NTC/362: Fundamentals of Networking

April 25,2020

, 1. OSI Model discussion

he OSI Model (Open Systems Interconnection Model) is a conceptual framework used to describe

the functions of a networking system. The OSI model characterizes computing functions into a

universal set of rules and requirements in order to support interoperability between different

products and software. In the OSI reference model, the communications between a computing

system are split into seven different abstraction layers: Physical, Data Link, Network, Transport,

Session, Presentation, and Application.


1. Physical Layer


The lowest layer of the OSI Model is concerned with electrically or optically transmitting raw

unstructured data bits across the network from the physical layer of the sending device to the

physical layer of the receiving device. It can include specifications such as voltages, pin layout,

cabling, and radio frequencies. At the physical layer, one might find “physical” resources such as

network hubs, cabling, repeaters, network adapters or modems.


2. Data Link Layer


At the data link layer, directly connected nodes are used to perform node-to-node data transfer

where data is packaged into frames. The data link layer also corrects errors that may have occurred

at the physical layer. The data link layer encompasses two sub-layers of its own. The first, media

access control (MAC), provides flow control and multiplexing for device transmissions over a

network. The second, the logical link control (LLC), provides flow and error control over the

physical medium as well as identifies line protocols.


3. Network Layer

, The network layer is responsible for receiving frames from the data link layer and delivering them

to their intended destinations among based on the addresses contained inside the frame. The

network layer finds the destination by using logical addresses, such as IP (internet protocol). At

this layer, routers are a crucial component used to quite literally route information where it needs

to go between networks.


4. Transport Layer


The transport layer manages the delivery and error checking of data packets. It regulates the size,

sequencing, and ultimately the transfer of data between systems and hosts. One of the most

common examples of the transport layer is TCP or the Transmission Control Protocol.


5. Session Layer


The session layer controls the conversations between different computers. A session or connection

between machines is set up, managed, and termed at layer 5. Session layer services also include

authentication and reconnections.


6. Presentation Layer


The presentation layer formats or translates data for the application layer based on the syntax or

semantics that the application accepts. Because of this, it at times also called the syntax layer. This

layer can also handle the encryption and decryption required by the application layer.


7. Application Layer


At this layer, both the end user and the application layer interact directly with the software

application. This layer sees network services provided to end-user applications such as a web
