Yes TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/internet Protocol) is the basic communication language or protocol of the Internet. It can also be used as a communications protocol in a private When you are set up with direct access to the Internet, your computer is provided with a copy of the TCP/IP program just as every other computer that you may send messages to or get information from also has a copy of TCP/IP.

Question: What is the set of protocols used by the Internet called? Answers: a) DNS b) SMTP c) TCP/IP d) All of these
What is the basic protocol that allows all computers on the Internet send and receive data to each other?
The basic protocol that allows all computers to interact on the internet is TCP/IP.
What is the basic protocolthat allows all computers on the internet to interact?
tcp/ip
What is the technical rule that all computers must obey in order to succesfully connect to the internet?

Compare the osi model and tcp-ip model and their associative protocols?
The OSI model encompasses all of the TCP/IP sub-protocols plus several other protocols that are not part of TCP/IP. These would include IPX/SPX, NetBEUI, Appletalk, and other proprietary protocols that are not part of the TCP/IP model.
What refers to the technical rules that all computers must obey in order to sucssesfuly connect to the internet?
TCP/IP v4 and TCP/IP v6
What is interent?
The internet is a system of connected computer network. The internet uses TCP/IP protocol to link all the connected computers.
Which protocol is accessed greatest numbers of user on internet --ftp http udp tcp?
IP is the greatest used protocol on the internet. It IS the internet. The protocols on the internet can be looked at as being done in layers, with IP at the bottom (usually) . TCP and UDP are other connections which rely on the underlying IP network to communication, with TCP being the most commonly used since it offers an end to end connection for the protocols above it (UDP is a connectionless, best effort protocol) Finally, using TCP, we have the remaining protocols such as ftp, http and others. Not many higher layer protocols will use UDP since there is no garuntee that data is deliverd to its desitination correctly. A quick example of a protocol using UDP would be a DNS request. What little abbreviations are hidden in asterisks??****//www.google.com****//www.wikianswers.com****//www.hotmail.com****//www.myspace.comId imagine http is the most common. Then again I know there's alot of people who spend all their time uploading and downloading torrent after torrent.Incase you or somebody else reading this doesnt know whats behind the asterisks: its http----HTTP is definitely the most common; however, out of the protocols you listed TCP is more common simply because all HTTP communication uses TCP as well, and other protocols such as FTP also use TCP.
Which protocol is used by internet to view webpage?
HTTP and HTTPS are the only "internet protocols" which are used to "browse". (Provided you define "browsing" as "view websites".) HTTP and HTTPS usually depend on TCP to deliver websites to the visitor. TCP itself uses IP for routing. IP is the underlying Internet protocol to move information across the network. It handles data as "packets" that a computer can send and receive. The internet protocol connects two computers by routing their respective packages through intermediate computers. IP cannot make sure that all data is correctly routed. TCP (on top of IP) keeps a list of packages and makes sure that a transfer is complete. HTTP (on top of TCP) contains the actual website.
Why is TCP IP often called a protocol stack rather than a protocol suite?
The protocol stack used on the Internet is the Internet Protocol Suite. It is usuallycalled TCP/IP after two of its most prominent protocols, but there are other protocolsas well. The TCP/IP model is based on a fi ve-layer model for networking. Frombottom (the link) to top (the user application), these are the physical, data link, network,transport, and application layers. Not all layers are completely defi ned by themodel, so these layers are "fi lled in" by external standards and protocols. The layershave names but no numbers, and although sometimes people speak of "Layer 2" or"Layer 3," these are not TCP/IP terms. Terms like these are actually from the OSI ReferenceModel.The TCP/IP stack is open, which means that there are no "secrets" as to how itworks. (There are "open systems" too, but with TCP/IP, the systems do not have to be"open" and often are not.) Two compatible end-system applications can communicateregardless of their underlying architectures, although the connections between layersare not defi ned.The term "protocol stack" is often used synonymously with "protocol suite" as animplementation of a reference model. However, the term "protocol suite" properlyrefers to a collection of all the protocols that can make up a layer in the referencemodel. The Internet protocol suite is an example of the Internet or TCP/IP referencemodel protocols, and a TCP/IP protocol stack implements one or more ofthese protocols at each layer.
What would be the effect on your overtaxed network if you reporgrammed all client and server appliation lyaer protocols to use UDP rather than TCP?
That would render most protocols useless. TCP provides the reliability that is required for many applications.
What is the most common protocol for computer networking?
ip - internet protocol. The Internet uses many layered protocols. The two protocols used the most are tcp/ip (tcp protocol on top of ip) and udp/ip (udp protocol on top of ip). Web browsers use tcp/ip. Email uses tcp/ip. Many web applications and games use udp/ip for broadcasting video, audio, and for multiplayer games. ip runs within/on yet many other base protocols. The most common protocol inside homes and business is ethernet. tcp/ip can run on ethernet and many other base protocols. Analogy: Think of shipping and boxes as protocols and packets. You might ship something in a box to another country. The address system on the box could be part of the ip protocol. Your box goes in a UPS truck (a bigger box - think ethernet packet holding your ip packet) with other boxes then goes to a distribution center (a router), then maybe into a container and on a ship (a different box - say FIOS fiber protocols). So tcp within ip within ethernet is like ups package within container on a container ship. In networks the containers can but don't always get bigger as you get onto the backbone - they tend instead to get faster. An ethernet packet might contain 2 different ip packets each which might have 2 tcp packets. More often it is a 1 to 1 relationship.
