The 7 Layers of the OSI Model Last updated: March 03‚ 2008 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. |Application |This layer supports application and end-user processes.

The Seven Layers of the OSI Model Kevin Ludwig Bryant and Stratton College TECH 140 Khaled Sabha 12.08.2009 There are seven layers in the OSI model. Each layer has a function or purpose that is used to set up a network. The International Organization for Standardization began to develop the OSI framework in 1984. The purpose was to have each layer interact with the layer directly beneath it. The layers are starting from the top: Application‚ Presentation‚ Session‚ Transport‚ Network

MEMORANDUM TO: Network Group FROM: Student SUBJECT: Security and the OSI Model The Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) Model is the basis on which network communications function. Every network application more or less adheres to the standards of the OSI Model. Each layer of the OSI model represents a level of network functionality. For each layer‚ there are different types of security to protect the network at that layer. The physical layer is the actual medium in which the data travels

The main benefits of the OSI model include the following: • Helps users understand the big picture of networking • Helps users understand how hardware and software elements function together • Makes troubleshooting easier by separating networks into manageable pieces • Defines terms that networking professionals can use to compare basic functional relationships on different networks • Helps users understand new technologies as they are developed • Aids in interpreting vendor explanations of product

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

Friday‚ September 24‚ 2010 JANN VINCENT PAUL C. LAGMAY BSIT-1A Open System Interconnection (OSI) The Open System Interconnection Reference Model or OSI Reference Model or OSI Model is essentially a conceptual description for layered communications and computer network protocol design. It was created as part of the Open Systems Interconnection or OSI initiative. In its most fundamental form‚ it separates network architecture into seven distinct layers: the Application‚ Presentation‚ Session

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

Security and the OSI Model Network security is a topic that reaches far beyond the realm of firewalls‚ passwords‚ and user ID accounts. For a network and data to remain secure there must be protective measures at each level in the OSI interconnect model. While each layer basically operates autonomously of the other it is important to ensure that the data being transmitted from the host to destination has not been tampered with or is being prevented from reaching its destination. There are
