TCP/IP

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP a.k.a TCP/IP) Is a protocol of the internet protocol suite. Using TCP, networked hosts can make connections to each other, so tehy can transfer steams of data. The protocol guarantees reliable and in order delivery of data from sender to receiver. TCP also makes out data for a few connections by Web server, e-mail servers etc running on the same host.
TCP supports many of the Internet's most popular protocols and resulting applications, including the World Wide Web, e-mail, File Transfer Protocol and Secure Shell.
