TCP/IP
See
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.
Telnet
A network terminal protocol employed with TCP/IP that allows computer
users to log on to other computers in the same network or remote network.
Topology
The physical picture of how the wires or cables are laid out in local area
networks (LANs). The logical topology describes how the messages flow.
Most networks are physically laid out as a star, but may logically be a bus or
ring.
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
A reliable connection-oriented protocol that allows a byte stream originating
on one machine to be delivered without error on any other machine on the
Internet. The protocol fragments the incoming byte stream into discrete
messages and passes each one onto the Internet layer. At the destination, the
receiving TCP process reassembles the received messages into the output
stream. TCP also handles flow control to ensure a fast sender cannot swamp a
slow receiver with more messages than it can handle.
Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP)
The two most widely used networking protocols, often mistaken for a single
protocol. TCP corresponds to the transport layer (Layer 4 of the OSI model)
and is responsible for the reliable transmission of data. IP corresponds to the
network layer (Layer 3) and provides for the connectionless service of data
transmission.
