Is DNS connectionless or connection-oriented?

DHCP is a connectionless protocols. In general, any protocol that is based on TCP port alone is a connection-oriented protocol while any protocol that is based on UDP port alone is a connectionless protocol. And a protocols that can work on both TCP and UDP port can be either a connection-oriented or a connectionless protocol depending upon the which protocol is used (TCP or UDP). For checking other protocols if they are connection-oriented or connectionless check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers

Explain the difference between a connection-oriented protocol and a connectionless protocol and give an example of each?

Different from a connectionless protocol, a connection-oriented protocol guaranties the delivery of the information. An example of connection-oriented protocol is (TCP) and a connectionless protocol is (UDP). TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, it makes a connection and checks whether the data is received, and resends if it is not. UDP is a connectionless protocol, it does not guarantee delivery by first connecting and checking whether data is received.


Is FTP connectionless or connection-oriented?

If FTP did not have TCP working with it, it could be considered connectionless. TCP is connection oriented and it verifies the FTP transfers have been received. Therefore it is considered Connection Oriented. If FTP used UDP it would be considered connectionless as UDP just sends the data and never checks to see if it all made it to the recipient -

What is NetWare connectionless protocol?

First let me explain the difference between connection oriented and connectioinless oriented. We'll use you as an example, Lets say you want to send an email to your friend in Australia. You need a system called a protocol to set up your system before you send the message. First a connection has to be made with your buddies Internet supplier, then once the connection is made you can send your email, then you want to make sure he got your email and then you want to end the session so someone else can use the system. On a connection protocol, the protocol first establishes a connection, then waits for a signal from the receiver to make sure the system is clear, then the data is sent, then it waits for a signal to say the data was received, then the session is closed. On a connectionless protocol, the session is established, the data is sent, and then the session is closed. So there is no confirmation if the data was received. That is what connectionless means, Netware uses a Transport protocol called IPX which is a connectionless protocol. So that is where the name came from.
