A protocol is the special set of rules that end points in a Network connection use when they communicate. Protocols specify interactions between the communicating entities; in other word it is a set of rules that governs data communications. A protocol defines what is communicated, how it is communicated, and when it is communicated. The TCP/IP Internet protocol is a common example protocol. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), which uses a set of rules to exchange messages with ______ other Internet points at the information packet level address level Internet Protocol (IP), which uses a set of rules to send and receive messages at the Internet. Additional protocols that include the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and File Transfer Protocol (FTP), each with defined sets of rules to use with corresponding programs elsewhere on the Internet. The key elements of a protocol are: Syntax: refers to the structure or format of the data. Semantics: refers to the meaning of each section of bits. Timing: refers to when data should be sent and how fast they can be sent.
