When Splunk documentation refers to "communication protocols", that would be a reference to network protocols. The protocols that Splunk natively recognizes and supports for field extraction are listed here:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/StreamApp/7.1.1/DeployStreamApp/ProtocolDetection

The protocols that Splunk maps to the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) are listed here:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/StreamApp/7.1.1/DeployStreamApp/WhichprotocolsmaptoCIM

If you'd like more basic information about communication protocols, Wikipedia has a pretty good article about the basics of network communication protocols:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_protocol

I hope this helps!
