Explanation / Answer
a)Network layer of TCP/IP implements the Network Address Translation protocol
b) Advantages of NAT:
Disadvantages of NAT:
c)SNAT is nothing but a source network address translation it is used when private host wants to start a session with outside network(public host) here the source private Ip address is changed to some public address.
d)Originally NAT was introduced to tackle the problem of IP address scarcity but inaddition to this it also provided an additional layer of security.Let me explain how:
suppose an organisation wants to assign some private addresses to its computers which are hidden from outside world if any of these computers need to communicate with a server present outside these private IP addresses cant be used for this NAT translates this private address to a public address which is common to the organisation .So whenever communication is made to external server only the public address is used for that similarly the reponse from the server will be sent to this public address.Thereby hiding these computers from external world.
e)A TCP port/port is address of layer 4 protocols which is used to identify the service running on the system.
Ip address is a unique address assigned to a host for its identification in a network.
f)Advantages of TCP:
Disadvantages of TCP:
