Study Notes

TCP/IP Model

  • TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is responsible for a reliable, simultaneous, full duplex connection.

Protocol Comparison

  • UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is less robust than TCP and can be used by applications that do not require reliability at the Host-to-Host layer.

TCP/IP Layers

  • The Transport Layer is also called the Host-to-Host Layer.

TCP Reliability

  • In the context of TCP, 'reliable' means ensuring that data is delivered in the correct order and retransmitting lost packets.

Application Layer

  • The Application Layer provides applications that use TCP and UDP.
  • FTP (File Transfer Protocol) operates at the Application Layer for file transfer.

Data Encapsulation

  • The Internet Layer encapsulates the data transmitted by a host in the TCP/IP model.
  • The Transport Layer Protocol encapsulates the data to be transmitted, adding a header with source and destination port numbers.

Data Reception

  • When the encapsulated data is received by the remote host, the receiving end decapsulates the data, removing the headers and transporting the data to the receiving application.

Model History

  • The TCP/IP model was first implemented, giving rise to the OSI model and TCP/IP model.

OSI Model

  • The OSI model has 7 layers.
  • The OSI model supports only connection-oriented communication in the Transport layer.
