The Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite is a standard set of networking protocols that govern how data passes between networked computers. With TCP/IP you can communicate with Windows NT platforms, with devices that use other Microsoft networking products, and with non-Microsoft systems (such as UNIX systems). TCP/IP is the primary protocol of the Internet and the World Wide Web. It is also the primary protocol for many private internetworks, which are networks that connect local area networks (LANs) together.
For procedural information about installing and configuring TCP/IP under Windows NT, see the online Help. For more detailed information about TCP/IP and its integration with Windows NT and other networking products, see the Microsoft Windows NT Server Resource Kit Networking Guide.
