Routed protocols are the best paths in a network along which to send network traffic.
IPv4 and IPv6 are two different protocols . The two protocols are not compatible with each other. But they can exist in a same network together.No, those are two different protocols. However, they can co-exist in the same network (this is known as "dual stack").No, those are two different protocols.

Put the NIC in the PC, and install the NIC's drivers. Configure the NIC using Windows, so that it has the appropriate addresses on the network and the correct network protocols. Test the NIC to verify that the PC can access resources on the network.
A protocol is a set of rules describing some behavior. In order to communicate in a common manner, the sender and receiver have to agree on the "language" of communication. A protocol states what those rules are, and because they are a standard, everyone agrees and knows what to expect.
The network layer protocol is Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
