Multiplexing is the process of taking multiple streams of segmented data and interleaving them together. Segmenting messages has two primary benefits: Increases speed - Large amounts of data can be sent over the network without tying up a communications link. Increases efficiency - Only segments which fail to reach the destination need to be retransmitted, not the entire data stream. Data Encapsulation: Sequencing. Sequencing messages is the process of numbering the segments so that the message may be reassembled at the destination. TCP is responsible for sequencing the individual segments. Data Encapsulation: Protocol Data Units. Encapsulation is the process where protocols add their information to the data. The form that a piece of data takes at any layer is called a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) At each stage of the process, a PDU has a different name to reflect its new functions. There is no universal naming convention for PDUs, in this course, the PDUs are named according to the protocols of the TCP/IP suite. PDUs passing down the stack are as follows: 1.Data (Data Stream) 2.Segment 3.Packet 4.Frame 5.Bits (Bit Stream) Encapsulation Example Encapsulation is a top-down process (top to bottom). The level above does its process and then passes it down to the next level of the model. This process is repeated by each layer until it is sent out as a bit stream. Data Encapsulation: De-encapsulation Example. Data is de-encapsulated as it moves up the stack.
