TCP/IP = The Internet Protocol Suite

Next Slide

IP IS THE FOUNDATION FOR A COLLECTION OF PROTOCOLS THAT SPECIFY THE RULES FOR COMMUNICATING THROUGH THE INTERNET.

ICMP

INTERNET CONTROL MESSAGE PROTOCOL
UDP USER DATAGRAM PROTOCOL
TCP TRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL
SMTP SIMPLE MAIL TRANSFER PROTOCOL
