'''TCP''' is one of the main transport layers of the [[Internet Protocol Suite]].<ref>[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1122 RFC 11211]</ref> It is an effective transport service connection wherein data is transferred with an end-to-end reliability from the source host to the destination host. TCP verifies the correct delivery of data and provides a support to check for errors and missing data, and re-sends it to complete the data transfer.<ref>[http://www.yale.edu/pclt/COMM/TCPIP.HTM Introduction to TCP/IP]</ref> Meanwhile, '''IP''' is the primary component of the Internet protocol Suite used by all Internet transport protocols such as the TCP to carry data from the source to its destination. Its main functions include addressing, fragmentation and re-assembly of an internet datagram, type-of-service specification and security information.<ref>[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1122#section-3.2.1 RFC 1122]</ref>
