Sending computer
Receiving computer
  • Message is sent from application layer to TCP
    layer
  • Message broken down into packets
  • TCP assigns a port number and sequence number
  • Packets and TCP header, passed on to IP
  • IP gives packets destination address
  • Hardware turns alphabetic text packets into
    electronic signals and transmit over phoneline
  • ISP router examines destination address and sends
    off
  • At the receiving end we start at the bottom of
    stack
  • Headers are stripped off as packet goes up the
    stack
  • When data reaches to application layer, message
    is assembled into its original form
