TCP - 12 simple ideas to explain the Transmission Control Protocol
Ғылым және технология
TCP has been the predominate layer 4 protocol that has served the Internet for the last 40 years. In this video we take a deep dive into TCP and illustrate how all of these concepts work together: Sequence Numbers, Acknowledgement Numbers, Window Size, Delayed Acknowledgements, Flow Control, TCP Connection Closures, and FIN + Reset Segments.
I've broken up TCP into 12 simple distinct ideas, and if you can understand each of those 12 ideas, then you can say you can understand TCP better than most. Hope you enjoy this TCP deep dive!
00:00 - Intro
00:30 - Pre-Requisites - background knowledge of TCP and UDP
00:48 - Twelve Ideas to understand TCP and the TCP Header
01:32 - Idea 1 - Sequence Numbers and Acknowledgement Numbers
03:00 - Idea 2 - Sequence & Acknowledgement Numbers are tracking BYTES sent and received
04:23 - Understanding Sequence Numbers and Acknowledgement Numbers
06:49 - Idea 3 - TCP Retransmission Timer
09:48 - Idea 4 - Delayed Acknowledgements - Acknowledgments are Cumulative
12:15 - Idea 5 - Window Size and Bytes in Flight
15:00 - Delayed ACKs vs Window Size
15:26 - Idea 6 - Window Size, TCP Headers and Flow Control
18:25 - Idea 7 - TCP is Bidirectional - both peers have SEQ# and ACK#
21:50 - Empty Acknowledgements, Duplicate Acks, TCP analysis, TCP troubleshooting
23:47 - Idea 8 - Initial Sequence Numbers (ISNs) are Random
24:50 - Idea 9 - TCP Three Way Handshake - SYN, SYN ACK, ACK
26:40 - 3-way Handshake, SYN flags, ACK Flags, and the TCP Header
28:40 - Initial Window Size is set in the three-way handshake
29:19 - SYN packets increase the Sequence Number -- The Phantom Byte
30:44 - ACK flag is turned on for all TCP segments, except the initial SYN
31:22 - Idea 10 - Two methods for TCP to close a connection - FIN and RST
32:20 - Idea 11 - FIN Flags and Four Way Connection Closure
34:40 - FIN Flags do not need to be sequential
38:05 - Phantom Byte inside the FIN and SYN Segments
39:38 - Idea 12 - RST Flags instantly terminate a TCP connection
42:00 - Want more? Help me blow up these videos and I'll create the full TCP Masterclass

📺🧩 TCP Masterclass: kzread.info/head/PLIFyRwBY_4bS-PQZoF0UySdG0sH9VA0bn 🚨📢 Announcement: *I'm creating a full Networking course!* Details --> pracnet.net/networking 👉👉 Enroll now for *discounted early access* to the course and a chance to help shape its content. 📺🕸 Module 1 of the course is *free* : kzread.info/head/PLIFyRwBY_4bRLmKfP1KnZA6rZbRHtxmXi But what about the TCP Masterclass? I have about 10-12 lessons scoped out for a comprehensive TCP Masterclass, and I'd love to create it at some point. When I released the first three lessons, I offered a challenge: If any one video garnered 100k views in the first 6 months, I would create the full TCP Masterclass. Unfortunately, we didn't meet that goal, so I had to prioritize other projects. But I haven't given up hope! *If you are interested in seeing the full TCP Masterclass developed, then the best way to bring that to fruition is to spread the word about this content*. Doing so will help others fully understand TCP and UDP and bring me closer to committing to creating the full series... Plus, think of all the Internet Points you can get for sharing this series (likes, karma, follows, etc) 😉 If you share this series, please use this link: kzread.info/head/PLIFyRwBY_4bS-PQZoF0UySdG0sH9VA0bn Otherwise, I genuinely hope you got a lot out of the first three lessons. Thank you for all the encouraging words in the comments. =)

@james1081 ditto. @practicalnetworking Thank you for the awesome content
The idea behind dividing the concepts into several ideas and explaining it one by one in detail it's just awesome.Loved the way you taught TCP.🙇♂️
The most comprehensive explanation of TCP I have ever watched. I am looking forwarding for the full TCP master class.
ED when i started my career in network domain...senior people always said just read todd lammle 's book for CCNA ...each word having making sense even it is true at inital level ..but now i will say each word in this vedio make sense as well as very important. Every person who belongs to infra team must go via this video.. Very informative, much cleared in very short time .. Thank you ED for such a video 😊😊

Thanks for the kind comment, =) I'm thrilled to hear you've enjoyed this video and compare me to "the greats" like Todd Lammle. =)
Your videos have been so incredibly helpful to actually understand these concepts, thank you for explaining things so clearly!
Your entire video series has been amazing. You are very talented in explaining things fluidly and simply.
Just finished this series and I must say I'm thoroughly impressed. You are God sent Ed. Thanks for making this free and accessible for all.
Again, you hit it out of the ballpark. Fantastic.
I've never seen someone that is able to compress lectures long of material into 44 mins of video white taking the animations into consideration.. Keep up with the content !

I had gone through about 4 videos which left me a bit confused, but found your video had excellent clarity. Each point was explained without ambiguity and really helped me to get it. Thanks a lot!
What a lesson. Such a simple explanation. Kudos!
I've seen video breakdowns of TCP before, but this is perhaps the best I've encountered. Great job!
Please continue the series . words cant explain how useful your content is .excellent animated content even normal people can understand the topic easily .
best video about tcp ive ever seen in my life
Excellent video, after going through a ton of videos about TCP on youtube, by far this is the best and simple video that explains the complex TCP concepts very well. Awesome job. Really like your videos. It is the combination of identifying key concepts in an order, visual representation and concise explanation that makes this video standout.
I swear this is the Most Detailed Video for TCP Connection inner-working... Thanks for the so much detailed Explanation ❤️
I would rate you top 1 teacher on youtube. Not only networking teacher, but like your networking teaching is the best teaching compared to teachers in any field.

TCP is one of those topics that is super easy to learn but hard to master because of its depth. You can fix TCP-level errors if you learn TCP fundamentally. I've been learning Wireshark recently, and TCP topics are confusing. This video helped me understand some confusing topics. thank you!!
