There are 7 Layers
Layers 7,6,5 are oriented more toward
services to the applications
Layer 4,3,2,1 are oriented more toward
the flows data from end-to-end through
network

Application
Layer 7
Function & Description

An application that communicates with
other computers is implementing OSI
application layer concepts. Application
layer refer to communications service
to application.
Example







Telnet
HTTP
FTP
WWW Browser
NFS
SMTP Gateway
SNMP
Presentation
Layer 6
Function & Description


This layer main purpose is defining
data format such as ASCII text,
EBCDIC text, binary, BCD, JPEG.
Encryption is also defined by OSI as
presentation layer service.
Example



JPEG
ASCII
TIFF
GIF
PICT
MPEG
MIDI
Encryption
Session
Layer 5
Function & Description


This session layer defines how to start,
control, and end conversation (called
session).
This includes the control and
management of multi bidirectional
messages so that application can be
notified if only some of a series of
messages are completed.
Example

RPC
SQL
NFS

AppleTalk
ASP
SCP
DECnet
Transport
Layer 4
Function & Description

Layer 4 includes the choice of
protocols that either do or do not
provide error recovery. Multiplexing of
incoming data for different flows to
applications on the same host.
Example



TCP
UDP
SPX
Network
Layer 3
Function & Description


This layer defines end-to-end delivery
packets. To accomplish this, the network
layer defines logical addressing so that any
endpoint can be identified. It also defines
how routing works and how routes are
learned so that the packets can be delivered
Network layer also defines how to fragment
a packet into smaller packets to
accommodate media with smaller maximum
transmission unit size
Example



IP
IPX
AppleTalk DDP
Data Link
Layer 2
Function & Description

The data link specifications are
concerned with getting data across
one particular link or medium. The data
link protocols define delivery across an
individual link. These protocols are
necessary concerned with the type of
media in question.
Example






IEEE 802.3/802.2
HDLC
Frame Relay
PPP
FDDI
ATM
Physical
Layer 1
Function & Description

Deal with the physical characteristics
of the transmission medium,
Connection pins, use of pins, electrical
currents, encoding and light
modulation.
Example





Ethernet
RJ-45
V.35
FDDI
EIA/TIA-232


Some protocol define details of
multiple layers.
Example: NFS
Benefit & Concept






Humans can discuss and learn about many
details of a protocol specification easier
Standardized interfaces among layers
Better environment for interoperability
Reduce complexity, faster production
Each layer can define header and trailers
around the user data
One layer use the services of the layer
immediately below it.

Step 1 = Physical Layer, ensure bit
synchronization
Step 2 = Data Link Layer, Frame Check
Sequence (FCS) whether error occurred in
transmission
Step 3 = Network Layer, Exam address
Step 4 = Transport Layer, acknowleadment
Step 5 = Session Layer, to ensure that a series
of messages is completed
Step 6 = Presentation Layer, manipulate data
format
Step 7 = Application Layer, processes the final
header and then can examine the true end-user
data

Flow control is the process of
controlling the rate at witch a computer
sends data.

Buffering

Buffering simply means that computers
reserve enough buffer space that
bursts of incoming data can be held
until processed
