The video tutorial explains the transport layer's role in client-server communication. It describes how clients initiate connections and servers accept them, highlighting the roles of each in data exchange. The tutorial also covers how servers can act as clients in other connections and the concept of full duplex communication, where data can flow both ways. The video concludes with a discussion on the dynamics of client-server interactions and sets the stage for further exploration of ports.
