Ip is the protocol that figures out how to get data to a certain location on the network.
TCP is the protocol that breaks the data down and gets it ready to be transported. And then again on the other computer, TCP is what builds up the data into its original format before it got broken down by TCP on the first computer.
IP is a particular system address on the internet and TCP is the transfer control protocol of the system.
what are the similarties between IP and TCP protocol in data communication and networking.
TCP is a sub-protocol within the IP protocol. Think of TCP as one of the instruments in a band.
The Transport layer
No, TCP/IP is the not the only protocol used in the world, but it is certainly one of the most popular. Older networks may still use IPX/SPX (Novell) which is a competitor to TCP/IP. Mainframes use SNA or LU6.2 protocols which are very different from TCP/IP. Appletalk is also a competitor to TCP/IP.
TCP and IP are examples of protocols - a common set of agreed upon rules for communications between networks and devices.
TCP/IP because the osi model has seven layer but in tcp/ip only four layers and most important is that the tcp/ip model is reduce the function of osi model.
TCP/IP first
tcp/ip is good....
What do you mean with "TCP/IP programs"? Any program that communicates over the Internet uses TCP/IP protocols. I want to say that activities of TCP/IP protocols should be manipulate.
In the commonly used TCP/IP communications, that would either be a TCP header, or a UDP header.In the commonly used TCP/IP communications, that would either be a TCP header, or a UDP header.In the commonly used TCP/IP communications, that would either be a TCP header, or a UDP header.In the commonly used TCP/IP communications, that would either be a TCP header, or a UDP header.
