, C, or C++.
ASIDE: The RUSH protocol is not a real networking protocol and has been created purely for this assignment
Program Invocation
Your program should be able to be invoked from a UNIX command line as follows. It is expected that any Python
programs can run with version 3.6, and any Java programs can run with version 8.
Python
python3 assign2.py
C/C++
make
./assign2
Java
make
java Assign2
RUSH Packet Structure
A RUSH packet can be expressed as the following structure (|| is concatenation):
IP-header || UDP-header || RUSH-header || payload
The data segment of the packet is a string of ASCII plaintext. Single RUSH packets must be no longer than 1500
bytes, including the IP and UDP headers (i.e. the maximum length of the data section is 1466 bytes). Packets that
are smaller than 1500 bytes should be padded with 0 bits up to that size. The following table describes the header
structure of an RUSH packet:
Bit 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
0 Sequence Number
16 Acknowledgement Number
32 Flags Reserved (should be 0)
The following sections describe each header in this packet further.

Sequence and Acknowledgement Numbers
Sequence numbers are independently maintained by the client and server. The first packet sent by either endpoint
should have a sequence number of 1, and subsequent packets should have a sequence number of 1 higher than the
previous packet (note that unlike TCP, RUSH sequence numbers are based on the number of packets as opposed
to the number of bytes). When the ACK flag is set, the acknowledgement number should contain the sequence
number of the packet that is being acknowledged. When a packet is retransmitted, it should use the original
sequence number of the packet being retransmitted. Any packet that isn’t a retransmission (including NAKs)
should increment the sequence number.
Flags
The Flags section of the header is broken down into the following:
Bit 0 1 2 3 4
0 ACK NAK GET DAT FIN
The purpose of these flags is described in the example below.
RUSH Example
The following situation describes a simple RUSH communication session. Square brackets denote the flags that are
set in each step (for example [FIN/ACK] denotes the FIN and ACK flags having the value 1 and the rest having
the value 0). Note that RUSH, unlike TCP, is not connection-oriented. There is no handshake to initialise the
connection, but there is one to close the connection.

1. The client sends a request packet to the server [GET]
   The sequence number of this packet will always be 1
   The data section of this packet will contain the name of a resource (eg. file.txt)
2. The server transmits the requested resource to the client over (possibly) multiple packets [DAT]
   The first packet should have a sequence number of 1
3. The client acknowledges having received each data packet [DAT/ACK]
   The acknowledgement number of this packet should be the sequence number of the packet being acknowledged
4. After receiving the last acknowledgement, the server signals the end of the connection [FIN]
5. The client acknowledges the connection termination [FIN/ACK]
6. The server acknowledges the client’s acknowledgement and terminates the connection [FIN/ACK]

   Your Task
   Basic Server Functionality (10 marks)
   To receive marks in this section you need to have a program that is able to:
   Listen on an unused port for a client’s message
   Successfully close the connection
   When invoked, your program should let the OS choose an unused localhost port and your program should listen
   on that port. It should output that port as a raw base-10 integer to stdout. For example, if Python was used and
   port 54321 was selected, your program invocation would look like this:
   python3 assign2.py
   54321
   Any lines in stdout after the port number can be used for debugging. For this section, your program does not
   need to respond to the GET request. Upon hearing from a client, your program can immediately signal the end of
   the connection (as described in the example). Once the FIN handshake has been completed, your program should
   terminate.
   You may always assume that only one client will connect to the server at a time. For this section and the next you
   may also assume that no packets are corrupted or lost during transmission.
   File Transmission (10 marks)
   To receive marks in this section you need to have a program that is able to:
   Perform all features outlined in the above section
   Successfully transmit a requested file over one or more packets
   Receive (but not handle) ACKs from the client during transmission
   When your server receives a GET packet, it should locate the file being requested and return the file’s contents
   over one or more DAT packets. When complete, the server should close the connection (as in the above section).
   You may assume that the file being requested always exists (it is expected that this file is stored in your program’s
   working directory).
   Retransmission (15 marks)
   To receive marks in this section you need to have a program that is able to:
   Perform all features outlined in the above sections
   Retransmit any packet on receiving a NAK for that packet
   Retransmit any packet that has not been acknowledged within 3 seconds of being sent
   A client will send a DAT/NAK packet should it receive a corrupted packet or a packet with a sequence number it
   wasn’t expecting (the NAK packet’s acknowledgement number will contain the sequence number it was expecting).
   In this case your program should retransmit the packet with that sequence number.
   If a DAT, FIN, or ACK packet gets lost during transmission your program should retransmit it after 3 seconds
   without acknowledgement. If a NAK is received the timer should reset. How you choose to handle timeouts is up
   to you, however it must work on a UNIX machine (moss). Achieving this through multithreading, multiprocessing,
   or signals is fine provided you only use standard libraries.

   Packet Corruption (15 marks)
   To receive marks in this section you need to have a program that is able to:
   Perform all features outlined in the above sections
   Gracefully ignore corrupt, invalid, or unexpected packets
   When a corrupt, invalid, or unexpected packet is received, your program should ignore it and continue to run
   without error. Any retransmission timer should also not stop or reset. Part of this task is determining what would
   constitute as an invalid or unexpected packet. You can assume that the only legal flag combinations are GET,
   DAT, DAT/ACK, DAT/NAK, FIN, and FIN/ACK. You don’t have to worry about checking the UDP checksum –
   only the contents of the RUSH header and data.
   Tips for Success
   Revisit the lectures and labs on reliable data transfer and TCP, ensuring you are familiar with the fundamentals
   Frequently test your code on moss
   Ensure your base functionality is working before attempting the more difficult tasks
   Start early – there will be limited help during the midsemester break so any questions will need to be asked
   in labs beforehand
   Library Restrictions
   The only communication libraries you may use are standard socket libraries which open UDP sockets
   You can’t use any libraries that aren’t considered standard for your languagei.e. if you have to download a
   library to use it it would be considered as non-standard)
   If you are unsure about whether you may use a certain library, please ask the course staff on Piazza
   Submission
   Submit all files necessary to run your program. At a minimum, you should submit a file named assign2.py,
   assign2.c, assign2.cpp or Assign2.java. If you submit a C/C++ or Java program, you should also submit a
   makefile to compile your code into a binary named assign2 or a .class file named Assign2.class.
   IMPORTANT: If you do not adhere to this (eg. submitting a C/C++/Java program without a Makefile, or a
   .class file instead of a .java file), you will receive 0 for this part of the assignment.
   Marking
   Your code will be automatically marked on a UNIX machine, so it is essential that your program’s behaviour is
   exactly as specified above. Your program should complete all tasks within a reasonable time frame (for example a
   single packet should not take more than one second to construct and send) – there will be timeouts on all tests and
   it is your responsibility to make sure your code is not overly inefficient. It is expected that you will receive a small
   sample of tests and a basic RUSH client program before the submission deadline.
