This is just TCP. It takes a "three way handshake" for a connection to be established. It starts with a SYN from the device that starts the conversation, then a SYN ACK from the receiving end, and finishes with an ACK from the sending end. See below what you would see in Wireshark:
10.3.1.53 sends a SYN packet to 10.1.2.5:
10.1.2.5 sends a SYN ACK back to 10.3.1.53:
10.3.1.53 sends an ACK packet back to 10.1.2.5:
And that is what they call the three way handshake for TCP.
This is the retired Shane Killen personal blog, an IT technical blog about configs and topics related to the Network and Security Engineer working with Cisco, Brocade, Check Point, and Palo Alto and Sonicwall. I hope this blog serves you well. -- May The Lord bless you and keep you. May He shine His face upon you, and bring you peace.
