OSI MODEL:

• Its stands for open system interconnection.


• The international standard organization(ISO) based in
geneva develop standard for naional and international data
communication in 1970
• It consist of seven layers.
LAYERS OF OSI MODEL:

Layer 7- Application layer:


• Provides service to end-user.
• It interact with the operation system or
application software whenever users want to
sends files, read message or perform other
network related activities.
Layer 6 – Presentation layer:
• It takes the data provided by the
application layer and convert it into a
standard formate that the other layers can
understand.
• At receving end it also formats the
information so that it looks the way the
user can understand.
Layer 5 – session layer:
• It performs the functions that enable two
application or two peice of the same application
to communicate across the network.
• It performs security, name recognition, logging
and other similar function.
• It also establishes,maintains and end
communication with the recieving computer.
Layer 4- transport layer:
• It establish connection between two
computers on the network.
• It handels quality control by making sure
that the data recieved is in the formate
and the right order.
Layer 3 – network layer:
• It decides which physical path-way the
data should take to reach the distination.
• Router works in this layer.
Layer 2 – Data link layer:
• Its defines the format of data on the
network.
• This layer converts the data into packets
and check them before putting them on
the path-way.
• Switch is used in this layer.
Layer 1 – Physical layer:
• It defines cables and signalling.
• It provides hardware means such as
cable and connectors for sending and
receiving data. Cables,hubs and
repeaters work in this layer.
