Hundreds of different network protocols have been created for supporting communication between computers and other types of electronic devices.
Four major network protocols are described ethernet, localtalk, token ring, and fddi. How the message is formatted or structured, as shown in figure 1 the process by which networking devices share information about pathways with other networks. The ip addresses in packets help in routing them through different. Internet protocols 301 30 internet protocols background the internet protocols are the worlds most popular opensystem nonproprietary protocol suite because they can be used to communicate across any set of interconnected networks and are equally well suited for lan and wan communications. The network achieves this by providing a set of rules for communication, called protocols. Network security protocols 2 148 network security protocols 2 layer 1 none, but physical security controls can be implemented and types of cabling used can make a difference layer 2 pptp, layer 2 forwarding, layer 2 tunneling protocol, wireless network security, mpls layer 3.
