OSI Model Joshua M. Grooms The Open Systems Interconnection model‚ or the OSI model‚ is a way to sub-divide a communications system into smaller‚ more manageable parts known as layers. A layer is a grouping of functions that have similar purpose that either provide services to the layer above it or receives services from the layer below it. On which layer of the OSI model do WAN protocols operate? WANs are managed by the protocols that exist in level 2‚ the Data Link Layer‚ of the OSI

The OSI‚ or Open System Interconnection‚ model defines a networking framework for implementing protocols in seven layers. Control is passed from one layer to the next‚ starting at the application layer in one station‚ and proceeding to the bottom layer‚ over the channel to the next station and back up the hierarchy. The OSI model is not a real network architecture‚ because it does not really specify the services and protocols each layer should use. It rather describes what the layers must do. Nevertheless

Understanding the OSI Model November 26‚ 2012 Understanding the OSI Model The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model is a reference tool for understanding data communications between any two networked systems (Simoneau‚ 2012). The OSI Model dissects the communication process down to seven layers‚ where each layer performs specific functions. It helps break a network down to controllable pieces; without this OSI Model networks would be difficult to comprehend. The OSI Models’ seven-layers

In the time that the OSI designers spent arguing over who would be responsible for what‚ TCP/IP conquered the world. The Seven Layers of the OSI Model

4 OSI Transport Layer 4.1 Roles of transport Layer 4.1.1 Purpose The Transport layer provides for the segmentation of data and the control necessary to reassemble these pieces into the various communication streams. Its primary responsibilities to accomplish this are: Tracking the individual communication between applications on the source and destination hosts Segmenting data and managing each piece Reassembling the segments into streams of application data Identifying the different applications

A Glance at the Session Layer of the OSI Model Throughout the history of networking‚ one model has stood the test of time for providing not only insight‚ but also a foundation by which all networking systems utilize in some form or fashion. The seven layers of the OSI model‚ which stands for Open System Interconnect‚ are: Application‚ Presentation‚ Session‚ Transport‚ Network‚ Data link‚ and Physical. These layers are the framework for networking‚ because they represent the roadmap‚ rules‚ and
