Network protocols define the type of hardware that is used and how it is mounted in racks.


They define how messages are exchanged between the source and the destination.


They all function in the network access layer of TCP/IP.


They are only required for exchange of messages between devices on remote networks. - -
They define how messages are exchanged between the source and the destination.


Network protocols are implemented in hardware, or software, or both. They interact with
each other within different layers of a protocol stack. Protocols have nothing to do with the
installation of the network equipment. network protocols are required to exchange
information between source and destination devices in both local and remote networks.

specifying the device operating systems that will support the communication


providing the rules required for a specific type of communication to occur


determining the electronic specifications to enable the communication - -providing the rules

connector specifications
data encoding
media selection
message size
delivery options
end-device installation - -data encoding
message size
delivery options

addressing
encoding
size
encapsulation type
timing
delivery options
