It's very detailed. TCP and IPX are protocals that sort your data into a certain pattern so that you can transmit it over your line (phone, cable, ethernet, etc). The receiver than recongnized this specific pattern and can re-assemble the data back into it's original format. TCP and IPX are just types of patterns that are used to send data. TCP is used for your internet connection and your LAN. IPX is an older protocol that is dying out. It is still used in some video game interfaces. There is much more detail in the the exact way they organize data. I'm sure there are reports on this subject you can find on Google.

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.


Is TCP IP used for everything?

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.


Has TC PIP replaced that protocol in the general usage or did another protocol replace it?

TCP/IP is the protocol used for the Internet. It will not be replaced anytime soon, it replaced a protocol called IPX/SPX which was used by Novell. But TCP/IP is here to stay.

What reason might you use multiple frame types on a network?

If you use several different protocols (such as TCP/IP and IPX/SPX or Appletalk) then the frame types will be different. Networks can (and do) utilize several different protocols depending on what they need to talk to as clients.
