OSI Layers
•Connectors, jacks, cables etc
OSI Layers
•Provides connectivity and path selection between two host
•Provides Logical address
•No error correction, best effort delivery.
•Flow Control

Peer-to-Peer Communication
The TCP/IP Model
Comparison with OSI Layer
The TCP/IP reference model.
TCP/IP Applications
Transport Layer Protocols
Internet Layer Protocols
Network Access Protocols
Reference Models (3)
Protocols and networks in the TCP/IP model initially.
A Critique of the TCP/IP Reference Model
Problems:
• Service, interface, and protocol not distinguished
• Not a general model
• Host-to-network “layer” not really a layer
• No mention of physical and data link layers
Hybrid Model
The hybrid reference model to be used in this book.
Example Networks
• The Internet
• Connection-Oriented Networks:
X.25, Frame Relay, and ATM
• Ethernet
• Wireless LANs: 802:11
Architecture of the Internet
Overview of the Internet.
