TCP doesn't immediately acknowledge every single received TCP segment. If a single segment is received it is necessary to wait for 100-200ms on the assumption that the receiving application will probably generate a response of some kind. But if there is delay in sending acknowledgement by the receiver then the network is delayed.
The network delay is caused by "handshaking" or the connection-based protocol. This requires an answer (acknowledge) from every transmitted packet. Because the sender must wait for an answer before sending the next packet there will be a delay. The receiver has to indicate that the message was received correctly. In addition, if the packet is not received correctly then the sender must transmit it again. All of these can lead to delays.
Both TCP and IP are subprotocols in the OSI model. IP is used for routing purposes, whereas TCP is used for transport control. If you are asking primarily about internetworking then it would be the IP protocol.
It is established after the 3-way handshake is complete and the channel is open between a sender and a receiver.
TCP and IP protocols are used for different things. They were developed together and designed to be used together. IP is used for routing purposes. TCP is used for guaranteed reliable delivery (transport). They need each other to get packets from one place to another in a reliable fashion.
TCP uses the acknowledgement number in segments sent back to the source to indicate the next byte in this session that the receiver expects to receive. This is called expectational acknowledgement.
My Dish Network receiver is connected to my home LAN and the internet via TCP/IP for remote control of my DVR, on-demand movie downloads, etc. IIRC, there's a place in the Dish OnLine menu to get the receiver to request an IPv4 address from a DHCP server. If there's no IP address, then there's no remote control, online movies, etc. I'd bet that DirecTV has a similar setup.
The process of a TCP server is to receive TCP connections and handling the data correctly. The letters TCP in TCP server stands for transmission control protocol.
Ipert can be used for a number of purposes including the testing of the speed of a router. Ipert's main purpose in programming is to create UDP and TCP data.
The IP address and the subnet mask are required in layer 3 for routing purposes.
