TCP protocols

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a connection-oriented, reliable protocol used to establish a communication channel between two devices, ensuring data is transmitted accurately and in the correct order. It's a crucial part of the TCP/IP protocol suite, working alongside IP (Internet Protocol) to facilitate data transfer over networks. How TCP Works: Connection Establishment: The sender and receiver establish a connection using the three-way handshake. Data Segmentation: The sender breaks the data into segments, adds TCP headers, and sends them across the network. Data Transmission: IP handles the routing of these segments across the network. Reassembly: The receiver reassembles the segments into the original data stream. Acknowledgement: TCP uses acknowledgements (ACKs) to confirm that segments have been received correctly, and retransmits lost or corrupted segments. Connection Termination: Once the data transmission is complete, the connection is terminated using a four-way handshake

How TCP Works:

Connection Establishment: The sender and receiver establish a connection using the three-way handshake.

Data Segmentation: The sender breaks the data into segments, adds TCP headers, and sends them across the network.

Data Transmission: IP handles the routing of these segments across the network.

Reassembly: The receiver reassembles the segments into the original data stream.

Acknowledgement: TCP uses acknowledgements (ACKs) to confirm that segments have been received correctly, and retransmits lost or corrupted segments.

Connection Termination: Once the data transmission is complete, the connection is terminated using a four-way handshake
