  1. OSI Reference Model Open Systems Interconnection Model

  2. The Layers • (7) Application • (6) Presentation • (5) Session • (4) Transport • (3) Network • (2) Data Link • (1) Physical

  3. Mnemonic • All People Seem To Need Digital Pizza • Make your own!

  4. Application Layer • Closest to user • Communicates with user applications and selects appropriate network applications for those user applications • Identifies and establishes availability of application resources in order to synch apps, negotiate error recovery, and provide data integrity. • Ex: Email, WWW, FTP, Gopher, MS Word, Telnet

  5. Presentation Layer • Ensures that information received from the Application layer is readable by the Application layer of the destination peer • Operations such as encryption, decryption, compression, and decompression are part of this layer • Ex: ASCII, EBCDIC, MIDI, MPEG, QuickTime, PICT, TIFF, GIF, JPEG

  6. Session Layer • Establishes, manages, and terminates sessions between applications • A “session” consists of a dialogue between Presentation layers on two or more systems • Ex: Network Filing System (NFS), SQL, RPC

  7. Transport Layer • Segments upper-layer application data • Establishes end-to-end connection • Sends segments from one host to another • Ensures reliable data transport • Key word associated with the Transport layer: segment

  8. Transport Layer Flow Control • Buffering – each system has a certain amount of memory available for buffering information • Multiplexing – consists of interweaving packets from different segments and transmitting them. • Parallelization – if the upper layers require faster service than a channel can provide, the Transport may combine channels

  9. Connection-Oriented • Transport layer involves reliable transport of segments • Sends “acks” for each segment • Retransmits any segments not acknowledged by receiving system • Discard any duplicate segments • Re-orders segments • Provides congestion avoidance & control

  10. Connection vs. Connectionless = Telephone vs. Post Office *Connectionless Protocol Ex: UDP

  11. Transport Layer Examples • TCP, NBP, SPX

  12. Network Layer • Primary purpose is to determine the best path from one network to another and to *route* messages in that direction • The process of routing includes path determination and packet switching • Creates “packets” from segments • Ex: Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF, Routing Information Protocol (RIP)

  13. Data Link Layer • Responsible for translating messages into “frames” • Switches & bridges • Divided into two sublayers: • The LLC (Logical Link Control) • The MAC (Media Access Control)

  14. Data Link Layer (LLC Sublayer) • Allows upper layers to perform independently of the LAN/WAN protocol or physical media • Performs flow control for upper-layer protocols • Performs sequences of frames

  15. DLL (Media Access Control) • Maintains the physical address of a device • The physical address is also referred to as the “MAC address” • MAC address is a 48-bit address expressed as 12 hexadecimal digits • First six digits comprise manufacturer • Last six digits assigned *by* the manufacturer • Ex: FF34.2345.12AB

  16. Data Link Layer Examples: • Frame Relay; Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB); Synchronious Data Link Control (SDLC); Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) • Device: Bridge

  17. Physical Layer • Performs the mechanical and electrical functions of the OSI model • Specifies the conversion of 1s and 0s into an electrical current or pulse of light • Transmission of binary data over a communications network • Ex: Ethernet, FDDI, Token Ring • Device: Repeater

  18. Encapsulation • Protocol stack – starts at Application Layer (PDUs) • Essential to understanding how the OSI model operates • Encapsulation • De-encapsulation
