IP is the protocol which oversees the transmission of information packets from one machine to another. TCP makes sure the packets have arrived and that the message is complete. These two protocols are the basic language of the Internet, and are often referred to together as TCP/IP.
Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol - A computer "language" that allows for transmission, or "publishing," of information across the Internet.
(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). This is the name for two of the most well-known protocols developed by the U.S. Department of Defense in the 1970s to allow equipment from different vendors to communicate. Originally a UNIX standard, TCP/IP is now supported on almost all platforms, and is the protocol of the Internet. IP represents the scheme by which two devices (both with IP addresses) communicate.

TCP/IP is a combined set of protocols that performs the transfer of data between two computers. TCP monitors and ensures correct transfer of data. IP receives the data from TCP, breaks it up into packets and ships it off to a network within the Internet. TCP/IP is also used as a name for protocol suite that incorporates these functions and others. It makes possible the interconnection of a variety of hardware platforms.
ransmission ontrol rotocol/ nternet rotocol. These two protocols are what make the Internet work.

In contrast, both NetWare and Windows NT Server like to use their own protocols, which were developed by Novell and Microsoft, respectively. TCP/IP works with whatever network cabling you already have installed. Thus, you can run TCP/IP on your existing Ethernet network cables. TCP/IP doesn't conflict with NetWare or Windows NT Server protocols. Thus, you can run NetWare, Windows NT Server, and TCP/IP networks together, over the same cables, at the same time. To build a TCP/IP network, all you need to add are software drivers to the computers that you want to participate in the TCP/IP network. You don't have to purchase special network cards or other hardware.

When the Internet was created in the 1960's, TCP/IP was designed so if one of the supercomputers was blown up by a ICBM or something, the protocol would "sense" the absence of the computer and route the data accordingly. Today TCP/IP still completes this basic function, except it goes faster when doing it. TCP controls the way you get data from the servers, and IP actually figures out the way from the server to your computer.

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet (working) Protocol. A standard set of rules which allows computers on different networks to communicate with one another. The Internet came into being with the development and adoption of TCP/IP.
The underlying technology of Internet communications. While IP handles the actual delivery of data, TCP tracks the data packets to efficiently route a message through the Internet. Every computer in a TCP/IP network has its own IP address that is either dynamically assigned at startup (See DHCP) or permanently assigned as a static address. All TCP/IP messages contain the address of the destination network, as well as the address of the destination station. This enables TCP/IP messages to be transmitted to multiple networks (subnets) within an organization or worldwide. For example, when a user downloads a web page, TCP divides the page file on the web server into packets, numbers the packets, and forwards them individually to the user's IP address. The packets may be routed along different paths before reaching the user's address. At the destination, TCP reassembles the individual packets, waiting until they have all arrived to present them as a single file. (See IP, IP address, packet, TCP). close
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. A widely used network communication protocol on microcomputer, mini-computer, and mainframe networks. The TCP/IP protocol stack consists of four layers: the link, the network, transport, and application layers. Each layer of the stack matches different aspects of the transmission. Information must pass first through the link layer which consists of networking hardware and device drivers such as network interface hard-drivers. The network layer is where the IP resides. The transport layer is where the TCP resides. The application layer is where the Internet user interacts with the network through client applications such as web browsers. IP is needed on the Internet for reliable communications for transmitting datagrams across Internet networks. TCP is responsible for breaking up datagrams into manageable sizes (packets) reassembling datagrams at the destination and re-sending datagrams if a transmission error has occurred.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Transport Control Protocol??/Internet Protocol. This is a way of sending data accress a network by breaking it up in packets. The receiving computer then replies which packets did not get through and the originating computer re-sends them. TCP/IP packets get a time to live (TTL) value, which means that as they make their way across the network, each node (or computer) they go through reduces their TTL by one. When the TTL is used up, and the packet didn't reach its destination, it dies and is no longer propagated. This prevents the network from becoming clogged with stranded/old data packets.

(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol): the underlying communication language or protocol of the Internet. The "TCP" portion provides the transport functions, which manage the assembling of a message into smaller packets that are transmitted over the Internet and received by a TCP layer. The TCP layer on the receiving end reassembles the packets into the original message. The "IP" portion handles the address part of each packet so that it gets to the right destination. Each gateway computer on the network checks the address to see where to forward the message. TCP/IP messages are routable meaning the messages can be sent to multiple networks within an organization or around the world, hence its use in the World Wide Web. Higher layer application protocols including HTTP, FTP, Telnet, and SMTP use TCP/IP to access the Internet. These and other protocols are often packaged together with TCP/IP as a "suite."

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol; This is essentially the Internet’s most common transmission protocol, and can broadly be described as the first-language of the Internet. IP (Internet Protocol) is simply the method for forming and then routing “packets” of data; TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) adds three critical functions: Packet Sequencing. TCP gives each “packet” of a data a number, so that all packets will be properly reassembled at the receiver. Reliability. TCP ensures that all “packets” of data sent off actually arrive there by requesting retransmission of the packets if they get lost. Flow Control. When the Internet becomes clogged, all travelling data is expected to retreat somewhat to allow fair use of the available space. TCP allows the data to do this.

Once received, packets are reassembled by TCP. TCP/IP is used with other protocols on the Internet, such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP).
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol - this protocol is the very foundation of the Internet. Computers using TCP/IP protocol to enable communication between different types of computers and networks. It is used to transmit other Internet protocols, such as FTP, Gopher and HTTP.

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. A communications protocol developed to network dissimilar systems. This is an Internet protocol that has become the global standard for communications. Whereas the IP protocol deals only with packets, TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent. Every client and server in a TCP/IP network requires an IP address that is either permanently assigned or dynamically assigned at startup.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. A set of computer-to-computer communications protocols first developed for the Defencse Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in the late 1970's. The set of TCP/IP protocols encompass media access, packet transport, session communications, file transfer, e-mail, and terminal emulation. TCP/IP is supported by a very large number of hardware and software vendors, and is available on many different computers from PCs to mainframes. Many corporations, universities, and government agencies use TCP/IP, and it is also the foundation of the Internet.

The language used by computers to transmit data on the Internet.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. A set of protocols that are used by computers on the Internet to communicate with each other. It is used by all computers on the Internet or any Intranet.
The TCP/IP standard transport level protocol that provides the reliable, full duplex, stream service on which many application protocols depend. TCP allows a process on one machine to send a stream of data to a process on another. TCP is connection-oriented in the sense that before transmitting data, participants must establish a connection. All data travels in TCP segments, which each travel across the Internet in an IP datagram. The entire protocol suite is often referred to as TCP/IP because TCP and IP are the two fundamental protocols.
(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) TCP is one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks (including SuperNet). Whereas the IP protocol deals only with packets (a message on the network is divided and transmitted in "packets," which are re-compiled into the original message once all the packets reach the message destination), TCP enables two computer systems to establish a connectioon and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they are sent.
(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) The agreed-on set of computer communications rules and standards that allows communications between different types of computers and networks that are connected to the Internet.
A communication "protocol" which is used for all communications and information travel over the Internet. Electronic information to be sent over the network is first broken into "packets" which are sent one-at-a-time to their destination IP address (where they are reassembled and converted back into their original document form). Rod was interested in hooking up his home computer to the Internet so he first downloaded the Winsock TCP/IP program and installed it on his computer.

Abbreviation of ransmission ontrol rotocol/ nternet rotocol, and pronounced as separate letters. TCP is one of the main protocols in TCP/IP networks. IP by itself is something like the postal system. It allows you to address a package and drop it in the system, but there's no direct link between you and the recipient. TCP/IP, on the other hand, establishes a connection between two hosts so that they can send messages back and forth for a period of time. TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets will be delivered in the same order in which they were sent.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The standard for communication from one Internet computer to another.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. Transmission Control Protocol provides reliable transmission of data. Internet Protocol is the network layer product that offers a connectionless inter-network service. [Source: York Telecom] TCP specifies how packets addressed using IP travel to their destination, by creating a virtual connection between the sending and receiving sites. Think of it as your two hands, holding the two ends of the communication path. Whether the path goes directly across your arms or makes a detour through both legs along the way, TCP makes sure that the two ends don’t lose each other.
