Data Encapsulation
Data Encapsulation
The OSI Reference Model
•Open Systems Interconnection
•7-layer
•It divides the network communication process into
smaller and simpler components, thus
•aiding component development, design, and
troubleshooting.
• It allows multiple-vendor development through
standardization of network components.
• It encourages industry standardization by defining what
functions occur at each layer of
•the model.
• It allows various types of network hardware and
software to communicate.
Upper Layers
Lower Layers
•The OSI reference model has seven layers:
• Application layer (layer 7)
• Presentation layer (layer 6)
• Session layer (layer 5)
• Transport layer (layer 4)
• Network layer (layer 3)
• Data Link layer (layer 2)
• Physical layer (layer 1)
Layer functions
The Application Layer
•interface between the actual application program and the
next layer down
•file transfers and email.
The Presentation Layer
•It presents data to the Application
layer
•Data translation and code formatting.
•EBCDIC to ASCII translation services
• Data compression and
decompression
•Data encryption, and decryption
The Session Layer
•The Session layer is responsible for
setting up, managing, and then tearing down sessions between Presentation
layer entities.
•simplex, half duplex, and full duplex.
The Transport Layer
•segments and reassembles data into a data stream.
•connectionless or connection-oriented
•Flow Control
The Network Layer
•Route update packets
•Network addresses
==============================================
MAC Addressing
•Layer 2 Address
•48- Bit
•Hexadecimal
