代写Trivial File Transfer Protocol协议,并实现一个简单应用。
Trivial File Transfer Protocol
The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is an Internet software utility for
transferring files that is simpler to use than the File Transfer Protocol
(FTP) but less capable. It is used where user authentication and directory
visibility are not required. For example, it is used by Cisco routers and
switches to transfer images of the operating system from/to the devices.
NOTE: TFTP’s port is 69 (a system/OS port). This is below 1024 and therefore
you cannot bind a Socket to it unless you have administrative access rights on
the machine you are working. To avoid any complications you can use any ` port
1024 ` to bind server sockets.
Task 1: Implementation of the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
For this task you need to implement (in Java) the Trivial File Transfer
Protocol (TFTP) as specified in RFC 1350. You will submit source code for a
client and server application that ‘speak’ the TFTP protocol. You will built
your protocol on top of UDP. Compared to the specifications in the RFC, you
will implement a slightly simplified version:
- Support for octet mode only. The files should be transferred as a raw sequence of bytes. Do not read, write or transfer files as characters.
- Support only for error handling when the server is unable to satisfy the request because the file cannot be found.
- No support for error handling when data duplication occurs.
The client and server applications should be simple Java console applications.
The server should operate (i.e. read and write files) in the directory where
it is started from. The server should support simultaneous file transfers to
and from multiple clients. The client should just read command line arguments
(or have a very simple console-based menu - e.g. “press 1 to store file, press
2 to retrieve file”) and execute user commands (i.e. reading or writing a
file).
Hint: the simplest way to implement timeouts is by calling the setSoTimeout()
method on the DatagramSocket objects (assuming that you are using blocking
I/O). If the timeout expires, a java.net.SocketTimeoutException is raised,
though the DatagramSocket is still valid.
Task 2: Implementation of an even simpler version of TFTP on top of TCP
For this task you will use TCP sockets to implement a protocol that operates
like TFTP (i.e. supports only read and write operations). Given that TCP
supports in-order, reliable data transport, you should not implement the
relevant mechanisms described in RFC 1350 (ACKs, retransmissions). The client
and server applications should be equally simple, as in Task 1. The server
must be able to handle multiple file transfers.
Marking Criteria
You should make sure that your code compiles. Code which does not compile will
receive at most 20%.
I will assess your assignment using the following criteria:
- TFTP-UDP-Server (35%)
- Is the server-side of the protocol fully and correctly implemented (based on the specifications in the RFC)? i.e. read/write requests, acknowledgments, timeouts, error handling, support for simultaneous file transfers.
- TFTP-UDP-Client (30%):
- Is the client-side of the protocol fully and correctly implemented (based on the specifications in the RFC)? i.e. read/write requests, acknowledgments, timeouts, error handling.
- TFTP-TCP-Server (10%)
- Is the server-side of the protocol fully and correctly implemented? i.e. read/write requests, error handling, support for simultaneous file transfers.
- TFTP-TCP-Client (10%):
- Is the client-side of the protocol fully and correctly implemented? i.e. read/write requests, error handling.
- Description of Protocols (10%):
- Is there description for both protocols and how/where the specifications are implemented?
- Is the description well-written with clear references to the source code?
- Other Characteristics (5%):
- Is the code commented appropriately?
- Is it indented correctly?
- Is naming of variables and methods sensible?
Submission Guidelines
You should submit the coursework by the deadline posted on Sussex Direct (and
the esubmission link on Study Direct). Standard penalties for late submissions
will apply. You will need to submit a .zip file containing the following:
- Well-formatted and well-documented source code (written in Java) in 4 separate Netbeans projects that can be compiled and run. The Netbeans projects, named TFTP-UDP-Server, TFTP-UDP-Client, TFTP-TCP-Server and TFTP-TCP-Client, respectively, will include all required source code to execute the 2 different file transfer protocols.
- A short report (up to 2000 words) describing your protocols, the source code and the design decisions that you made.
Please do not put your names on your submissions, but do include your
candidate number. Failure to submit source code, as described in the first
bullet, will result to a zero mark as I will not be able to assess your
programming effort.
Plagiarism and Collusion
- The coursework you submit is supposed to have been produced by you and you alone. This means that you should not: work together with anyone else on this assignment
- give code for the assignment to other students
- request help from external sources
- do anything that means that the work you submit for assessment is not wholly your own work, but consists in part or whole of other people’s work, presented as your own, for which you should in fairness get no credit
