Detailed explanation-3: -The most important protocols for data transmission across the Internet are TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and IP (Internet Protocol).

Detailed explanation-4: -TCP – Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) separates data into packets that can be shared over a network. These packets can then be sent by devices like switches and routers to the designated targets. UDP – User Datagram Protocol (UDP) works in a similar way to TCP, sending packets of data over the network.

Detailed explanation-5: -A data communications protocol deals with the rules for the transmission of data between two or more points (or nodes, as they may also be called). Central to these rules is the concept of layers. Protocol layers were conceived in order to divide the duties of a protocol into manageable chunks.
