The OSI model consists of 7 layers that define how data moves through a network. Layer 1 is the physical layer which defines cables and signaling. Layer 2 is the data link layer which formats data into packets and uses switches. Layer 3 is the network layer which routes data using routers. Layer 4 is the transport layer which establishes connections between computers and ensures quality control. Layer 5 is the session layer which performs security and establishes communication sessions. Layer 6 is the presentation layer which converts data into standard formats. Layer 7 is the application layer which provides services to end users for activities like sending files and reading messages.

• 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.
