Web Servers. Elements
The Web server includes the hardware, operating system, Web
server software, TCP/IP protocols and site content (Web pages,
images and other files).
A user agent (web browser), initiates communication by making a
request for a specific resource using HTTP and the server responds
with the content of that resource or an error message if unable to do
so.
Web servers are not only on Internet. HTTP server software is
commonly built into hardware to provide a control panel for
configuring the device from any Web browser, or for Intranets.
