16 Steps followed while transferring data are 2
1. The data is broken up into bits of same sized pieces called
packets.
2. A header is added to each packet explaining where the
data has come from,
where it should end up and where it fits in with the rest of
the packets.Each packet is sent from computer to computer
until it finds its destination.
3. Each computer on the way decides where next to send the
packet. All packets may not take the same route.
4. At the destination, the packets are examined. If any
packets are missing or
damaged, a message is sent asking for them to be re-sent.
This continues until all packets have been received intact.
