  1. Chapter Two Networking Standards and the OSI Model

  2. Objectives • Identify organizations that set standards for networking • Explain the layers of OSI Model • Describe specific networking services within each layer of OSI Model

  3. Objectives • Explain how two systems communicate through OSI Model • Discuss the structure and purpose of data frames • Describe the two types of addressing contained in OSI Model

  4. Standards • Documented agreements containing technical specifications or other precise criteria that stipulate how a particular product or service should be designed or performed • Many different industries use standards to ensure that products, processes, and services suit their purpose

  5. Networking Standards Organizations • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) • Comprised of industry and government representatives • Determine standards for electronics industry in addition to other fields • Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) • Trade organization composed of representatives from electronics manufacturing firms across United States • Sets standards for members, helps write ANSI standards, and lobbies for legislation favorable to the industry

  6. Networking Standards Organizations • Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) • International society of engineering professionals • Promotes development and education in electrical engineering and computer science fields • International Organization for Standardization (ISO) • Collection of standards organizations • Goal is to establish international technological standards to facilitate global exchange of information and barrier-free trade

  7. Networking Standards Organizations • International Telecommunication Union (ITU) • Formerly called Consultative Committee on International Telegraph and Telephony (CCITT) • United Nations agency that regulates international telecommunications • Assists developing countries

  8. The OSI Model • Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Model • Model for understanding and developing computer-to-computer communication • Developed in the 1980s by ISO • Divides network architecture into seven layers • Network architect • Professional involved in network design

  9. The OSI Model Figure 2-1: The OSI Model

  10. Physical LayerData Link Layer • Physical layer • First layer of OSI Model • Contains physical networking media • Data Link layer • Second layer of OSI Model • Primary function is to divide data it receives from Network layer into distinct frames that can be transmitted by Physical layer

  11. Frames • Structured package for moving data • Includes raw data (or payload) along with sender’s and receiver’s: • Network addresses • Error-checking and control information Figure 2-2: A simplified data frame

  12. Network Layer • Third layer of OSI Model • Translates network addresses into their physical counterparts • Decides how to route data from sender to receiver

  13. Network Layer • Because Network layer handles routing, routers belong in Network layer • To route means to direct data based on addressing, usage patterns, and availability • Network layer protocols also accomplish: • Segmentation • Reassembly

  14. Transport Layer • Fourth layer of OSI Model • Ensures that data are transferred between points reliably and without errors • Handles flow control • Method of gauging appropriate rate of data transmission

  15. Transport Layer • Sequencing • Process of assigning a placeholder to each piece of a data block to allowing receiving node’s Transport layer to reassemble data in correct order • Acknowledgement (ACK) • Response generated in Transport layer • Confirms to sender that its frame was received

  16. Session Layer • Fifth layer of OSI Model • Establishes and maintains communication between two nodes on the network • Session • Refers to a connection for data exchange between two parties • Term session is most often used in context of terminal and mainframe communications

  17. Presentation Layer Application Layer • Presentation layer • Sixth layer of OSI Model • Translates between application and network • Application layer • Seventh, or top, layer of OSI Model • Provides interface to software enabling programs to use network devices

  18. Application Program Interface (API) • Routine that allows a program to interact with the operating system • Belongs to Application layer of OSI Model • Microsoft Message Queueing (MSMQ) • API used in network environment • Stores messages sent between nodes in queues • Forwards these messages to their destination

  19. Applying the OSI Model Table 2-1: Functions of the OSI layer

  20. Communication Between Two Systems • Token • Special control frame indicating to rest of network that a particular node has right to transmit data • Frame Check Sequence (FCS) • Field in a frame responsible for ensuring that data carried by frame arrives intact

  21. Communication Between Two Systems Figure 2-3: Data transfer between two systems

  22. Communication Between Two Systems Figure 2-4: Data transformed through the OSI Model

  23. Frame Specifications • Ethernet • Networking technology originally developed in 1970s by Xerox • Four types of Ethernet technology are used on LANs today • Each type is governed by a set of IEEE standards

  24. Frame Specifications • Token Ring • Networking technology developed by IBM in the 1980s • Relies upon direct links between nodes and a ring topology, using tokens to allow nodes to transmit data

  25. A Typical Ethernet Frame • 802.3 standard • IEEE standard for Ethernet networking devices and data handling Figure 2-5: Ethernet frame as specified by the IEEE 802.3 standard

  26. Components of the Ethernet 802.3 Frame • Preamble • Marks beginning of entire frame • Start of Frame Delimiter (SFD) • Indicates beginning of addressing frame • Destination Address • Contains destination node address

  27. Components of the Ethernet 802.3 Frame • Source Address • Contains address of originating node • Length (LEN) • Indicates length of packet • Data • Contains data, or segmented part of data, transmitted from originating node

  28. Components of the Ethernet 802.3 Frame • Pad • Used to increase size of the frame to its minimum size requirement of 46 bytes • Frame Check Sequence (FCS) • Provides an algorithm to determine whether data were correctly received • Most commonly used algorithm is Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)

  29. Typical Token Ring Frame • 802.5 Standard • IEEE standard for Token Ring networking devices and data handling Figure 2-6: Typical Token Ring frame

  30. Components of Token Ring Frame • Start Delimiter (SD) • Signifies beginning of packet • Access Control (AC) • Contains information about priority of the frame • Frame Control (FC) • Defines type of frame

  31. Components of Token Ring Frame • Destination Address • Contains destination node address • Source Address • Contains address of originating node • Data • Contains data transmitted from originating node

  32. Components of Token Ring Frame • Frame Check Sequence (FCS) • Used to check integrity of the frame • End Delimiter (ED) • Indicates end of the frame • Frame Status (FS) • Indicates whether destination node recognized and correctly copied the frame

  33. Addressing Through the Layers • Data Link layer address • Also called MAC address, after Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer • Number uniquely defining a network node • Composed of Block ID and Device ID • Manufacturer-hard codes the address on the NIC

  34. Addressing Through the Layers • Network layer address • Resides at Network level of OSI Model • Follows hierarchical addressing scheme • Can be assigned through operating system software

  35. IEEE Networking Specifications Table 2-2: IEEE 802 standards

  36. IEEE Networking Specifications • To accommodate shared access for multiple network nodes, IEEE expanded OSI Model by separating Data Link layer into two sublayers: • Logical Link Control (LLC) sublayer • Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer

  37. Data Link Layer Sublayers • LLC • Upper sublayer • Provides common interface • Supplies reliability and flow control services • MAC • Lower sublayer • Appends physical address of destination computer onto the frame

  38. Subdivided Data Link Layer Figure 2-7: LLC and MAC sublayers

  39. Chapter Summary • Standards are documented agreements containing technical specifications or other precise criteria used as guidelines to ensure materials, products, processes, and services suit their purpose • Prominent standards organization include: • ANSI • EIA • IEEE • ISO • ITU

  40. Chapter Summary • OSI Model divides networking architecture into seven layers: • Physical layer • Data Link layer • Network layer • Transport layer • Session layer • Presentation layer • Application layer

  41. Chapter Summary • A data request from a software program is received by Application layer services and is transferred down through layers of OSI Model until it reaches the Physical layer • Data frames are small blocks of data with control, addressing, and handling information attached to them • Each node on a network can be identified by two types of addresses: • Network layer address • Data Link layer address

  42. Chapter Summary • In addition to frame types, IEEE networking specifications apply to connectivity, networking media, error checking algorithms, encryption, emerging technologies, and more • ISO expanded OSI Model by separating the Data Link layer into sublayers: • LLC layer • MAC layer
