The Internet Protocol (IP) is a network-layer (Layer 3) protocol that contains addressing information
and some control information that enables packets to be routed. IP is documented in RFC 791 and
is the primary network-layer protocol in the Internet protocol suite. Along with the Transmission
Control Protocol (TCP), IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols. IP has two primary
responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an

responsibilities: providing connectionless, best-effort delivery of datagrams through an
internetwork and providing fragmentation and reassembly of datagrams to support data links with
different maximum-transmission unit (MTU) sizes.
