By Three Way Handshake?

A three-way handshake is also known as a TCP handshake or SYN-SYN-ACK, and requires both the client and server to exchange SYN (synchronization) and ACK (acknowledgment) packets before actual data communication begins.

What is the right order of 3-way handshake?

To establish a connection, the three-way (or 3-step) handshake occurs: SYN: The active open is performed by the client sending a SYN to the server. The client sets the segment's sequence number to a random value A. SYN-ACK: In response, the server replies with a SYN-ACK.

How does a 3-way handshake work?

The TCP 3-way handshake

TCP uses a three-way handshake to make a reliable connection. The connection is duplex, and the two sides synchronize (SYN) and acknowledge (ACK) with each other. This exchange of four flags takes place in three steps – SYN, SYN-ACK, and ACK.
