Join us for a lecture on the fundamentals of Layer 3 (L3) protocols in computer networks.
In this session, we will dive deep into the mechanics of IP addressing, subnetting, netmasks, netmask counting, and classless addressing.
We will explore the IPv4 protocol and its packet structure, including the sub protocols needed for IP, ICMP, PMTU discovery, and PMTU black hole.
We will also discuss Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) and how they relate to L3 networking.
Additionally, we will cover Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and how it fits into L3 networks.

Lastly, we will examine the latest version of the IP protocol, IPv6, and its subprotocols.
We will compare and contrast IPv4 and IPv6 and discuss  their respective benefits and drawbacks.
This lecture is perfect for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of L3 networks and their underlying protocols.
