	A '''protocol suite''' (or '''protocol family''') is a set of communication [[protocol]]s which are intended to work together, as a [[architecture\|hierarchy]] of components ~~(the layered assemblage is sometimes called a '''protocol stack''')~~, to produce the desired overall functionality.		A '''protocol suite''' (or '''protocol family'''; the term '''protocol stack''', from the layered assemblage, can be seen, but this can also mean 'the collection of software which implements a particular protocol family') is a set of communication [[protocol]]s which are intended to work together, as a [[architecture\|hierarchy]] of components, to produce the desired overall functionality.

	An example is the [[TCP/IP]] family, which includes [[application]] protocols such as [[HTTP]] (the protocol used by the [[World Wide Web\|Web]]), and underneath them the [[reliable byte stream]] protocol [[Transmission Control Protocol\|TCP]], which in turn depends on the un-reliable [[datagram]] carriage protocol [[Internet Protocol\|IP]].

A '''protocol suite''' (or '''protocol family''') is a set of communication [[protocol]]s which are intended to work together, as a [[architecture|hierarchy]] of components, to produce the desired overall functionality.

An example is the [[TCP/IP]] family, which includes application protocols such as [[HTTP]] (the protocol used by the [[WWW]]), and underneath them the [[reliable byte stream]] protocol [[TCP]], which in turn depends on the unreliable [[datagram]] carriage protocol IP.
