The OSI model contains up to 7 separate with their own jobs. The layer above is dependant on the layer below to function. If any errors occur on the layers below the higher layers will not be able to function/communication. TCP/IP is a common protocol on the third layer - the Network layer. If the Physical layer is not functioning correctly TCP/IP will not function. It is best to troubleshoot at layer one and move up the list due to the high dependence of the higher layers towards the lower layers. The history of the OSI layers dates back to the late 1970s. Two projects independently to achieve the same goal. One of the projects to be started by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the other by the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (CCITT). In 1983, these two documents were merged to form a standard called The Basic Reference Model for Open Systems Interconnection. The standard is usually referred to as the OSI model. It was published in 1984 by the International Organization for Standardization and Telecommunications Standardization Sector of the International Telecommunication Union (who was previously named CCITT). Almost all the layers have separate data units, except for layers seven, six, and five (Application, Presentation, and Session). Layers seven, six, and five all use regular data as their data unit. As other layers have their own unique data unit, such as the Network layer uses packets as a data unit. The Data-Link layer uses frames and the Physical layer uses bits. The Transport layer uses segments. The primary reason behind why layers one, two and three have their own unique data units is because they are the media layers. While layers four, five, six and seven ... ... middle of paper ... ...t so happen to run into corrupted data. Corrupted data can be bad for more than just not letting the transport layer succeed at its task, but it can just be a waste of space in general. So try to keep your data safe and clean, because if you don’t your data will end up corrupt and many of the seven layers in the OSI model will not function correctly. If all the 7 layers in the OSI model fail I am for one questioning if you have a PC to even test this out, and I am also concerned about you technology cleanliness. I hope you learned something about the seven layers in the OSI model in this. I know I did not go over all seven of the layers but if you want to know about the other three layers you can do your own research on those layers. It is not the easiest of topics to grasp but you can learn about the topic if you just keep working towards it and try hard to learn
In my opinion, I do not believe that no layer can be taken out of this model and the rest of it still work. All the layers work hand in hand with the others. All data comes in through the physical, goes up all the way to the application layer then back down and out through the physical layer. All of the layers are crucial players in the OSI model.
Secondly, the seven layers proposed by OSI are completely out of touch with reality. The defacto networking standard is TCP/IP. TCP/IP is the grandaddy of XNS, IPX/SPX, Banyan, AppleTalk, and a host of other protocols and pre-dates that seven layer thing because it was funded by the largest organization in the world devoted to maintaining Eurocentric socioeconomic domination; the US Military. And for some reason, that makes it better. Yeah.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an international standard-setting body that consists of qualified subject-matter experts from more than 10 countries that attempt to integrate national standards like those from the American National Standards Institute, ISO Technical Committee (TC) 215 Health Informatics, the BSI Group from the United Kingdom, and the Standards Council of Canada, to name a select few (Murphy, 2015).
Layer 1 of the OSI model is the Physical Layer. At this layer the OSI model focuses on wires, signals, and repeaters. The security threats are inadequate power, unrestricted access and open wall ports (Holl, 2003). The type of attacks that most likely affect the physical layer would come from internal employees, and spy hackers. Organizations must impact maintain power, restricted access and shutdown
Switches operate within the OSI’s layer 2. This is known as the data link layer. The data link layer is responsible for the transfer of data frames from node to node across OSI’s layer one, the physical layer. This allows layers in the upper levels to have transmissions with error checking processes. The data link layer has several responsibilities of its function in the OSI model. The first is link establishment and termination which is where, between two separate nodes, it establishes and terminates the links that connect the two. Layer two also provides traffic control for the frames in transmission.
What units are used to represent the amount of data being saved? The data used in a saved document are all measured units. “The storage capacity is expressed in terms of Bytes.” (Simply Easy Learning) After a bit, comes a nibble, which is two bits. After a nibble, is a byte, which is eight bits. These small units are not used very often in everyday life because most documents use millions of these. The bigger units are as follows;
Troubleshooting media problems on a bus networks can be very tedious, since a break in the backbone will bring down the entire LAN. For this reason, bus topology is not considered one of the more robust network topologies, compared with star or mesh. A loose or missing terminating resistor can also bring down a LAN.
...number of observations are in order. First, the ISO Development Environment (ISODE) was developed in 1990 to provide an approach for OSI migration for the DoD. ISODE software allows OSI applications to operate over TCP/IP. During this same period, the Internet and OSI communities started to work together to bring about the best of both worlds as many TCP and IP features started to migrate into OSI protocols, particularly the OSI Transport Protocol class 4 (TP4) and the Connectionless Network Layer Protocol (CLNP), respectively. Finally, a report from the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) in 1994 suggested that GOSIP should incorporate TCP/IP and drop the "OSI-only" requirement. [NOTE: Some industry observers have pointed out that OSI represents the ultimate example of a sliding window; OSI protocols have been "two years away" since about 1986.]
Section 1.4 is basically the author telling us about two important network architectures, the OSI reference model and the TCP/IP reference model. The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) deals with connecting opens systems, which are systems that talk with other systems. This model has seven layers: the physical layer, the data link layer, the network layer, the transport layer, the session layer, the presentation layer, and the application layer. From this information, we discover that the OSI model is used only for its model (the 7 layers) and not as a network architecture since it doesn’t specify the exact services and protocols to be used in each layer.

Computers in technological development demand more efficient networking. In a very short period it has changed the way we have looked at things since centuries. It is one industry that is going to shape our future for centuries to come Coming from a background of Electronics and Communication Engineering, I have developed an interest to probe into the area of Networking and Computer Networks. Hence I wish to do Masters in Computer Science (CS) as my major.
One of the main types of networking operating systems is the peer to peer type such as Appleshare or workgroups. Also, another main type is for the client-server..
