SYN ACK

Posted on January 13, 2004 in geekplates

In the TCP/IP protocol, when you initiate a TCP connection (like a web request), your computer sends a “SYN” packet, the remote system sends an “ACK” packet, and then your computer sends a “SYN ACK” packet. You follow that? Good. There will be a quiz later.
