Understanding TCP/IP

This chapter discusses the second of the two network models we will be covering in this book: globally the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) model.

Nowadays, TCP/IP is ubiquitous in nature. It is on pretty much all network devices. If you can grasp this one model, you will be able to troubleshoot networking issues on a range of devices.
