LAYERED TASKS

We use the concept of layers in our daily life. As an


example, let us consider two friends who communicate
through postal mail. The process of sending a letter to a
friend would be complex if there were no services
available from the post office.

Topics discussed in this section:


Sender, Receiver, and Carrier
Hierarchy
Tasks involved in sending a letter
THE OSI MODEL
Established in 1947, the International Standards
Organization (ISO) is a multinational body dedicated to
worldwide agreement on international standards. An ISO
standard that covers all aspects of network
communications is the Open Systems Interconnection
(OSI) model. It was first introduced in the late 1970s.

Topics discussed in this section:


Layered Architecture
Peer-to-Peer Processes
Encapsulation
Note

ISO is the organization.


OSI is the model.

Figure The interaction between layers in the OSI model

LAYERS IN THE OSI MODEL

In this section we briefly describe the functions of each


layer in the OSI model.

Topics discussed in this section:


Physical Layer
Data Link Layer
Network Layer
Transport Layer
Session Layer
Presentation Layer
Application Layer
Figure Application layer
Note

The application layer is responsible for


providing services to the user.
Figure Presentation layer
Note

The presentation layer is responsible for translation,


compression, and encryption.
Figure Session layer
Note

The session layer is responsible for dialog


control and synchronization.
Figure Transport layer
Note

The transport layer is responsible for the delivery


of a message from one process to another.
Figure Network layer
Note

The network layer is responsible for the


delivery of individual packets from
the source host to the destination host.
Figure Data link layer
Note

The data link layer is responsible for moving


frames from one hop (node) to the next.
Figure Physical layer
Note

The physical layer is responsible for movements of


individual bits from one hop (node) to the next.
Figure Summary of layers
TCP/IP PROTOCOL SUITE

The layers in the TCP/IP protocol suite do not exactly


match those in the OSI model. The original TCP/IP
protocol suite was defined as having four layers: host-to-
network, internet, transport, and application. However,
when TCP/IP is compared to OSI, we can say that the
TCP/IP protocol suite is made of five layers: physical,
data link, network, transport, and application.
