Architectural & Functional overview is gone through from the link "http://tipc.sourceforge.net/doc/draft-spec-tipc-07.html".

1) Gone Through TIPC Features and Port-Based Communication from the link "http://tipc.sourceforge.net/doc/draft-spec-tipc-07.html". 2) Downloaded Latest TIPC module source code from "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git" and gone through the port and port identity and port reference table code in addr.c, port.c and ref.c file to understand the TIPC data structures/terminology. 3) Need to go through connection establishment and send/recv packet code.

1) Gone Through Links and Neighbor Detection from the link "http://tipc.sourceforge.net/doc/draft-spec-tipc-07.html".

2) Need further analysis by capturing TIPC packets for node discovery and message exchanges.

1) Captured TIPC packets and analyzed following packet types.

Neighbor Discover Request/Response Link State Activate/Reset/State Name Table Update Payload Data
