  • Study Notes

    • The application layer is an abstraction layer that sits on top of the transport layer.
    • Application layer protocols use the underlying transport layer protocols to establish host-to-host connections.
    • For example, World-Wide-Web servers operate on port 80, and email relay servers usually listen on port 25.
    • TCP is used for reliable, ordered data transfers, while UDP is used for less reliable, unordered data transfers.
    • UDP lacks built-in network congestion avoidance, and so must be carefully designed to prevent network collapse.
