Assignment 1
Introductory Socket Programming
Due Date: Tuesday, March 2nd, 2021, at 10:00 am
Work on this assignment is to be completed individually
1 Assignment Objective
The goal of this assignment is to gain experience with TCP socket programming in a client‐server
environment (Figure 1). You will design a client/server protocol with out-of-band-control and
implement the client program (client) and the server program (server) to communicate between
themselves. Python, Java and other languages are accepted as long as it is support by the undergrad
environment linux.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca
2 Assignment Specifications
2.1 Summary
In this assignment, the client will send requests to and receive responses from the server over the
network using sockets.
This assignment uses a two‐stage communication process. In the negotiation stage, the client
connects to the server to request a command () for later processing a string over a given
negotiation port () of the server. Later in the transaction stage, the server connects to the
client on a transaction port () for actual data exchange.
2.2 Communication
Communication in this project is done in two stages.
Stage 1. Negotiation using a persistent TCP connection (control connection):
In this stage, the server creates a server socket on the local port number that we will call
negotiation port number. The client creates a TCP socket using as the server
address and as the negotiation port number (where the server is listening). After
connecting to the server, the client sends a request () read from the keyboard. For
simplicity, the client will send “GET ” or “PUT ”, for downloading or
uploading a file respectively to/from the current folder. For simplicity use text files, no
bigger than 5KB.
Once the server gets this request in the negotiation port, it will reply back with “OK”. The client
creates then a server socket on an available local port number that we will call
transaction port number and sends this port number over the control connection along with its
address .
Stage 2. Transaction using a non-persistent TCP connection (data connection):
In this stage, the server creates a TCP socket and binds it to the remote and
. After accepting the connection, the transfer of begins. The file must be
saved locally, and the transaction connection closed after file transfer. The client loops back to
Stage1.
2.3 End of communication
The user can end the client process by typing “EXIT” in Stage1. When “EXIT” is read the client closes
the control connection to the server.
2.4 Client Program (client)
You should implement a client program, named client. It will take the command line inputs:
and in the given order.
2.5 Server Program (server)
You should also implement a server program, named server. It will take the command line inputs:
.
2.6 Example Execution
On ubuntu1804-002.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca :
server 6789
On ubuntu1804-008.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca :
client ubuntu1804-002.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca 6789
3 Hints
You can use the sample codes of TCP socket programming in Python from the Socket slides on
LEARN.
Below are some points to remember while coding/debugging to avoid trivial problems.
• Use port id greater than 1024, since ports 0‐1023 are already reserved for different purposes (e.g.,
HTTP @ 80, SMTP @ 25)
• If there are problems establishing connections, check whether any of the computers running the
server and the client is behind a firewall or not. If yes, allow your programs to communicate by
configuring your firewall software.
• Make sure that the server is running before you run the client.
• If both the server and the client are running in the same system, 127.0.0.1 or localhost can be
used as the destination host address.
• You can use help on socket programming from any book or from the Internet, if you properly refer
to the source in your programs. But remember, you cannot share your program or work with any
other student.
4 Procedures
4.1 Due Date
The assignment is due on Tuesday, March 2nd 2021, at 10:00am.
4.2 Hand in Instructions
Submit all your files in a single compressed file (YourStudentIDA1.zip, .tar etc.) using LEARN in
dedicated Dropbox.
You must hand in the following files / documents:
• Source code files.
• README file: this file must contain instructions on how to run your program, which undergrad
machines your program was built and tested on.
Your implementation will be tested on the machines available in the undergrad environment
4.3 Documentation
Since there is no external documentation required for this assignment, you are expected to have a
reasonable amount of internal code documentation (to help the markers read your code).
You will lose marks if your code is unreadable, sloppy, or not inefficient.
4.4 Evaluation
Work on this assignment is to be completed individually.
