Study Notes
OSI Model
- The OSI model is a standard model for network communication with seven layers.
- It was adopted in 1984 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
- Each layer has a specific set of functions for data communication.
- The layers are organized from the application layer, which is closest to the user, to the physical layer, which is closest to the physical medium.
Advantages of the OSI Model
- Helps visualize and communicate how networks operate.
- Allows for isolation and troubleshooting of networking problems.
IP Allocation and Addressing
- IP addresses are used to identify devices on a network.
- The address is made up of two parts: a network ID and a host ID.
- The network ID identifies the network to which the device belongs.
- The host ID identifies the specific device on the network.
Subnetting
- Subnetting divides a network into smaller subnetworks.
- It allows for more efficient use of IP addresses.
- A subnet mask is used to determine which part of the IP address is the network ID and which part is the host ID.
CIDR
- Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) is used to improve address space utilization and routing scalability.
- It represents an IP network by a prefix, which is an IP address and the length of the mask.
Special Subnets
- A 31-bit subnet mask allows for two host addresses on a point-to-point link.
- A 32-bit subnet mask describes a subnet with only one IP host address, used for internal interfaces like a loopback interface.
