protocols

1. protocols are divided into two parts, logically based and physically based.

   • logical protocols are generally thought of as being applied to the data that is being transmitted in this case.
   • the physically based protocols are more of the methods used to carry out the transmission such as the frequency, cable and what sort of cable.

2. a protocol is defined as a set of rules and in the case of transmission it is a 'set of rules that govern the the transmission of a data'.
