TCP

TCP is an acronym for Transmission Control Protocol. It is a communications protocol that uses the Internet Protocol

(IP) to exchange the messages between computers.

The TCP protocol guarantees reliable and in-order delivery of data from sender to receiver and distinguishes data for

multiple connections by concurrent applications (for example, Web server and e-mail server) running on the same

host.

The applications on networked hosts can use TCP to create connections to one another. It is known as a

connection-oriented protocol, which means that a connection is established and maintained until such time as the

message or messages to be exchanged by the application programs at each end have been exchanged. TCP is

responsible for ensuring that a message is divided into the packets that IP manages and for reassembling the packets

back into the complete message at the other end.

Common network applications that use TCP include the World Wide Web (WWW), e-mail, and File Transfer Protocol

(FTP).

enter commands through the Telnet program just as if they were entering commands directly on the server console.
