Internet Protocol (IP)<p>There are two types of Internet Protocol (IP) traffic. They are TCP or Transmission Control Protocol and UDP or User Datagram Protocol. TCP is connection oriented – once a connection is established, data can be sent bidirectionally. UDP is a simpler, connectionless Internet protocol. Multiple messages are sent as packets in chunks using UDP.</p> <p>See also: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Protocol">IP</a></p>
