This is the first time in the country a state-run agency has been awarded a DAS licence, the release added.

According to the release, the I&B ministry issued the order granting DAS licence to the state-run TACTV on Monday.

OSI is a generic, protocol independent standard, acting as a communication gateway between the network and end user. 1. TCP/IP model is based on standard protocols around which the Internet has developed. It is a communication protocol, which allows connection of hosts over a network. 2. In OSI model the transport layer guarantees the delivery of packets. 2. In TCP/IP model the transport layer does not guarantees delivery of packets. Still the TCP/IP model is more reliable. 3.
