Study Notes
OSI Model Summary
- The OSI model categorizes network protocols and their functions.
- Network protocols may not strictly adhere to the model, but the model's concepts are still relevant.
- Understanding the OSI model is key to troubleshooting networks.
Table 9-7 Details
- Layer 7 (Application): Provides programs with access to network services. Uses protocols like HTTP, FTP, DHCP, DNS, SMB/CIFS, TFTP, and SMTP. Devices include computers.
- Layer 6 (Presentation): Handles data representation and conversions. Ensures data can be read by the receiving system, and handles encryption/decryption. Devices include Redirectors.
- Layer 5 (Session): Establishes, maintains, and coordinates communication between applications. Uses authentication protocols.
- Layer 4 (Transport): Ensures reliable delivery of data. Breaks data into segments, handles sequencing, acknowledgments, and provides flow control. Uses protocols like TCP and UDP.
- Layer 3 (Network): Handles packet routing, logical addressing, and access control for packet inspection. Devices include routers and layer 3 switches. Uses protocols like IP, ICMP, and ARP.
- Layer 2 (Data Link): Provides physical device addressing and delivery of frames. Handles media access control, and MAC addresses. Examples include Switches, NICs, and used Ethernet, token ring, and FDDI.
- Layer 1 (Physical): Manages hardware connections and handles encoding/decoding of binary signals. Examples are network media, hubs, repeaters, and connectors.
Network Configuration in an Operating System
- Network configuration in OS follows a similar pattern to network communication.
- All functions of the network model must be considered in configuration.
- Configuration begins with the physical aspects of the network.
