Protocol model

This model closely matches the structure of a particular protocol suite. A protocol suite includes the set of related protocols that typically provide all the functionality required for people to communicate with the data network. The TCP/IP model is a protocol model because it describes the functions that occur at each layer of protocols within the TCP/IP suite.

the measure of the transfer of bits across the media over a given period of time.

Throughput

True or False: A subnet mask setting for a host is used to determine to which network the host is connected.

True. A subnet mask is a 32-bit number that divides an IP address into network and host portions. It helps identify the network to which a host belongs by indicating which portion of the IP address is the network address and which portion is the host address within that network. The subnet mask essentially defines the boundary between the network and host portions of the IP address.
