History of the OSI Reference Model Looking at the origins of the OSI Reference Model takes us back to several issues that were discussed in the Networking Fundamentals chapter of this Guide; specifically‚ I am talking about standards and standards organizations. The idea behind the creation of networking standards is to define widely-accepted ways of setting up networks and connecting them together. The OSI Reference Model represented an early attempt to get all of the various hardware and software

• • Become familiar with WAN terminology. Learn about different types of WAN connections. Become familiar with different types of WAN equipment. Introduction to WAN Technologies This chapter introduces the various protocols and technologies used in wide-area network (WAN) environments. Topics summarized here include point-to-point links‚ circuit switching‚ packet switching‚ virtual circuits‚ dialup services‚ and WAN devices. Chapters in Part III‚ “WAN Protocols‚” address specific technologies

Q1-1) Identify the five components of a data communications system. 1.Message. 2.Sender 3.Receiver. 4.Transmission medium. 5.Protocol. Q1-11) Why are protocols needed? To achieve end-to-end delivery of data. Q-17) Explain the difference between an Internet draft and a proposed standard? - An Internet draft is a working document (a work inprogress) with no official status and a six- month lifetime. - A proposed standard is elevated to draft standard

OSI Model This memorandum will attempt to explain the Open Systems Interconnection Model‚ known more simply as the OSI Model. The OSI Model has seven levels‚ and these levels will be discussed in detail. Particular mention will be made to which level TCP/IP functions with the OSI Model. The seven levels of the OSI Model are as follows: 7) Application: Provides different services to the applications. 6) Presentation: Converts the information. 5) Session: Handles problems which are not communication

OSI Reference Model 1 - OSI Reference Model Network Reference Models A computer network connects two or more devices together to share information and services. Multiple networks connected together form an internetwork. Internetworking present challenges - interoperating between products from different manufacturers requires consistent standards. Network reference models were developed to address these challenges. A network reference model serves as a blueprint‚ detailing how communication

Layman View of OSI Reference Model (By Diganta Deka‚ Former Student‚ Proprietor-Trainer East India Technologies‚ Guwahati.)‚ diganta.deka@hotmail.com When we talk about computer networks and how computers operate in networks‚ things do not remain as simple as it seems to be. Here numerous protocols work in tandem for the sake of data integrity during the course of data transfer. To make things worse there are a lot of vendors in the market who provide and produce great number

WAN Design Today’s network administrators must manage complex wide-area networks (WANs) in order to support the growing number of software applications that are built around Internet Protocol (IP) and the Web. These WANs place a great demand on network resources‚ and require high-performance networking technologies. WANs are complex environments that incorporate multiple media‚ multiple protocols‚ and inter-connection to other networks‚ such as the Internet. Growth and manageability of these network

OSI vs. TCP/IP Model Comparison & Overview The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model created in the late seventies and used today consists of seven layers that include Application‚ Presentation‚ Session‚ Transport‚ Network‚ Data Link and Physical. The Application layer often dubbed Layer 7 is the most common layer to end users and can consist of applications such as Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or other browser software. The Presentation layer provides a translation of application

The two‚ OSI and TCP/IP are Standardized Protocol Architectures developed specifically for: 1. Devices to communicate 2. Vendors to have more marketable products 3. Customers to insist on standards based equipment The OSI is a reference model whilst TCP/IP is the suite which is the most widely used. Description of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI Model) Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) It is made up of seven layers and each layer: 1. performs a subset of
