TYPES OF INTERNET PROTOCOL

1. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP): TCP is a popular communication protocol


which is used for communicating over a network. It divides any message into
series of packets that are sent from source to destination and there it gets
reassembled at the destination.
2. Internet Protocol (IP): IP is designed explicitly as addressing protocol. It is mostly
used with TCP. The IP addresses in packets help in routing them through
different nodes in a network until it reaches the destination system. TCP/IP is the
most popular protocol connecting the networks.
3. User Datagram Protocol (UDP): UDP is a substitute communication protocol to
Transmission Control Protocol implemented primarily for creating loss-tolerating
and low-latency linking between different applications.
4. Post office Protocol (POP): POP3 is designed for receiving incoming E-mails.
5. Simple mail transport Protocol (SMTP): SMTP is designed to send and distribute
outgoing E-Mail.
6. File Transfer Protocol (FTP): FTP allows users to transfer files from one machine
to another. Types of files may include program files, multimedia files, text files,
and documents, etc.
7. Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP): HTTP is designed for transferring a
hypertext among two or more systems. HTML tags are used for creating links.
These links may be in any form like text or images. HTTP is designed on Client-
server principles which allow a client system for establishing a connection with
the server machine for making a request. The server acknowledges the request
initiated by the client and responds accordingly.
8. Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS): HTTPS is abbreviated as Hyper
Text Transfer Protocol Secure is a standard protocol to secure the
communication among two computers one using the browser and other fetching
data from web server. HTTP is used for transferring data between the client
browser (request) and the web server (response) in the hypertext format, same in
case of HTTPS except that the transferring of data is done in an encrypted
format. So it can be said that https thwart hackers from interpretation or
modification of data throughout the transfer of packets.
9. Telnet: Telnet is a set of rules designed for connecting one system with another.
The connecting process here is termed as remote login. The system which
requests for connection is the local computer, and the system which accepts the
connection is the remote computer.
10. Gopher: Gopher is a collection of rules implemented for searching, retrieving as
well as displaying documents from isolated sites. Gopher also works on the
client/server principle.
