CHARACTERISTIC OF IP PROTOCOL - Coggle Diagram

- - - - there are also no acknowledgements of packet delivery with IP, and there is no error control data to track whether packets were delivered without corruption. packets may arrive at the destination corrupted, out of sequence or not at all. based on the information provided in the IP header , there is no capability for packet retransmission if errors such as these occur
      - if out-of-order or missing packets create problem for the application using the data, the upper layer services , such as TCP , must resolve these issues. this allows IP to function very efficiently . if reliable overhead were included in IP, the communication that do not require connections or reliability would be burdened with the bandwidth consumption and delay produced by this overhead
      - in the TCP/IP suite, the transport layer can use either TCP or UDP based on the need for reliability in communication. leaving the reliability decision to the transport layers make IP more adaptable and accommodating for different types of communication
