This protocol leads the representation of data to user, and also deals with the encoding and decoding of data.
This protocol supports the connection between two diverse devices across diverse network.
This protocol helps to determine the best path through a network.
This protocol deals with the connection of all essential hardware devices used to build and to connect to the network.
