TCP/IP Protocol
TCP/IP = Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The basic communication method for the internet. TCP is used for organizing the data in pockets and sending them. The IP protocol is used to make sure the packets get to the right place by sending it to the correct IP address through routers. The TCP/IP is a client/server protocol. A client requests the information, and the server provides it by sending it back to the client.
