At a low level of abstraction, a protocol is often most easily understood as a state machine. Design criteria can also easily be expressed in terms of desirable or undesirable protocol states and state transitions. In a way, the protocol state symbolizes the assumptions that each process in the system makes about the others. It defines what actions a process is allowed to take, which events it expects to happen, and how it will respond to those events.
