Q

TCP creating a TCP header with sequence number on one machine to be received and reacted to by another machine is an example of what?

A

Same Layer Interaction

26
Q

The two computers use a protocol to communicate with the same layer on another computer. The protocol defines a header that communicates what each computer wants to do - this is an example of what?
