TCP/IP

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. It is quite simply a standard set of

 

protocols that govern the basic workings of the Internet that was implemented in 1982.

 

The TCP part is all about ensuring that data is transmitted correctly between 2 computers. If any errors

 

occur these are detected & the data is retransmitted. The data transmitted is split up into small portions

 

called Data packets. The IP part of TCP/IP is how these data packets are moved from one point to another.

 

Each computer on the internet has a unique IP address & the data packets are moved from the source to

 

the destination through many different computers & this is controlled via TCP/IP. This protocol is used on

 

the Internet & also by computers which are part of a LAN.
