HTTP something

From Claude with some prompting
This image is a diagram explaining the structure of HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and related network protocols. The main components are:

  1. Protocol Stack:
    • HTTP(S)
    • TLS (Transport Layer Security)
    • TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) or UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
    • IP (Internet Protocol)
    • Ethernet
  2. Data Types:
    • Plain Text: At HTTP(S) and TLS levels
    • Binary Data: From TCP/UDP down to Ethernet
  3. Communication between Client (REQ) and Server (RES):
    • Request Methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
    • URL (Resource Location)
    • HTTP Version
    • Headers
    • Message Body
  4. Cookies and Sessions: Mechanisms for exchanging information between client and server
  5. Server Response:
    • Status Code
    • Headers
    • Message Body

This diagram provides a simplified view of the basic structure of HTTP requests and responses, as well as the underlying network protocol layers that support them. It visually explains the fundamental principles of web communication.
