Definition/elucidation of the tcp/ip protocol systems..

Answer / kunal

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol.TCP/IP is a set of protocols developed to allow
cooperating computers to share resources across a network.
It was developed by a community of researchers centered
around the ARPANET. Certainly the ARPANET is the best-known
TCP/IP network. However as of June, 87, at least 130
different vendors had products that support TCP/IP, and
thousands of networks of all kinds use it.
The Internet uses TCP/IP to link computers. TCP/IP stands
for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, which
are two significant parts of what is now also know as the
Internet Protocol Suite. The feature that makes TCP/IP
different from many other networking protocols is that it
was designed to link networks instead of just linking
computers in a network. The design of TCP/IP allows each
individual network to be managed separately, so different
organizations that do not wish to give complete network
access to each other (for instance a military research
department and an academic computer science department) can
still exchange information.
