• Disassemble the actual data (pay load) in to packet
of fixed size bytes from the source computer or node.
• Assemble received packets back to the actual data
(its original form).
• Sending /receiving packets In order (FIFO),no
missing packet and no duplicate packets If packet is
missed TCP is responsible to resend
• If packet is missed ,TCP is responsible to resend
(Data can be lost in intermediate network )
• If packet is duplicated, TCP is responsible to
truncate
• Handle error.
