GTS Comms Evolution
• Asynchronous to X.25 to IP
• X.25 saw the introduction of error detection
and correction.
• The advantages of TCP/IP include cost,
simplicity and the ability to use a range of
high level (application) protocols.

TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
IP Addresses
• Must have public addresses for inter-agency
communications.
• Private addresses may be used within your
organisation.
• Network Address Translation (NAT) is used
to convert between private and public
addresses
• WMO allocates public addresses for GTS:
possible allocation for hosts, but cannot be
used for Internet connection.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
IP addresses (cont.)
• GTS Allocation: 193.105.177.0 to
193.105.184.0
• Private address allocations:
– 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
– 172.16.0.0 to 172.16.255.255
– 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
• Subnet Mask: 2 ways to refer top this
– 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
– 192.168.1.1/24
• /24 = 11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000

TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Routing
• Two types of routing: Static and Dynamic
• An internal routing protocol is used within
your network.
• The GTS uses BGP for routing (static routes
can sometimes be used for stub networks)
• ATTACHMENT II-15
Use of TCP/IP on the GTS give examples of
setting up BGP Routing on a Cisco router –
does not cover use of NAT.

TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
BGP
• Used by WMO on GTS
• Uses a tcp connection on port 179 between
to routers to send updates.
• Each Network is given an Autonomous
System (AS) number.
• WMO have allocated AS numbers out of the
private AS address range for the GTS
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
GTS AS Numbers
• Private range: 64512 through 65535
• MTN Centres and reserve: 64512 to
64639
• RA I: 64640 to 64767
• RA II: 64768 to 64895
• RA III: 64896 to 65023
• RA IV: 65024 to 65151
• RA V: 65152 to 65279
• RA VI: 65280 to 65407
• Antarctic and reserve: 65408 to 65535
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Local BGP links
• Allocate AS numbers for private links out of
range: 65472 to 65535
• All GTS should not route this range.

NAT
• Static and Dynamic
• Static needed for GTS so that hosts inside
the network can be contacted and for
security.
• NAT addresses must appear in BGP routing
table.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
TCP overview
• Connection oriented and reliable.
• TCP uses a port number to define
connections
• Connection defined by source IP
address/source port and destination IP
address and destination port
• Can have multiple connections to the same
TCP port number

UDP
• Connectionless not reliable
• Not used for GTS transfers
• Examples: used for network management
(SNMP), voice data
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
FTP
• Uses 2 TCP connections: Control (port 21)
and data (port 20)
• Two modes: normal and passive.
• Used for transferring files.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
FTP Operation
Normal
Client  host - connects to port 21
Client  host “give me file on port 2345
Client/2345  host/20 –connects to port 2345
Passive
Client  host - connects to port 21
Client  host “give me file on port 2345
Client  host/2345 –connects to port 2345

WMO Standards
• FTP transfer
• Socket Connections
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
WMO Socket Connections
• WMO Use TCP ports > 10000
– Suggest that use ports > 30000
• Use separate sockets for ASCII and Binary
data and separate sockets for transmit and
receive.
• Maintain socket connection
• Old sockets should be closed when a new
connection to the same port from the same
host occurs – avoids problems with
connection loss.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
WMO Sockets Continued
• Use CSN (channel sequence numbers)
manditory – recommend 5 character CSN
• Each message is preceded by a message
length field of eight ASCII characters and a
message type field of two ASCII characters.
– BI for binary, AN for alphanumeric or FX for
facsimile

WMO FTP Procedures
• Procedures for accumulating messages into files
so as to minimise FTP overheads with short
messages (applies only to existing message types);
• file naming conventions for existing message
types (existing AHL);
• file renaming;
• use of directories;
• account names and passwords;
• FTP sessions;
• Local FTP requirements
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Accumulating messages into files
• Multiple messages in the one file
• Messages should be accumulated in files
thus:

–
length indicator, message 1 (8 characters);
format identifier (2 characters);

TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
File naming conventions
• CCCCNNNNNNNN.ext where:
– CCCC is the international four letter location identifier
of the sending Centre, as defined in WMO publication
No. 9, Volume C;
– NNNNNNNN is a sequential number from 0 to
99999999 generated by the sending Centre;
– ext is
– ‘ua’ for urgent alpha numeric information
– ‘ub’ for urgent binary information
– ‘a’ for normal alpha numeric information
– ‘b’ for normal binary information
– ‘f’ for facsimile information
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
File renaming
• most centres detect the presence of a new file by
scanning a directory.
• To avoid problems with the receiving centre
processing a file before it has completely arrived,
all sending centres must be able to remotely
rename the files they send
• The file shall be sent with the extent ‘.tmp’ and
then renamed
• Recommended that a separate directory be used
for each host system which is initiating FTP
sessions to avoid the possibility of filename
duplication
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
General FTP “Rules”
• Anonymous FTP may be used, but not on
servers accessible from the Internet
• To Limit load, only one ftp session per
centre per file type
• receiving Centres to delete files after they
have been processed
• Do not use compression of files.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
FTP suggestions
• Use format identifier “00”
– This allows the WMO request/repeat service to recover
missing data.
• Use filename of *.b to exchange alphanumeric or
binary messages
– CCCCNNNNNNNN.b - for alpha numeric and binary
– CCCCNNNNNNNN.f - for facsimile (FAX T.4)
• Send one T4 chart in each file
• Send up to 100 messages in a file but do not delay
sending a message for more than 60 seconds.
• Read incoming files at least every minute.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Socket/FTP Comparison
• Sockets:
– Quick, low overhead
– Requires programming
– Request/Repeat system can be slow
• FTP
– More Delays
– Standard clients (less programming)
– Easy to see failures and repeat transmission.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Checklist for GTS link
• Link requirements:
– 1.
Get link addresses and private AS
numbers from WMO
– 2.
Agree whether to use BGP or not
– 3.
Establish connectivity between routers.
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Checklist for GTS link cont.
• Use only official IP addresses
• Exchange details on host names.
• Declare which IP addresses in your Centre are
eligible to use the GTS.
• Establish an IP connection with one or more
Centres.
• Configure dynamic routing with BGP (or static
routing)
• Obtain an autonomous-system number
• Check the barrier between Internet and the GTS
• Filter incoming and outgoing traffic in accordance
with the requirements described above
TCP/IP procedures and application for the GTS
Checklist for GTS link cont.
• WMO socket requirements:
– Define socket/port numbers to receive on
– Agree on 3 or 5 digit sequence numbers
• FTP requirements:
– Exchange user-id and password of receive accounts
– Exchange directory names
– Agree on format identifier – preferably “00” (include
WMO header/trailer)
– Agree on filenames. Suggest:
– Exchange information on maximum messages to be in a
file and delays before sending a file and delays before
reading a file (not essential but is useful information)
– Agree on 3 or 5 digit sequence numbers
