Not so long ago, the organization of local networks required the use of the correct protocol. Such a choice influenced what types of computers can be connected to it. Today, this problem has almost disappeared. Modern TCP IP network protocols have replaced everything that existed before. This is a universal solution that can be used in any operating system.

It is important to remember certain points. At the moment, there is already more than one network protocol. All of them are intended for communication, however, each of them has completely different tasks, there are advantages and disadvantages compared to the others. The use of each of them implies the presence of certain working conditions, which are usually prescribed by the protocol itself. When choosing a solution, you should rely on this particular parameter.
