The document discusses how devices are addressed in networks, various networking protocols, and the concept of layering in networking. It explains the TCP/IP suite for data transmission, error-checking methods, and the handshaking process for establishing communication between sender and receiver. Additionally, it highlights the importance of packet switching in data transmission through routers.

• Protocols determine the speed of transmission,
size of the message, error checking methods and type of transmission (synchronous or asynchronous). Handshakin g Handshaking • The protocols are established between sender and receiver before starting communication. Handshaking • The protocols are established between sender and receiver before starting communication. • This is done by handshaking, which is the process of negotiation between the sender and receiver by an exchange of messages. Handshaking • The protocols are established between sender and receiver before starting communication. • This is done by handshaking, which is the process of negotiation between the sender and receiver by an exchange of messages. • Once handshaking is complete, data packets travel from sender to receiver through various routers.
