darpa then contracted with bbn technologies, stanford university, and the university college london to develop operational versions of the protocol on different hardware platforms. four versions were developed: tcp v1, tcp v2, tcp v3 and ip v3, and tcp/ip v4. the last protocol is still in use today.









































section::::history.:early implementation.









































in 1975, a two-network tcp/ip communications test was performed between stanford and university college london. in november 1977, a three-network tcp/ip test was conducted between sites in the us, the uk, and norway. several other tcp/ip prototypes were developed at multiple research centers between 1978 and 1983.
