    The OSI model defines 7 layers of network communication, with each layer responsible for different functions. The application layer handles applications and data production. The presentation layer translates and encrypts data. The session layer establishes connections and handles authentication. The transport layer provides reliable data delivery and reassembly. The network layer transmits data between networks and performs routing. The data link layer delivers data to receiving devices. The physical layer defines physical connections and cabling.

    OSI Model

    Application
    The application layer is responsible for network applications (like HTTP or FTP) and their
    production of data to be transferred over the network.

    Presentation
    The presentation layer is responsible for translating data from the application layer into the
    format required to transmit the data over the network as well as encrypting the data for
    security if encryption is used.

    Session
    The session layer is responsible for connection establishment, session maintenance, and
    authentication.

    Transport
    The transport layer provides services to the application layer and receives services from the
    network layer. It is responsible for the reliable delivery of data. It segments and reassembles
    data in the correct order for the receiving device. It may also handle the reliable delivery of
    data and any retries of data that are lost or corrupted (for example, TCP does this). This layer is
    often called the heart of OSI.

    Network
    The network layer is responsible for the transmission of data between hosts in different
    networks as well as routing of data packets. This layer is implemented in routers and some
    switches.

    Data Link
    The data link layer is responsible for the delivery of data to the receiving device or node. This
    layer is implemented in switch and bridge devices as well as anything with a network interface,
    like a wireless or wired network card.

    Physical
    The physical layer is responsible for the physical connections of the devices in the network. This
    layer is implemented in hub, repeater, modem devices, and physical cabling.
