TCP/IP Model

TCP/IP stands for Transmission control protocol/Internet protocol.TCP is a transport layer protocol and IP is a network layer protocol .TCP and IP both are different protocol but by the help of these two protocol ,TCP/IP model was developed.TCP/IP model defines how data is transferred from one computer to another.When two devices communicates with each other through the help of internet ,it is possible only for TCP/IP model .The TCP/IP model consists of 4 layers.These are :-

(1) Application layer:- 
-This layer performs the function of the   top three layer of the OSI model,i.e.Application layer , presentation   layer and session layer .
-The application layer is the top-most layer of the TCP/IP model.
-The application layer provides the user with the interface to communication.
-There are several protocols used by the application layer for interaction such as:FTP,HTTP, SMTP,DNS,TELNET etc.
-The application layer sends data to transport layer and receives data from transport layer .
(2) Transport layer:- 
-This layer is parallel the functions of OSI's Transport layer.
-The transport layer is responsible for end-to-end communication and error-free delivery of data.
-The two major protocols are used in transport later,i.e.TCP and UDP.
-The transmission control protocol (TCP) provides reliable, connection-oriented transport of data between two end-points on two computers that use internet protocol to communicate.
-The user datagram protocol (UDP) provides unreliable, connection less transport of data between two end-points on two computers that use internet protocol to communicate.
(3) Internet layer:- 
-This layer is parallel the functions of OSI's network layer .
-The main functions of this layer is logical addressing, Routing and path determination.
-IP addressing is done in network layer is called logical addressing.
-Routing is the method of moving data packets from source to destination .
-A Computer can be connected to Internet server in number of ways , choosing the best path for data delivery from source to destination is called path determination.
-The protocols used by this layer are ARP,ICMP,IGMP,RARP and IP.
-The internet layer communicates with transport later when receiving and sends data to the network access layer when transmitting.
(4) Network access layer:-
-This network access layer is the lowest layer of the TCP/IP model.
-This layer performs the functions of data link layer and physical layer of the OSI model.
-This layer is also called a network interface layer.
-It defines how the data should be sent physically through the network.
-This layer is mainly responsible for the transmission of the data between two devices on same network.
-The main protocols residing at this layer are: Ethernet,token ring ,FDDI etc.

Difference between Hub and Switch

Hub is a networking device which operates on physical layer of the OSI(open system interconnection) model whereas switch is also a networking device but it operates on data link layer of the OSI model .Hub is purely hardware  but switch is a device which is the combination of both software and hardware.Hub supports broadcast transmission whereas switch supports Unicast, multicast and broardcast transmission .Hub is having single collision domain whereas Every port of Switch is separate collision domain.Transmission mode of hub is half-duplex whereas transmission mode of switch is full-duplex.Hub can do only forwarding whereas Switch can be able to do both forwarding and filtering.Hub can't store MAC (media access control) address where as switch stores MAC address.

What is POP3 and IMAP ? Difference between POP3 and IMAP.

POP3:- -POP3 stands for post office protocol   version 3. -It is a simple protocol with limited   functionality which is used for opening   remote e-mail boxes. -It is a pull protocol. -It is an application layer protocol. -A POP3 sever stores message for each   user until the user logs in using e-mail   client and downloads the message to   their  computer.Once the the message is   downloaded ,it(message) is deleted from   the server. -In POP3,you can access mail from a   single device.once you have downloaded   the mail to your desktop after it you can't   download the same message to your   laptop because the mail had deleted after   first download. -The transfer protocol of POP3 is   TCP(Transmission control protocol).Post   office protocol version 3 uses TCP for   communication and It uses T...

Linear Regression in Power BI

Linear Regression is Predictive model used for finding the linear relationship between a dependent and one or more independent variables. In regression the dependent variable has to be continuous numerical (not categorical like Green, Yellow etc). In Simple linear regression, we have one independent variable and one dependent variable. It is also known as Univariate linear regression, as there is only one independent variable. In Multiple linear regressions, we have more than one independent variable and one dependent variable. It is also known as multivariate linear regression, as there is more than one independent variable. Now our goal is to predict the home price by using the Simple Linear Regression. (Name of the above table is SimpleLinearRegression ) In this table we have the prices of home based on the Area of that home. Here we have to predict the Price based on the given Area. As we are predicting the price based on the area. So, Price is the dependent variable and ...
