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.

MAC Address

MAC stands for media access control. MAC address is also known as physical address or hardware address or BIA(burnt-in-address).BIA is generally written in Cisco router switches.physical address is generally written in laptop/pc.MAC address is generally written in Mobile. MAC address is globally unic.The MAC address of a device is different from other devices.Many people are thinking there is only one mac address of a device but it is actually wrong ,Because there is no mac address of a laptop .There is a Mac address of your NIC(network interface controller) ,which is connected to your laptop .                                (NIC) If you change your NIC,then the Mac address of your laptop will be changed.NIC is a separate hardware component present in your computer used to connect with the network (home network or internet).There are so many ways that you can connect your laptop with the network like...

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 ...

What is SMTP ?

 SMTP  -SMTP stands for simple mail transfer   protocol. -SMTP is an application layer protocol. -The transfer protocol of SMTP is TCP(Transmission control protocol)    because TCP is a reliable and connection Oriented protocol.TCP gurantees e-mail delivery . -It uses TCP port 25. -A few webmail services like G-mail use   unofficial port 465 for SMTP. -SMTP requires each message in 7-bit   ASCII(American Standard Code for   Information Interchange ) format. -SMTP is used by the client to send mail to servers because SMTP is a push protocol.It is used to send mail from sender to senders mail server and it is also used to send mail to receivers mail server from senders mail server . - Recepient download the mail from the mail server using POP3 or, IMAP .They can also just view the mail on the server by using webmail. Some SMTP commands:  •HELO and EHLO:- Command that initiate a new protocol session...
