 OSI Model

What is meant by OSI Model?

The Open Systems Interconnection model is a calculated model that portrays
and institutionalizes the correspondence elements of a media transmission or
processing framework regardless of its basic inside structure and innovation.

Layers:
• Layer 1 - Physical.
• Layer 2 - Data Link.
• Layer 3 - Network.
• Layer 4 - Transport.
• Layer 5 - Session.
• Layer 6 - Presentation.
• Layer 7 - Application.

Purpose:
The motivation behind the OSI reference model is to control sellers and
engineers so the computerized correspondence items and programming programs they
make can interoperate, and to encourage a reasonable structure that depicts the
elements of a systems administration or media transmission framework.
 Connection Types

What is Client Server Connection?

Client/server is a term used to describe a computing model for the development
of computerized systems. This model is based on the distribution of functions between
two types of independent and autonomous processes; servers and clients.

Variations on Client Server:

The key to client/server power is where the requested processing takes place.
In mainframe systems and Application Server based systems all processing takes place
on the server, and the client is used to display the data screens.
With PC and File servers all processing takes place on the PC and the server is used
only for storage There are many variations of these models today. The client/server
environment provides a clear separation of server and client processes.

Types of Connections:
• TCP
• UDP

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is connection oriented, whereas UDP (User

Datagram Protocol) is connection-less. This means that TCP tracks all data sent,
requiring acknowledgment for each octet (generally). Because of acknowledgments,
TCP is considered a reliable data transfer protocol.
