INTER ORGANISATIONAL SYSTEM
The communication will be taking place betweenorganizations or it may be taking place the departmentsof a particular organization. It is used interact within the organisation and also
it perform interaction with outside organisation. If the departments are located in different placesand they want to share the information in secured waythey use this IOS. The employee of that particular organisation have aspecial user name and password and they can alone
share the information. Outside people of the organisation does not havethis facilities. The predefined agreement is possible in IOSsystem but it is not possible in Electronic Market.

INTRODUCTION
By the turn of the century, information, including access tothe Internet, will be the basis for personal, economic, andpolitical advancement.
The popular name for the Internet is the information
superhighway.
Whether you want to find the latest financial news, browsethrough library catalogs, exchange information withcolleagues, or join in a lively political debate, the Internet isthe tool
The Internet shrinks the world and brings information,expertise, and knowledge on nearly every subject imaginablestraight to your computer.

INTERNETWORK
An internetwork is a collection of individual networks,
connected by intermediate networking devices, that functionsas a single large network.
Internetworking refers to the industry, products, and
procedures that meet the challenge of creating andadministering internetworks.
Below Figure illustrates some different kinds of networktechnologies that can be interconnected by routers and othernetworking devices to create an internetwork.

INTERNET
The Internet links are computer networks all over the worldso that users can share resources and communicate with eachother.
Some computers, have direct access to all the facilities on the
Internet such as the universities.
And other computers, eg privately-owned ones, have indirectlinks through a commercial service provider, who offers someor all of the Internet facilities.
In order to be connected to Internet, you must go throughservice suppliers. Many options are offered with monthly rates.Depending on the option chosen, access time may vary.
The Internet is what we call a metanetwork, that is, anetwork of networks that spans the globe.

INTERNET
It's impossible to give an exact count of the number of
networks or users that comprise the Internet, but it is easily inthe thousands and millions respectively.
The Internet employs a set of standardized protocols which
allow for the sharing of resources among different kinds ofcomputers that communicate with each other on the network.
These standards, sometimes referred to as the InternetProtocol Suite, are the rules that developers adhere to whencreating new functions for the Internet.
The Internet is also what we call a distributed system; there isno central archives. Technically, no one runs the Internet.
Rather, the Internet is made up of thousands of smallernetworks.

HISTORY OF INTERNETWORKING
The first networks were time-sharing networks that used
mainframes and attached terminals.
Such environments were implemented by both IBM's SystemsNetwork Architecture (SNA) and Digital's network architecture.
Local-area networks (LANs) evolved around the PCrevolution.
LANs enabled multiple users in a relatively small geographicalarea to exchange files and messages, as well as access shared
resources such as file servers and printers.
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
51/100
HISTORY OF INTERNETWORKING
Wide-area networks (WANs) interconnect LANs with
geographically dispersed users to create connectivity.
Some of the technologies used for connecting LANs includeT1, T3, ATM, ISDN, ADSL, Frame Relay, radio links, and others.
New methods of connecting dispersed LANs are appearingeveryday.
Today, high-speed LANs and switched internetworks arebecoming widely used, largely because they operate at veryhigh speeds and support such high-bandwidth applications as
multimedia and videoconferencing.
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
52/100
HISTORY OF INTERNETWORKING
Internetworking evolved as a solution to three keyproblems:
isolated LANs, duplication of resources, and a lack of network management.
Isolated LANs made electronic communication betweendifferent offices or departments impossible.
Duplication of resources meant that the same hardwareand software had to be supplied to each office or
department, as did separate support staff.
This lack of network management meant that nocentralized method of managing and troubleshootingnetworks existed

DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNETWORKING
Internet was originally conceived by the Department ofDefense as a way to protect government communicationssystems in the event of a military strike.
The original network, dubbed ARPANet (for the Advanced
Research Projects Agency that developed it) evolved intoa communications channel among contractors, militarypersonnel, and university researchers who werecontributing to ARPA projects.
The network employed a set of standard protocols tocreate an effective way for these people to communicateand share data with each other.
-

54/100
DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNETWORKING
ARPAnet's popularity continued to spread amongresearchers, and in the 1980's the National ScienceFoundation, whose NSFNet, linked several high speedcomputers, took charge of the what had come to beknown as the Internet.
In 1991, the U.S. High Performance Computing Act
established the NREN (National Research & EducationNetwork).
NREN's goal was to develop and maintain high-speednetworks for research and education, and to investigatecommercial uses for the Internet.
The rest, as they say, is history in the making. TheInternet has been improved through the developments ofsuch services as Gopher and the World Wide Web.
Even though the Internet is predominantly thought of as aresearch oriented network, it continues to grow as aninformational, creative, and commercial resource everyday and all over the world.

INTERNET ADDRESSING
Internetwork addresses identify devices separately or asmembers of a group.
Addressing schemes vary depending on the protocolfamily and the OSI layer.
Three types of internetwork addresses are commonlyused:
data link layer addresses, Media Access Control (MAC)addresses, and network layer addresses.
DATA LINK LAYER ADDRESS
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
56/100
DATA LINK LAYER ADDRESS
A data link layer address uniquely identifies each physicalnetwork connection of a network device.
Data-link addresses sometimes are referred to asphysicalor hardware addresses.
Data-link addresses usually exist within a flat addressspace and have a pre-established and typically fixedrelationship to a specific device.
DATA LINK LAYER ADDRESS
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
57/100
DATA LINK LAYER ADDRESS
End systems generally have only one physical networkconnection and thus have only one data-link address.
Routers and other internetworking devices typically havemultiple physical network connections and therefore havemultiple data-link addresses.
Figure illustrates how each interface on a device isuniquely identified by a data-link address.
The following figure depict how a device can be identifiedusing the data link layer address

MAC ADDRESSES
Media Access Control (MAC) addresses consist of a subsetof data link layer addresses.
MAC addresses identify network entities in LANs thatimplement the IEEE MAC addresses of the data link layer.
As with most data-link addresses, MAC addresses are
unique for each LAN interface. The figure illustrates therelationship between MAC addresses, data-link addresses,and the IEEE sublayers of the data link layer.

MAC ADDRESSES
MAC addresses are 48 bits in length and are expressed as12 hexadecimal digits.
The first 6 hexadecimal digits, which are administered bythe IEEE, identify the manufacturer or vendor and thuscomprise the Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI).
The last 6 hexadecimal digits comprise the interface serialnumber, or another value administered by the specificvendor.
MAC addresses sometimes are called burned-in addresses(BIAs) because they are burned into read-only memory
(ROM) and are copied into random-access memory (RAM)when the interface card initializes.
The following Figure illustrates the MAC address format.

MAPPING ADDRESSES
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
63/100
MAPPING ADDRESSES
Because internetworks generally use network addressesto route traffic around the network, there is a need to mapnetwork addresses to MAC addresses.
When the network layer has determined the destination
station's network address, it must forward theinformation over a physical network using a MAC address.
Different protocol suites use different methods to performthis mapping, but the most popular is Address ResolutionProtocol (ARP).
MAPPING ADDRESSES

MAPPING ADDRESSES
Different protocol suites use different methods fordetermining the MAC address of a device.
The following three methods are used most often. AddressResolution Protocol (ARP) maps network addresses to
MAC addresses.
The Hello protocol enables network devices to learn theMAC addresses of other network devices.
MAC addresses either are embedded in the network layer
address or are generated by an algorithm.
MAPPING ADDRESSES
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
65/100
MAPPING ADDRESSES
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is the method used in
the TCP/IP suite. When a network device needs to senddata to another device on the same network, it knows thesource and destination network addresses for the datatransfer.
It must somehow map the destination address to a MACaddress before forwarding the data.
First, the sending station will check its ARP table to see ifit has already discovered this destination station's MACaddress. If it has not, it will send a broadcast on thenetwork with the destination station's IP addresscontained in the broadcast.
Every station on the network receives the broadcast and
compares the embedded IP address to its own. Only thestation with the matching IP address replies to thesending station with a packet containing the MAC addressfor the station.
The first station then adds this information to its ARPtable for future reference and proceeds to transfer thedata.
MAPPING ADDRESSES

7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
66/100
MAPPING ADDRESSES
When the destination device lies on a remote network,
one beyond a router, the process is the same except thatthe sending station sends the ARP request for the MACaddress of its default gateway.
It then forwards the information to that device.
The default gateway will then forward the informationover whatever networks necessary to deliver the packetto the network on which the destination device resides.
The router on the destination device's network then usesARP to obtain the MAC of the actual destination device and
delivers the packet.
MAPPING ADDRESSES
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
67/100
MAPPING ADDRESSES
The Hello protocol is a network layer protocol that enables
network devices to identify one another and indicate thatthey are still functional.
When a new end system powers up, for example, itbroadcasts hello messages onto the network.
Devices on the network then return hello replies, andhello messages are also sent at specific intervals toindicate that they are still functional.
Network devices can learn the MAC addresses of otherdevices by examining Hello protocol packets.
MAPPING ADDRESSES
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
68/100
MAPPING ADDRESSES
Three protocols use predictable MAC addresses.
In these protocol suites, MAC addresses arepredictable because the network layer either embeds theMAC address in the network layer address or uses analgorithm to determine the MAC address.
The three protocols are
Xerox Network Systems (XNS), Novell Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX), DECnet Phase IV.
NETWORK LAYER ADDRESSES
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce
69/100
NETWORK LAYER ADDRESSES
A network layer address identifies an entity at the
network layer of the OSI layers. Network addresses usually exist within a hierarchical
address space and sometimes are called virtual orlogical addresses.
The relationship between a network address and adevice is logical and unfixed; it typically is based
either on physical network characteristics End systems require one network layer address for
each network layer protocol that they support. Routers and other internetworking devices require
one network layer address per physical networkconnection for each network layer protocol
supported. For example, a router with three interfaces each
running AppleTalk, TCP/IP, and OSI must have threenetwork layer addresses for each interface.

WHO PAYS FOR THE INTERNET?
There is no clear answer to this question because the
Internet is not one "thing", it's many things.
No one central agency exists that charges individualInternet users. Rather, individuals and institutionswho use the Internet pay a local or regional Internetservice provider for their share of services.
And in turn, those smaller Internet service providersmight purchase services from an even larger network.
So basically, everyone who uses the Internet in someway pays for part of it.
CLIENT / SERVER MODEL

CLIENT / SERVER MODEL
The most popular Internet tools operate as
client/server systems. You're running a program called a Web client. This
piece of software displays documents for you andcarries out your requests.
If it becomes necessary to connect to another type ofservice--say, to set up a Telnet session, or to
download a file--your Web client will take care of this,too.
Your Web client connects (or "talks") to a Web serverto ask for information on your behalf.
The Web server is a computer running another type ofWeb software which provides data, or "serves up" an
information resource to your Web client.
CLIENT / SERVER MODEL
-
7/30/2019 Fundamentals of ECommerce

CLIENT / SERVER MODEL
All of the basic Internet tools--including Telnet, FTP,
Gopher, and the World Wide Web--are based upon thecooperation of a client and one or more servers.
In each case, you interact with the client program andit manages the details of how data is presented to youor the way in which you can look for resources.
In turn, the client interacts with one or more servers
where the information resides. The server receives a request, processes it, and sends
a result, without having to know the details of yourcomputer system, because the client software on yourcomputer system is handling those details.
The advantage of the client/server model lies in
distributing the work so that each tool can focus orspecialize on particular tasks:
The server serves information to many users while theclient software for each user handles the individualuser's interface and other details of the requests andresults.

READING AN IP ADDRESS
To use Internet e-mail successfully, you must
understand how the names and addresses for computersand people on the Internet are formatted.
Mastering this technique is just as important asknowing how to use telephone numbers or postaladdresses correctly.
Fortunately, after you get the hang of them, Internetaddresses are usually no more complex than phonenumbers and postal addresses.
And, like those methods of identifying a person, an
organization, or a geographic location--usually by atelephone number or a street address--Internet addresseshave rules and conventions for use.

WHAT IS INTRANET?
Intranet is a private network. It shares the information
between some organization. i.e. An intranet is a corporate LANor wide area network that uses Internet technology and issecured behind companys firewalls(a kind of access controlserver).
The intranet links various servers,clients,databases and
application programs like Enterprise Resource Planning(ERP).
Although intranets are developed on the same TCP/IP
protocol as the Internet, they operate as a private network
with limited access.
Only authorized employees are able to use it.

The firewalls protect the intranets from unauthorized
outside access.
The intranet can be used to enhance the communication
and collaboration among authorized
employees,customers,suppliers, and other businesspartners.
Since the intranet allows access through the internet , itdoes not require any additional implementation of leasednetworks. This open and flexible connectivity is a major
capability and advantage of intranets.
Intranets provide the infrastructure for many intrabusiness
commerce applications.

A firewall is software and/or hardware that allows only
those external users with specific characteristics to accessa protected network.
Additional software may be necessary to support the web-based workflow ,groupware, Enterprise ResourcePlanning(ERP),depending upon the individual companys
need.

An extranet or extendedintranet, uses the TCP/IP
protocol networks of the internet, to link intranets indifferent locations.
Extranet transmission are usually conducted over theInternet, which offers little privacy or transmissionsecurity.
Therefore, when using an extranet , it is necessary toimprove the security of the connecting portions of theInternet.
This is done by creating tunnels of secured data flows,using cryptography and authorization algorithms.
The Internet with tunneling technology is known asVirtually private network(VPN).

Extranets provide secured connectivity between acorporations intranets and the intranets of its businesspartners ,materials suppliers,financial services,government,and customers. Access to intranets is strictly controlled and it is onlyavailable to authorized personnel. The protected environment of the extranet allows group tocollaborate,sharing information and exchanging itsecurely. Since an extranet allows connectivity between businessesthrough the internet,it is an open and flexible platform
suitable for supply chain management. To increase security,many companies replicate thedatabases and separate them physically from their regularintranets. The separated data need to be protected.This protection isprovided by special architecture

The extended intranet connects multiple intranets
through a secured tunneling Internet.
Extranets combine the privacy and security of intranetswith the global reach of the Internet,granting access to
outside business partners,suppliers and customers to acontrolled portion of the enterprise network.
Extranets are becoming the major platforms for B2B EC.
They provide the flexibility of serving internal andexternal users.

Extranets are comprised of a wide variety of componentsand several possible configurations.
These include intranets,Web
servers,firewalls,ISPs,tunneling technology,interface softwareand business applications.
The tunneling principle is the basic concept that makes the
extranet possible. Tunneling means that data transmissions across the
Internet can be made secure by authenticating and encrypting
all IP packets. Several tunneling protocols are available,but IP Security
proposed by IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) is one ofthe more popular protocols.

1. They can be implemented using a direct leased line with fullcontrol over it,linking all intranets.2. A secure link(tunnel) can be created across the Internet,which can be used by the corporation as a VPN.
The Effectiveness of an extranet depends on the degreeto which it is Integrated with the legacy systems anddatabases.
Integrating with legacy systems involves integrating a
System Network Architecture-the backbone of legacy
systems in many corporations-with TCP/IP, the webbackbone.
