Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is used when data reliability is needed since it is connection oriented and guarantees delivery.

Explain the difference between a connection-oriented protocol and a connectionless protocol and give an example of each?

Different from a connectionless protocol, a connection-oriented protocol guaranties the delivery of the information. An example of connection-oriented protocol is (TCP) and a connectionless protocol is (UDP). TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, it makes a connection and checks whether the data is received, and resends if it is not. UDP is a connectionless protocol, it does not guarantee delivery by first connecting and checking whether data is received.

Difference TCP and UDP?

TCP is the protocol of network layer, It is connection oriented protocol. UDP is the protocol of network layer, It is connection less protocol.


Compare and contrast connectionless communication and connection-oriented communication?

In a connection-oriented communication,there is a guaranteed delivery of data : any data that is not received by the destination system is re-sent by the sending device. Communication between sending and receiving device continues until the transmission has been verified. Because the connection-oriented protocol has higher overhead, it places greater demand on the bandwidth. In contrast to connection oriented communication, connection less protocol offers only a best effort delivery mechanism because the information sent there has no conformation that data has been received. If there is error in transmission there is no mechanism to resend the data, so transmission by the connection less is no guarantee that the data is received by the destination. Connection less communication requires far less overhead than connection oriented communication. It is popular in applications such as streaming audio and video where small number packets might represent a significant problem.


Is email connection oriented or connectionless?

Email runs SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol), where SMTP operates over TCP protocol, so it id connection oriented.


Where to obtain cloud computing magazines?

One of the benefits of web applications is that they are generally transported via TCP, which is a connection-oriented protocol designed to assure delivery.


Is DNS connectionless or connection-oriented?

DHCP is a connectionless protocols. In general, any protocol that is based on TCP port alone is a connection-oriented protocol while any protocol that is based on UDP port alone is a connectionless protocol. And a protocols that can work on both TCP and UDP port can be either a connection-oriented or a connectionless protocol depending upon the which protocol is used (TCP or UDP). For checking other protocols if they are connection-oriented or connectionless check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers


Why connection oriented is more reliable than connection less protocol?

Connection oriented is more reliable because there is an acknowledgment received from data receiver (destination) that the data is receiving and transfer is successful which is not received from connection less protocol.


Why do you have type data gram socket?

A datagram socket represents a connectionless, non-guaranteed communication protocol. It represents the UDP protocol in the TCP/IP suite.Contrast this with a stream socket, which represents a connection oriented, guaranteed, communication protocol. It represents the TCP protocol in the TCP/IP suite.UDP is the underlying protocol for TCP. If you are talking OSI model, UDP is layer 3, and TCP is layer 4.


What transport protocol exchanges datagrams without acknowledgements or guaranteed delivery?

UDP


In tcp ip the protocol that guarantees?

Guaranteed reliable delivery is provided by TCP transport.
