The document discusses the principles of protocol layering and the TCP/IP protocol suite. There are two main principles of protocol layering: bidirectional communication is needed between layers, and the objects within each layer must be identical at both communication sites. The TCP/IP protocol suite is organized into a layered architecture with different protocols at each layer, where upper layers are supported by services from lower layers to enable communication and transfer of data.

COMPUTER COMMUNICATION NETWORKS ..PRINCIPLES OF PROTOCOL LAYERING..
• Two principles of Protocol Layering
• First Principle: Need Bi-directional Communication. (listen & talk are in different direction).
• Second Principle: Need to follow in protocol layering is that
the two objects under each layer at both sites should be identical.

(TCP/IP). • It is a set of Protocols organized in different layers. • Each layer provides a specific functionality. • Each upper layer protocol is supported by the services provided by one more lower level protocols. ..LAYERED ARCHITECTURE... ..LAYERS IN THE TCP/IP PROTOCOL SUITE...
