Program 1: Write a program that obtains the IP address of a site.

/* Program to find the IP address of a website */
// Mukesh N Tekwani

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

class AddressDemo
{
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
{
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(System.in));

System.out.print("Enter a website name: ");
String site = br.readLine();

try
{
InetAddress ip = InetAddress.getByName(site);
System.out.print("The IP address is: " + ip);
}
catch(UnknownHostException e)
{
System.out.println("WebSite not found");
}
}
}

/* Output:

C:JavaPrgs>java AddressDemo
Enter a website name: www.google.com
The IP address is: www.google.com/74.125.235.50
*/

Modification:
Modify the above program so that it takes the website name (e.g., http://www.yahoo.com) from the
command line. If the website address is not given at command line, use the default address
http://www.google.com.

Program 2: Write a program that connects to the home page of www.yahoo.com (read
from a URL).

//Program to connect to the home page of www.yahoo.com
// Mukesh N Tekwani

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;

public class URLReader
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
URL myurl = new URL("http://www.yahoo.com/");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(myurl.openStream()));
String inputLine;

while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(inputLine);
in.close();
}
}

Output:
When this program is run, it displays the complete HTML code of the web page.

Possible Error: If we give site address simply as www.yahoo.com, we get MalformedURLException.
The protocol http must also be given in the complete URL.

Modification:
Modify the above program so that it takes the website name (e.g., http://www.yahoo.com) from the
command line. If the website address is not given at command line, use the default address
http://www.google.com.

CLIENT-SERVER PROGRAMS (Using Sockets)

Client Server
Create TCP Socket Create TCP Socket
Socket cs = new ServerSocket ss = new
Socket(hostname, port); ServerSocket(port);

Client initiates the communication Wait for client connection
by reading the user input Socket listen_socket =
Str = ss.accept();
userinput.readLine(); Then reads the client on listen_socket.

Then sends it to server Server listens client
Server_out.writeBytes(str client_str =
+ ‘n’); client_input.readLine();

Client listens to server using client Server sends reply to client
socket

Close client socket

Modifications:
1. Modify the Server program in this example so that it is not multithreaded.
2. Modify the client program so that the input string is entered by the user from keyboard when program
runs, instead of storing it within the program.



Program 17:
Write a client-server socket application in which
(i) A client reads a character from the keyboard and sends the character out of its
socket to the server.
(ii) The server reads the character from its connection socket
(iii) The server finds the ASCII value of the character.
(iv) The server sends the ASCII value out of its connection socket to the client.
(v) The client reads the result from its socket and prints the result on its standard
output device.

Server Program:
//Server sends the ASCII code of a character to client
//Mukesh N Tekwani
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class ServerASCII
{
{
String clientstr, serverstr;

ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(4444);

while(true)
{
Socket cs = ss.accept();
System.out.println("Connected to client...");

BufferedReader inFromClient = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(cs.getInputStream()));

DataOutputStream outToClient = new
DataOutputStream(cs.getOutputStream());

clientstr = inFromClient.readLine();

//read the first character from input
char c = clientstr.charAt(0);

/* Find the ASCII code; note the type casting */
serverstr = "The ASCII code of " + clientstr + " is " +
(int)c + 'n';

outToClient.writeBytes(serverstr);
}
}
}
Output at Client end:
C:JavaPrgs>java ClientASCII
Enter a character
B
From server: The ASCII code of B is 66



PORTS AND SOCKETS

Understanding Ports
Generally speaking, a computer has a single physical connection to the network. All data destined for a
particular computer arrives through that connection. However, the data may be intended for different
applications running on the computer. So how does the computer know to which application to forward the
data? Through the use of ports.

Data transmitted over the Internet is accompanied by addressing information that identifies the computer and
the port for which it is destined. The computer is identified by its 32-bit IP address, which IP uses to deliver
data to the right computer on the network. Ports are identified by a 16-bit number, which TCP and UDP use
to deliver the data to the right application.

In connection-based communication such as TCP, a server application binds a socket to a specific port
number. This has the effect of registering the server with the system to receive all data destined for that port.
A client can then rendezvous with the server at the server's port, as illustrated here:

Definition: The TCP and UDP protocols use ports to map incoming data to a particular process
running on a computer.

In datagram-based communication such as UDP, the datagram packet contains the port number of its
destination and UDP routes the packet to the appropriate application, as illustrated in this figure:

Port numbers range from 0 to 65,535 because ports are represented by 16-bit numbers. The port numbers
ranging from 0 - 1023 are restricted; they are reserved for use by well-known services such as HTTP and FTP
and other system services. These ports are called well-known ports. Your applications should not attempt to
bind to them.

Understanding Sockets

In client-server applications, the server provides some service, such as processing database queries or sending
out current stock prices. The client uses the service provided by the server, either displaying database query
results to the user or making stock purchase recommendations to an investor. The communication that occurs
between the client and the server must be reliable. That is, no data can be dropped and it must arrive on the
client side in the same order in which the server sent it.



TCP provides a reliable, point-to-point communication channel that client-server applications on the Internet
use to communicate with each other. To communicate over TCP, a client program and a server program
establish a connection to one another. Each program binds a socket to its end of the connection. To
communicate, the client and the server each reads from and writes to the socket bound to the connection.

What Is a Socket?
A socket is one end-point of a two-way communication link between two programs running on the network.
Socket classes are used to represent the connection between a client program and a server program. The
java.net package provides two classes--Socket and ServerSocket--that implement the client side of the
connection and the server side of the connection, respectively.
