Drag and Drop Question Drag and drop the TCP/IP protocols from the left onto their primary transmission protocols on the right. Answer:

The correct answer is HTTP; SMTP; Telnet; DNS; RTP; SNMP. The correct arrangement maps protocols to their primary transport: HTTP, SMTP, and Telnet use TCP because they require reliable, ordered, connection-oriented delivery for web pages, email, and remote terminal sessions respectively. DNS primarily uses UDP (though it can use TCP fo

Explanation

The correct arrangement maps protocols to their primary transport: HTTP, SMTP, and Telnet use TCP because they require reliable, ordered, connection-oriented delivery for web pages, email, and remote terminal sessions respectively. DNS primarily uses UDP (though it can use TCP for zone transfers), RTP uses UDP because real-time audio/video streams prioritize low latency over guaranteed delivery, and SNMP uses UDP because its lightweight polling model suits connectionless, fast queries to network devices.
