Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, or TCP/IP, is a basic communication model that links computers and other devices over networks, including the internet. It establishes a set of guidelines and standards that govern the packaging, addressing, transmission, routing, and reception of data (De Alencar, 2022) . The foundation of contemporary networking is TCP/IP, which guarantees dependable and effective communication between devices running various operating systems and technologies.
TCP/IP uses a layered architecture to function. Islam et al., (2023) argues that the Internet Protocol (IP) layer is in charge of figuring out the most efficient way for data to move across networks and identifying devices using distinct IP addresses. IP manages addressing and routing, but it cannot ensure that data packets will be delivered reliably.
By ensuring stability, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) enhances IP. In
