TCP IP

Introduction to TCP/IP

TCP and IP were developed by the Department of Defence (DOD), under research project, to connect a number of different networks designed by different vendors into a network of networks (the "Internet"). It was initially successful because it delivered a few basic services that everyone needed such as electronic mail, remote across a very large number of clients and server systems. Several computers in a small department can use TCP/IP (along with other protocols) on a single LAN.

On the battlefield, a communication network will sustain damage. So, the DoD designed TCP/IP to be robust and automatically recover from any node or phone line failure. This design allows the construction of very large networks with less central management. Because of the automatic recovery, network problems can go undiagnosed and uncorrected for long period of time.
