Study Notes

The OSI Model

  • The OSI model consists of 7 layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport, Session, Presentation, and Application

Layer 1 - The Physical Layer

  • Responsible for all physical properties of the network

Layer 4 - The Transport Layer

  • Responsible for the actual mechanism of:
    • End-to-end delivery
    • Logical addressing (e.g. IPv4, IPv6, IPX, APPLE TALK)
    • Routing (choosing the best path to the destination) (e.g. RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, EIGRP)

Layer 6 - The Presentation Layer

  • Responsible for presenting data in the proper format
  • Responsible for:
    • Framing
    • Error detection and correction
    • Flow control
    • Media access control

Other Layers

  • Layer 7 - The Application Layer: responsible for protocols such as Email (SMTP, POP3), Web browsers (HTTP), FTP, and Telnet
  • Layer 5 - The Session Layer: responsible for establishing, managing, and terminating connections between applications
  • Layer 3 - The Network Layer: responsible for routing data between networks
