How many layers in TCP / IP Model
4
TCP Model Application Layer
The application layer is responsible for the communication protocols between nodes. The protocols in this layer include Hypertext Protocol Transfer (HTTP and HTTPS), Secure Shell (SSH), and Network Time Protocol (NTP), among many others.
TCP Model Transport Layer
The transport layer is responsible for the end-to-end transport of data. The protocols that live in this layer are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
TCP Model Network Layer
The network layer defines the logical transmission protocols for the whole network. The main protocols that live in this layer are Internet Protocol (IP), Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP).
TCP Model Network Interface Layer
The network interface layer establishes how data should be physically sent through the network.
