Question
TCP (Transport Control Protocol) is a transport layer protocol that offers full duplex, connection-oriented, and trustworthy delivery services at the transport layer. When we talk about full duplex, reliable transmission, and connection-oriented communication, what do we mean? So, what exactly do we mean when we talk about connections, resiliency in delivery, and full duplex?

- The services provided by two different transport-layer protocols may be used by certain application applications (UDP or TCP). So, how can a computer tell which transport layer is handling the delivery of a packet?arrow_forwardCompare and contrast SMTP and HTTP, two widely used application protocols.Explain what "HTTP" means and how it works.Could you tell me what port it uses for connections?The abbreviations for "Transmission Control Protocol" and "User Datagram Protocol" are "TCP" and "UDP," respectively. To what extent do these scenarios have common variables?Can you describe the many kinds of networks that exist? Describe them quickly.arrow_forwardIP is a connectionless protocol, whereas TCP is connection-oriented. How can these two protocols live in the same stack the best manner possible?arrow_forward
- The original HTTP protocol used TCP/IP as the underlying network protocol. For each page, graphic, or applet, a separate TCP session was constructed, used, and torn down. Because of the overhead of building and destroying TCP/IP connections, performance problems resulted from this implementation method. Would using UDP rather than TCP be a good alternative? What other changes could you make to improve HTTP performance?arrow_forwardSee what makes SMTP different from HTTP in this analysis of application protocols.What does the acronym HTTP stand for, and how does it work?I need to know what port it uses for transmission.Both Transmission Control Protocol and User Datagram Protocol may be abbreviated to TCP or UDP. In each of these cases, what factors must be considered?So, how many distinct varieties of 'network' are there? Give a succinct summary of what you know about each.arrow_forwardTCP allows for uninterrupted, two-way communication. What do you mean by the terms "full-duplex," "connection-oriented," and "reliable delivery"?arrow_forward
- Consider each layer of the TCP/IP protocol stack and order them from most important to least. Can one or more of these layers be combined or separated? Would the kind of information being sent affect how you order, and if so, why or why not? Why did you decide to place your order that way? To assist you, use the following scale: The most important component is represented by 1, while the least important factor is represented by 5.arrow_forwardTwo transport-layer protocols offer services that certain applications may make use of (UDP or TCP). So, when a packet arrives at its destination, how can a computer tell which transport layer is involved?arrow_forwardWhen it comes to offering services, TCP is a dependable and full-duplex transport layer protocol. What do the terms "full-duplex," "connection-oriented," and "reliable delivery" all imply?arrow_forward
- In the transport layer, TCP offers full duplex, connection-oriented and dependable delivery services. TCP is a transport protocol. We use the terms connection-oriented, dependable delivery, and full duplex interchangeably, but what exactly do they mean?arrow_forwardConsider connectionless protocols as a possible replacement for connection-based protocols and evaluate their benefits and drawbacks.arrow_forward
