Summary

The OSI reference model defines the network functions that occurat each layer.

The physical layer defines the electrical, mechanical, procedural,and functional specifications for activating, maintaining, and

deactivating the physical link between end systems.

The data link layer defines how data is formatted for transmissionand how access to the physical media is controlled.

The network layer provides connectivity and path selectionbetween two host systems that may be located on geographically

separated networks.

Summary (Cont.)

The transport layer segments data from the system of the sendinghost and reassembles the data into a data stream on the systemof the receiving host.

The session layer establishes, manages, and terminates sessions

between two communicating hosts. The presentation layer ensures that the information sent at the

application layer of one system is readable by the applicationlayer of another system.

The application layer provides network services to the

applications of the user, such as e-mail, file transfer, and terminalemulation.

Summary (Cont.)

The information sent on a network is referred to as data or datapackets. If one computer wants to send data to another computer,the data must first be packaged by a process called encapsulation.

When the remote device receives a sequence of bits, the physical

layer at the remote device passes the bits to the data link layer formanipulation. This process is referred to as de-encapsulation.
