TCP is a reliable connection-oriented protocol which requires the
completion of a three way handshake to establish a connection. To
implement reliable and unduplicated delivery of data, the TCP
protocol uses a sequence based acknowledgment system. During connection
establishment each host selects an initial sequence number which is
sent in the first packet of the connection. Each subsequent byte
transmitted in the TCP connection is assigned a sequence number.

To prevent duplicate or invalid segments from impacting established
connections TCP utilizes a state based model. In a typical
client-server application, the client initiates a connection by
transmitting a TCP segment to a listening server process. This
causes the state of the process to move from the LISTEN state into
SYN_RECEIVE if a SYN flag is present. During this state the server
acknowledges the clients request setting both the SYN and ACK
flags. To complete the three way handshake the client acknowledges
the servers response, moving the server from SYN_RECEIVE to
ESTABLISHED state.
