WHAT IS NETWORK

PROTOCOL?

INGLES III
LIC. MA. E.G.S.
A Protocol is the special set of rules that end points in
telecommunication connection use when they
communicate

Protocols specify interactions between

the communication entities

The word protocol comes from the Greek word

Protocollon which means a leaf of paper glued
to a manuscript that describes the content.

Protocols are established by international

industrywide organization

The most important computer protocol is OSI ( Open

Systems Interconnection).It is a set of guidelines for
implementing neworking communications between

HOW DO COMPUTER PROTOCOLS WORK?
Protocols serve as the rules of the road
as data moves among devices

Assembling the physical pieces of a

computer network by itself is insufficient
to make it function; connected devices
also require a method of communication.
These communication languages are
called network protocols.
THE THREE PRIMARY ACTIONS OF PROTOCOLS ARE:

● AUTOMATION
Allow differEnt ● INSTANT MESSAGING

 PURPOSE OF NETWORK PROTOCOLS
Without protocols, devices would lack the ability to understand the electronic signals they send to each other
over network connections. Network protocols serve these basic functions:

Address data to the correct recipients.

Physically transmit data from source to destination, with security protection if needed.
Receive messages and send responses appropriately.
