Detailed explanation-1: -TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol. It is a transport layer protocol that facilitates the transmission of packets from source to destination. It is a connection-oriented protocol that means it establishes the connection prior to the communication that occurs between the computing devices in a network.
Detailed explanation-2: -In fact, the two protocols most commonly associated with the Transport layer are defined by their connection state: The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is connection-oriented, whereas the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is connectionless.
Detailed explanation-3: -TCP is connection-oriented because before one application process can begin to send data to another, the two processes must first “handshake” with each other–that is, they must send some preliminary segments to each other to establish the parameters of the ensuing data transfer.
