  2. IP TCP IP TCP � IP: Internet Protocol � TCP: Transmission Control Protocol � Layer on top of IP � Unreliable communication of limited size data packets (datagrams) � Data is transmitted in streams � IP addresses (e.g. 165.193.130.107) identify � Reliability ensured by retransmitting lost datagrams, reordering, etc. machines � Connection-oriented � Handles routing using the underlying physical • establish connection between client and server network (e.g. Ethernet) • data streaming in both directions • close connection � Socket : end point of connection, associated a pair of (IP address, port number ) An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 5 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 6 HTTP HTTP Requests HTTP HTTP Requests GET /search?q=Introduction+to+XML+and+Web+Technologies HTTP/1.1 � HTTP: HyperText Transfer Protocol Host: www.google.com � Layer on top of TCP User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040803 � Request and response sent using TCP streams Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml, text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: da,en-us;q=0.8,en;q=0.5,sw;q=0.3 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Referer: http://www.google.com/ � Request line (methods: GET, POST, ...) � Header lines � Request body (empty here) An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 7 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 8 2

  4. GET vs. POST? Authentication GET vs. POST? Authentication � The client should not be held responsible for the � Restricting access to authorized users consequences of a GET request • useful for retrieving data, � Common techniques: not for submitting orders to an online shop • IP-address � Limits on request URI length • Form (with username/password fields) � POST allows other encodings (e.g. for file upload) • HTTP Basic � Cachability • HTTP Digest An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 13 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 14 HTTP Basic Authentication Advanced Features in HTTP HTTP Basic Authentication Advanced Features in HTTP � Challenge: � Cache control HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required � Range requests WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="The Doe Family Site" � Persistent connections, pipelining � Response: � ...

  5. Cache Control Range Requests Cache Control Range Requests � Caches used in clients, servers, and network � Caches used in clients, servers, and network � Range: bytes=387- (proxy servers, content delivery networks) (proxy servers, content delivery networks) � 206 Partial Content � Cache-Control: � Cache-Control never cache this message • no-store • no-store may cache but need revalidation • no-cache • no-cache • public may cache • public intended for single user • private • private set expiration • max-age • max-age require revalidation • must-revalidate • must-revalidate � HTTP/1.0: Expires: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT Pragma: no-cache An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 17 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 18 Persistent Connections Limitations of HTTP Persistent Connections Limitations of HTTP � Multiple request-response pairs on a single TCP � Stateless , no built-in support for tracking clients connection (session management) • Content-Length (now important!) • Connection: close (persistent by default in HTTP/1.1) � No built-in security mechanisms • Connection: keep-alive (compatibility) • Keep-Alive: 300 (control timeout, compatibility) � Pipelining • send multiple requests before receiving the responses • fewer TCP/IP packets • only for idempotent requests (e.g. GET) • supported by newer browsers An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 19 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 20 5

Session Management Cookies Session Management Cookies � Extension of HTTP that allows servers to store data Techniques on the clients • limited size and number • URL rewriting • may be disabled by the client • Hidden form fields • Cookies � Set-Cookie: sessionid=21A9A8089C305319; path=/ • SSL sessions � Cookie: sessionid=21A9A8089C305319 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 21 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 22 Security SSL Security SSL Desirable properties: � SSL: Secure Sockets Layer � confidentiality � TLS: Transport Layer Security (newer version) � integrity SSL/TLS � authenticity � Layer between HTTP and TCP, accessed by https://... � non-repuditation � Based on public-key cryptography • private key + public key • certificate (usually for server authentication only) An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 23 An Introduction to XML and Web Technologies 24 6
