Nowadays TCP/IP protocols are widely used for the iii. Difference between TCP and IP

enables the sending and receiving of data by
computers and other devices. Devices linked to the
internet can communicate with one another across
networks thanks to TCP/IP, also known as the
Internet Protocol and Transmission Control
Protocol. Whether it is a message, a picture, or a
file, all data delivered over the internet using the
TCP/IP architecture is divided into packets using a
four-layer process. On the receiving end, the data is
reconstructed by first going through these layers in
one order and then the other. The TCP/IP paradigm
works because every stage of the process is Figure 3. TCP/IP network

we are aware of how packets are transferred and
