Briefly describe how the Internet Protocol makes sure that a piece of data gets to its intended destination on the network.

What will be an ideal response?

The Internet Protocol is the primary logical addressing protocol for TCP/IP. IP makes sure that a piece of data gets to where it needs to go on the network. It does this by giving each device on the network a unique numeric identifier called an IP address. An IP address is known as a logical address to distinguish it from the physical address, the MAC address of the NIC.
