Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 400-600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.
The discussion assignment for this week will be about transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) networking. TCP/IP networks are the most common in use today, which is largely because of the use of TCP/IP for Internet communications. Using the library and the Internet, search for information on TCP/IP networking. Discuss the following:
• What makes TCP/IP networking so popular?
• Provide at least 2 examples (other than the Internet) for which TCP/IP networking is well-suited, and discuss reasons to support your answer.
