TCP/IP is a communication language of the internet which allows communication between two or more computers through various network packets. Now these packets are a compilation of small data packs which are transmitted to other users via the internet.

TCP plays a vital role in collecting a large amount of data, then compiling it into various packets and then sending it to the receiver. Where the packet transforms into a useful information.

IP protocol layer helps that packet of information to be sent and received at the location needed to be transferred. This task is basically carried out on the surface, but there’s also a whole lot of going on under the surface which helps to work out things on the surface.

Under the surface internet consists of fours abstract layers which are:

1. Link Layer which is a physical layer which interconnects the nodes and servers.

2. Internet Layer which connects the host to various other across networks.

3. Transport Layer performs all the host-host connections.

4. Application Layer ensures the communication between applications on a network.

In short all these four layers are embedded in the TC/IP to ensure that all the data packets are sent and received at the correct location.

The internet is all about communication and access to information, but as we all know that the internet is like a spider’s web which consists of a lot of connection points. So it’s very important that a right amount of information is accessed whether it’s requested from any location. For this TCP/IP is very much required as it plays a vital role in accessing the information right to your computers, no matter from where you access it.

Now to work out the internet properly it’s pretty much important that information accessed reaches where is should reach. As we all know that there are many peers and points in the internet network so the information needs to take a lot of hops to reach to its destination.

Here TCP/IP is needed to make sure that the information reaches its ideal destination and no where else. So we can say that without TC/IP one cannot transfer packets of information to their desired location and make the internet workout as it is working today.
