Chapter 1. The TCP/IP and OSI Networking Models Page 1 of 22 Chapter 1. The TCP/IP and OSI Networking Models This chapter covers the following exam topics: Operation of IP Data Networks Recognize the purpose and functions of various network devices such as Routers‚ Switches‚ Bridges and Hubs. Select the components required to meet a given network specification. Describe the purpose and basic operation of the protocols in the OSI and TCP/IP models. Welcome to the first chapter in your

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

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

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

Secretary Maria and the OSI Network Model Mr. Boss meets Maria on the 7th floor of the main building headquarters. He gives Maria a secret message that must get to the US Embassy across town. Maria proceeds to the 6th floor where the message is translated into an intermediary language‚ encrypted and miniaturized. Maria then takes the elevator to the 5th floor where she checks the message to be sure it is all there and puts some checkpoints in the message so her counterpart at the US Embassy

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

Attacks on layer two of the OSI model Seven layers of OSI In 1977 a model called Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) was proposed‚ with the aim to establish an interoperability standard for different vendor products. This model defines several layers related to data transfer‚ from the lowest (physical) to the highest (application) layer. They have a strong dependence upon one another and headers are usually added when traversing from a lower layer to a higher one. The seven layers are: Layer 1 - Physical

Introduction to the OSI Reference Model The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) defined the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model to standardize networking of devices from different vendors. The OSI reference model is mostly an architecture blueprint that networking and computer device manufacturers implement. The OSI model has never been implemented exactly as defined. The TCP/IP protocol stack is the closest implementation available today. Application Layer (7) This
