What is the principle advantage of TCP/IP's modular design?
A1:
Because of TCP/IP's modular design, the TCP/IP protocol stack can adapt easily to specific hardware and operating environments.
Q2:
What functions are provided at the Network Access layer?
A2:
The Network Access layer provides services related to the specific physical network. These services include preparing, transmitting, and receiving the frame over a particular transmission medium, such as ethernet.
Q3:
Which OSIlayer corresponds to the TCP/IPInternet layer?
A3:
TCP/IP's Internet layer corresponds to the OSI Network layer.
Q4:
Why is header information enclosed at each layer of the TCP/IPprotocol stack?
A4:
Because each protocol layer on the receiving machine needs different information to process the incoming data, each layer on the sending machine encloses header information.
