SLIP
Slip (Serial Line Internet
Protocol) was created by Berkley (U. of CA) for encapsulating
data to be transferred by TCP/IP over a modem.
Being the same college that added so much to the UNIX operating
system, including its solid support for TCP/IP networking, they had
specific design goals in mind, limited by the technology of the
day. This means that SLIP:
SLIP is still occasionally
used out in the real world, and is supported by Microsoft Windows
Dial Up Networking clients, so you may encounter it in your work.
However, usage of SLIP has decreased over time, as more efficient and
versatile remote access protocols have appeared on the scene.
SLIP is slipping away
Can only support TCP/IP
Only works on asynchronous connections
Is limited to 56K/b sec. Connections
Must be manually configured, no auto-configuration
SLIP cannot dynamically adjust bandwidth. |
