Internet Protocols are a set of rules and standards that govern the exchange of data and communication over the internet. These protocols define how data is transmitted between different devices, networks, and systems, and ensure that information is transmitted accurately, securely, and efficiently.
The most commonly used internet protocols include:
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP): This protocol provides reliable and ordered delivery of data packets over the internet.
Internet Protocol (IP): This protocol provides the basic addressing and routing framework for data packets transmitted over the internet.
HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP): This protocol is used for transmitting web pages and other hypertext documents over the internet.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP): This protocol is used for transferring files between different computers over the internet.
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP): This protocol is used for transmitting email messages over the internet.
There are many other internet protocols, each serving a specific purpose and function in the vast network of interconnected devices and systems that make up the internet.
