FREE ESSAY ON TCP IP

TCP IP

TCP/IP already supports over 4.8 million hosts with up to 45-MBPS
transit facilities and a wide variety of access links. Its architecture is
evolving to support millions of end users, gigabit-per-second backbone
links, and up to gigabit-per-second communication between individual pairs
of end users. These three aspects of growth impose different requirements,
but probably will evolve simultaneously.
In the twenty-first century, Internet service may be nearly as useful
and easy to use as a telephone service, enabling people to work with
information resources and processors, regardless of their locations. 
Businesses and individuals can feel confident using TCP/IP now, because
TCP/IP architecture is evolving to handle large, faster networks, that will
continue to support today's applications, transmission media, and protocols,
as well as new applications, transmissions media, and protocols.
