Digital data refers to information that has ______ states.
Digital data refers to information that has ______ states.
The transport layer at the source host gets the message from the application layer, encapsulates it in a transport layer packet and sends it to the transport layer at the destination host. This process is responsible for giving services to the application layer, delivering the message from the source host to the destination host. In other words, the transport layer is responsible for end-to-end connection between the two ________ layers.
The transport layer at the source host gets the message from the application layer, encapsulates it in a transport layer packet and sends it to the transport layer at the destination host. This process is responsible for giving services to the application layer, delivering the message from the source host to the destination host. In other words, the transport layer is responsible for end-to-end connection between the two ________ layers.
