Everything about Bbn Report 1822 totally explained
BBN Report 1822 specifies the method for connecting a host computer to an
ARPANET router, called an
Interface Message Processor (IMP). This connection and protocol is generally referred to as
1822, the report number.
The initial version of the 1822 protocol was developed in 1969: since it predates the
OSI model by a decade, 1822 doesn't map cleanly into the OSI layers. However, it's accurate to say that the 1822 protocol incorporates the
physical layer, the
data link layer, and the
network layer. The interface visible to the host system passes network layer addresses directly to a physical layer device.
To transmit data, the host constructs a message containing the numeric address of another host on the network (similar to an
IP address on the
Internet) and a data field, and transmits the message across the 1822 interface to the IMP. The IMP routes the message to the destination host using protocols that were eventually adopted by
Internet routers.
While
packets transmitted across the Internet are assumed to be unreliable, 1822 messages were guaranteed to be transmitted reliably to the addressed destination. If the message couldn't be delivered, the IMP sent the originating host a message indicating that the delivery failed. In practice, however, there were (rare) conditions under which the host could miss a report of a message being lost, or under which the IMP could report a message as lost when it had in fact been received.
