Network access protocols describe two
primary functions, data link management and
the physical transmission of data on the media.
the functions that occur during network
communications
Assists in protocol design, because protocols
that operate at a specific layer have defined
information that they act upon and a defined
interface to the layers above and below.
Fosters competition because products from
different vendors can work together.
Prevents technology or capability changes in
one layer from affecting other layers above
and below.
Provides a common language to describe
networking functions and capabilities.

* What are the intermediary devices? What are their functions?
 Processes running on the intermediary network devices perform these functions:
o Regenerate and retransmit data signals
o Maintain information about what pathways exist through the network and
internetwork
o Notify other devices of errors and communication failures
o Direct data along alternate pathways when there is a link failure
o Classify and direct messages according to QoS priorities
o Permit or deny the flow of data, based on security settings
 Examples of intermediary network devices are:
o Network Access Devices (Hubs, switches, and wireless access points)
o Internetworking Devices (routers)
o Communication Servers and Modems
o Security Devices (firewalls)
* What are the end devices? What are their functions?
 End devices are referred to as hosts.
o A host device is either the source or destination.
o A host can act as a client, a server, or both.
 Some examples of end devices are:
o Computers (work stations, laptops, file servers, web servers)
o Network printers
o VoIP phones
o Security cameras
o Mobile handheld devices (such as wireless barcode scanners, PDAs)
* What is LAN? What are the characteristics of LAN?



An individual network usually spans a single geographical area, providing
services and applications to people within a common organizational structure,
such as a single business, campus or region.
A LAN is usually administered by a single organization.
The administrative control that governs the security and access control
policies are enforced on the network level.
* What is WAN? What are the characteristics of WAN?
 When a company or organization has locations that are separated by large
geographical distances, it may be necessary to use a telecommunications
service provider (TSP) to interconnect the LANs at the different locations.
 These networks that connect LANs in geographically separated locations are
referred to as Wide Area Networks (WANs).
* What is the “multiplexing”?
 Sending smaller individual pieces from source to destination, many different
conversations can be interleaved on the network.
 The process used to interleave the pieces of separate conversations together
on the network is called multiplexing.
* What are the definitions of “network protocols”?
 define the structure of layer specific PDU's
 outline the functions necessary for communications between layers
 require layer dependent encapsulations
* Networking protocol suites describe processes such as:
 The format or structure of the message
 The method by which networking devices share information about pathways with
other networks
 How and when error and system messages are passed between devices
 The setup and termination of data transfer sessions
What are the functions of encapsulation?
 identifies pieces of data as part of the same communication
 ensures that data pieces can be directed to the correct receiving end device
 enables the reassembly of complete messages
* What is PDU?
 The form that a piece of data takes at any layer is called a Protocol Data Unit
(PDU).
 During encapsulation, each succeeding layer encapsulates the PDU that it
receives from the layer above in accordance with the protocol being used.
 At each stage of the process, a PDU has a different name to reflect its new
appearance.

Data - The general term for the PDU used at the Application layer
Segment - Transport Layer PDU
Packet - Internetwork Layer PDU
Frame - Network Access Layer PDU
Bits - A PDU used when physically transmitting data over the medium
* What is “encapsulation”? What are the purposes of encapsulation?
- Drippy Sweet Pancakes For Breakfast
- You need to know the name of each PDU during the encapsulation process.
- You need to know the information added to each stage.
* What is the purpose of the layer 4 (or transport layer) segment headers?
 The transport layer: The application data is broken into TCP segments.
o Each TCP segment is given a label, called a header, containing
information about which processes (or services) running on the destination
computer should receive the message.
* What is the purpose of the layer 3 (or internet layer, or network layer) packet headers?
 The Internet layer: Here the entire TCP segment is encapsulated within an IP
packet, which adds another label, called the IP header.
o The IP header contains source and destination IP addresses. .
* What is the purpose of the layer 2 (or network access layer, or data link layer) frame
headers and the trailers?
 The Network Access layer: Ethernet protocol where it is encapsulated within a
frame header and trailer.
o Frame header contains source and destination physical address.
o The trailer contains error checking information.
o Finally the bits are encoded onto the Ethernet media by the server NIC.
* What is “logical address”?
 Another name for logical address is IP address
* What is “physical address”?
 In a LAN using Ethernet, this address is called the Media Access Control (MAC)
address.
* You need to know the name of OSI models?
-Please Do Not Throw Sausage Pizza Away
- Can you list the primary function of each layer?
* You need to know the name of TCP/IP models?
-Never Ingest Tainted Apple
- Can you list the primary function of each layer?
* You need to know the side-by-side comparison of both models (which layer mapped to
which layer).
