Study Notes

OSI Model

  • Defines how internetworks (interconnected networks) function
  • Consists of 7 layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, and Application

OSI Model Layers

Physical Layer

  • Concerned with transmission and reception of raw bit streams over a physical medium
  • Includes duplex, data rate, voltage levels, etc.
  • Responsible for transmission of data frames between two nodes connected by a physical layer
  • Protocols include PPP over phone line and Ethernet on many media types

Network Layer

  • Structuring and managing a multi-node network, including addressing, routing, and traffic control
  • IP addresses are most commonly used
  • Concerned with getting data from one computer to another computer
  • Logical Addressing, Routing, Datagram encapsulation, Fragmentation and reassembly, Error handling and diagnosis

Transport Layer

  • Provides functions to enable communications between application processes on different computers
  • Concerned with end-to-end or host-to-host communication
  • Tracking, flow control, fragmentation, Connection establishment, management, and termination
  • Process level addressing, TCP port, port 80 is HTTP
  • Multiplexing, Segmentation, Acknowledgement and retransmissions, Flow control

Session Layer

  • Mainly concerned with application, no networking details
  • Dialog between entities
  • APIs – TCP/IP sockets, RPC, gRPC

Presentation Layer

  • Very limited function
  • Data representation
  • Compression, encryption

Application Layer

  • High-level protocols such as for resource sharing or remote file access, e.g. HTTP
  • Provides services to end-user applications

TCP/IP Model

  • Four-layer architecture
  • Application (encompasses OSI application, presentation, and session layers)
  • Transport (1-to-1 relationship with OSI transport layer)
  • Internet (1-to-1 relationship with OSI network layer)
  • Link (similar to OSI data link and physical layers)

History of TCP/IP

  • Designed by engineers to solve communication problems
  • Developed by DoD DARPA, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
  • Primarily client – server model
  • Basis for vast majority of network traffic
