Study Notes
OSI Model (Open Systems Interconnection)
- Conceptual framework consists of seven layers for network functions.
- Layer 1: Physical Layer - Manages the physical connection, including cables, switches, and signal transmission.
- Layer 2: Data Link Layer - Manages data frames and error detection between devices on the same network.
- Layer 3: Network Layer - Responsible for routing data using IP addresses across different networks.
- Layer 4: Transport Layer - Ensures reliable end-to-end communication using protocols like TCP and UDP.
- Layer 5: Session Layer - Manages connections or sessions between applications.
- Layer 6: Presentation Layer - Translates data formats, handles encryption and compression between application and network.
- Layer 7: Application Layer - Directly provides network services to users, such as email, file transfer, and web browsing.
IP Addressing
- An IP address uniquely identifies a device on a network.
- IPv4 - Utilizes a 32-bit address formatted as four decimal numbers (e.g., 192.168.1.1).
- IPv6 - Employs a 128-bit address, allowing a considerably larger address space formatted as eight hexadecimal numbers (e.g., 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334).
Subnetting
- Involves dividing a network into smaller sub-networks (subnets) to enhance efficiency and security.
- Subnet Mask - A 32-bit number that identifies network and host portions of an IP address (e.g., 255.255.255.0).
TCP/IP Model
- A practical model simplifying network communication, consisting of four layers.
- Layer 1: Network Interface Layer - Combines OSI's Physical and Data Link layers, responsible for data transmission and hardware addressing.
- Layer 2: Internet Layer - Corresponds to OSI's Network layer, focuses on routing and IP addressing.
- Efficiently facilitates interactions between networks, with a focus on logical addressing and routing.
Comparison of OSI Model and TCP/IP Model
- OSI Model consists of seven layers while TCP/IP Model simplifies this into four layers reflecting real-world processes.
- TCP/IP Model is the standard for most networks and the internet due to its simplicity and effectiveness.
Introduction to Cloud Computing
- Cloud Computing delivers computing services such as servers and storage over the internet, allowing access without owning physical infrastructure.
- On-Demand Self-Service - Enables users to automatically access resources without human intervention (e.g., spinning up virtual servers).
- Broad Network Access - Services are accessible through standard mechanisms like web browsers, across various devices for convenience (e.g., accessing Google Drive from any device).
