Three-Layer Model

• Distributed data communications involves three primary components:– Networks– Computers– Applications

• Three corresponding layers– Network access layer– Transport layer– Application layer

Data Transmission

• Application layer creates data block• Transport layer appends header to create PDU (protocol data unit)

– Destination SAP, Sequence #, Error-Detection Code• Network layer appends another header

– Destination computer, facilities (e.g. “priority”)

Protocols in a Simplified Architecture

Operation of TCP/IP

TCP & UDP

IP Headers

Operation of TCP/IP: Action at the Sender

Operation of TCP/IP: Action at the Router

Operation of TCP/IP: Action at the Receiver

OSI

• Open Systems Interconnection

• Developed by ISO

• Contains seven layers

The OSI Environment
