Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Purpose

The template is not a navigation tool, but presents information.

This table conveys the architectural structure of the protocol suite used in the design of the Internet. It illustrates the concept of layering in the Internet Protocol Suite. It also provides an overview of the most prominent protocols in the Internet Protocol Suite, but the table is not intended to be a navigation template or include many protocols. Each layer contains a link to an appropriate category page that lists all protocols covered on Wikipedia.

Definition of model

The presentation of this model is based on accepted Internet standards^[1] and subsequent documents that define the layering in the TCP/IP model.

This model is conceptually similar to the OSI model, but there are substantial and important differences between these models.

Indeed, there is some legitimate debate about the positioning of some protocols in the suite as layering or any strict encapsulation sequencing are not principal design criteria for TCP/IP.

Editing

When adding new protocols, please include only notable protocols that are in widespread use today. Again, a goal for the scope of content was not to include all protocols and turn this into a navigation template, but only a few to illustrate the concept of layering in TCP/IP as may be found in many texts.

Please do not alter the names of the layers, as these names are the official standardized names of the layers in the original English-language reference documentation.

Template data

Template {{Internet protocol suite}} is used to display well-known protocols in respect to their network layer.

Template parameters[Edit template data]
This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Link layer	`link`	Display an extra link layer protocol. Example link=[[TRILL (computing)\|TRILL]]	String	optional
Internet layer	`internet`	Display an extra internet layer protocol. Example internet=[[Gateway-to-Gateway protocol\|GGP]]	String	optional
Transport layer	`transport`	Display an extra transport layer protocol. Example transport=[[Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol\|PPTP]]	String	optional
Application layer	`application`	Display an extra application layer protocol. Example application=[[SOAP]]	String	optional

The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Internet protocol suite/doc.
Editors can experiment in this template's sandbox and testcases pages.
Add categories to the /doc subpage. Subpages of this template.
