The internet uses TCP/IP(Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) to transmit data via various types of media. TCP/IP is not a single networking protocol – it is a suite of protocols named after the two most important protocols or layers within it – TCP and IP. As with any form of communication, two things are needed: a message to transmit and the means to reliably transmit the message. The internet protocol (IP) addressing system is used to keep track of millions of users.
