    TCP uses seven flags in client-server communication: SYN, ACK, FIN, RST, PSH, URG, and RST. TCP should be used over UDP for reliable communication as TCP establishes connections, ensures delivery, and packets are delivered in order. Various technologies operate at different layers - ICMP at network, X500 at application, ARP at link, HTTP at application, IS-IS at network, IEEE 802.11 at link, EIA232 at physical, and X400 at application layer. Data compression and encryption can occur at the presentation layer in the OSI model. Data is formatted and exchanged between layers with each layer adding its own header and trailer to encapsulate the layer above.

    a) TCP is a transport layer protocol used for many well-known Internet applications.

    It uses a number
    of flags in its operation between client and server. Name SEVEN flags and how each is used in client
    server communication. (21 marks)

    b) Explain and justify whether TCP or UDP should be used as the transport layer of choice for
    reliable communication for Internet applications. (4 marks)

    c) Identify which layer (of the OSI 7 Layer Model, TCPIP Reference Model or both) these
    technologies, protocols and standards operate at and what they are used for
    i) ICMP;
    ii) X500;
    iii) ARP;
    iv) HTTP;
    v) IS-IS;
    vi) IEEE 802.11;
    vii) EIA232;
    viii) X400. (16 marks)

    d) At what layer(s) is data compression and encryption achieved in the OSI 7 layer model?
    Explain your answer. (4 marks)
    e) Explain the process by which data is formatted and exchanged between each layer of the OSI
    7 layer model. (5 marks)
