A network administrator is connecting hosts A and B directly through their Ethernet interfaces, as shown in the illustration.Ping attempts between the hosts are unsuccessful. What can be done to provide connectivity between the hosts?i. A crossover cable should be used in place of the straight-through cable.

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. It's a framework for organizing communication protocols used in computer networks and the internet. 

TCP/IP is made up of five layers: Physical, Data link, Network, Transport, Application. 
TCP/IP specifies how data should be: Packetized, Addressed, Transmitted, Routed, Received on a network. 

The four main protocols used in TCP/IP are:
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
Internet Protocol (IP)
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) 

TCP/IP is similar to the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model, which is also a way of transmitting data over the internet. The main difference between the two models is that the OSI model segments multiple functions that the TCP/IP model groups into single layers.
