O_H 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2007 TCPIP is the defacto standard in conventional communications between computers. This is the basis of the existence of the internet.Here, this should help. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCPIPSubnetting is a technique to divide computer networks into managable segments, to prevent excessive usage of the IP address octets.

jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted February 5, 2007 What is your view about TCP/IP? Can you give other factors related to TCP/IP? What are the uses and contributions? Kindly give examples. How about subnetting? Thanks. Notice from jlhaslip: The What Is? topic is for providing answers to the question posed, as per the second posting of this topic. Please read the Pinned topics at the top of the page for a more complete definition of what is expected in this Forum, and also read the Xisto readme file. Thanks.

techclave 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2007 TCP stands for Transfer Control Protocol and IP stands for Internet Protocol. TCP: Transfer Control Protocol is used for establishing connections between the client and the server. So, it deals with security and reliability .. IP: Internet Protocol is responsible for addressing the packets,. Like, where they have to be sent, through which route incase there are many switching nodes present. So, Ip is responsible for addressing and routing purposes .

prashrb 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2007 TCP/IP in more technically way a connection oriented communication link.There's another protocol called UDP (User Defined Protocol) which is a connectionless protocolTC/ IP in brief:The Internet protocol suite is the set of communications protocols that implements the protocol stack on which the Internet and many commercial networks run. It is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite, which is named after two of the most important protocols in it: the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), which were also the first two networking protocols defined. A review of TCP/IP is given under that heading. Note that today's TCP/IP networking represents a synthesis of two developments that began in the 1970's, namely LAN's (Local Area Networks) and the Internet, that revolutionalised computing.and I hope, this link will helphttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about subnetting? Thanks.TCP/IP (Transmission control protocol / Internet protocol) is primary internet protocol, for connect minimal two computers (for example in local network in your house).
