OSI Model
• The Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model) is a product
of the Open Systems Interconnection effort at the International
Organization for Standardization.
• It is a way of sub-dividing a communications system into smaller
parts called layers. A layer is a collection of conceptually similar
functions that provide services to the layer above it and receives
services from the layer below it.
• On each layer an instance provides services to the instances at the
layer above and requests service from the layer below.

TCP/IP
• In the TCP/IP model of the Internet, protocols are not as rigidly designed into
strict layers as the OSI model.
• TCP/IP does recognize four broad layers of functionality which are derived from
the operating scope of their contained protocols, namely the scope of the
software application, the end-to-end transport connection, the internetworking
range, and lastly the scope of the direct links to other nodes on the local
network.
• The Internet Application Layer includes the OSI Application Layer, Presentation
Layer, and most of the Session Layer. Its end-to-end Transport Layer includes the
graceful close function of the OSI Session Layer as well as the OSI Transport
Layer. The internetworking layer is a subset of the OSI Network Layer (see
above), while the Link Layer includes the OSI Data Link and Physical Layers, as
well as parts of OSI's Network Layer.

Circuit-switched vs.
Packet-switched Networks
• Circuit-switched
– Dedicated circuit between endpoints
– Endpoints have exclusive use of the circuits and its bandwidth
• Packet-switched
– Data is divided into packets and transmitted on a shared network
– Each packet can be independently routed on the network
• Switched vs. Permanent Virtual Circuits
– Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVC)
– Switched Virtual Circuits (SVC)
Carrier Sense Multiple Access
• Only one device may transmit at a time
• There are two variations
– Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA)
– Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD)
Polling to Avoid Contention
• Slave device needs permission from a master device
• Used mostly in mainframe protocols
• Optional function of the IEEE 802.1 1 standard
Token Passing
• A token is a special frame that circulates through the ring
• Device must possess the token to transmit
• Token passing is used in Token Ring (IEEE 802.5) and FDDI
Bridges and Switches
• Bridges
– Layer 2 devices that filter traffic between segments based on MAC
addresses
– Can connect LANs with unlike media types
– Simple bridges do not reformat frames
• Switches
