The network layer is completing the job of translating the network addresses into lower level language and finding a route how data could be delivered.
Network equipment is having two types of addresses that help simplify delivery. There is a Network address (Network layer address, logical address, virtual address) and a physical address. If we compare the Network address with the ...
As it is clear from the name of this protocol, the idea behind Transport layer is in delivering data. It is not the only function of this layer but delivering is essential. Transport layer ensures successful delivery in correct order, without errors. Data is being verified by the recipients Transport layer. Its integrity should be exactly the same as on senders end. ...
Two different nodes in the network are connected to each other communicating. Meanwhile, it is the job of the Session layer to maintain and coordinate communications between them. While “session” means the data exchange between two workstations, the task of the Session layer is more in managing than transferring data. We would use term “session” as a connection between client ...
As it is known, every level in OSI model communicates with levels that are below and above it. The task for the presentation layer is to receive data from the application layer and translate it so application on the other side of connection would understand it. It converts the non-text data like images, pictures, photos, sounds, music, and videos to ...
The top layer of OSI model is the application layer. This layer is created for translating software or application commands and requests to language familiar to low-layer network services. The software sends security, procedural, synchronization requirements. Some of the requirements that can not be executed by Application layer are being forwarded down the OSI, while others being executed.

The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) networking model has been developed by ISO as a standard and universal set of specifications that would help and simplify communication between computers through the network.
The OSI networking model is splitting network communication into seven layers. Each layer has different protocols designed to perform specific tasks while interacting only with layers below and above.While top ...
